Anquan Boldin Could be X Factor in Seattle

Sep 10, 2013 at 9:45 AM--


Almost nothing went right for the 49ers when they traveled to Seattle last December.The Seahawks jumped on the Niners early, taking a 21-0 lead less than a minute into the second quarter en route to a 42-13 victory at CenturyLink Field. The noise of the Seahawks' 12th Man seemed to unnerve San Francisco, which absorbed its most lopsided defeat in the Jim Harbaugh era.Cornerback Carlos Rogers said afterward that the whole Seattle experience was "a punch in the face."Now the 1-0 49ers travel again to CenturyLink to face the 1-0 Seahawks in a nationally televised Sunday night game, and some have wondered if the 49ers will be able to cope with the noise and a pumped-up division rival with that wipeout still fresh in their minds.One thing the 49ers will have in their favor this time, however, is wide receiver Anquan Boldin.Boldin should be a steadying presence for the 49ers in a hostile environment.

Why the skepticism from fans? The 49ers' free agency focus has been on revamping their defensive front. After allowing Arik Armstead, Chase Young, and others to depart for other organizations, the team addressed last season's inconsistent play by adding defensive ends Leonard Floyd and Yetur Gross-Matos, trading for defensive tackle Maliek
