The Seahawks came to play and they almost pulled off another 4th quarter come-from-behind win. But the 'Niner defense, combined with a Seattle clock error, provided a league title for San Francisco, and, more importantly, a bye weekend in the playoffs.
The game started well for the City boys. 9 plays and they scored in the first qtr. Then, they scored again, adding a field goal, 10-0. Late in the 2nd qtr, another field goal, 13-0. Hmmm. Was it over for the 'Hawks? Not quite. In the 2nd half, they came out to play. Soon, it was 13-7; then 20-14; then, 23-21. Then 26-21, and the Hawks were on the move. They had 1st and goal at the 2 yd line of the City boys. A winning TD looked likely. With 9 seconds to go, The local QB threw a pass which was caught mere inches from the goal line. The 49ers took over on the 1" line. Jimmie Garappolo kept the ball and pushed forward and the game ended. Home town fans were disappointed by a lot.
They could meet again soon.
