The Seahawks go into the playoffs as the best team in the NFC West after their win over the San Fransico 49ers.
Hawks will also maintain homefield advantage going into the playoffs as the No. 1 seed and a first-round bye seed because of Saturday’s win.
They started a little rocky for the Seahawks quarterback, Sam Darnold, with a sack close to the endzone.
However, Darnold recovered with a toss to Zach Charbonnet, who carried the ball 27 yards for a touchdown in the first quarter.
Charbonet rushed for 74 yards and scored the sole touchdown in the game.
Kenneth Walker III contributed with 97 yards in Saturday night’s win.
Darnold hit a significant milestone in over 4,000 yards passed in a single season. Right, now he is at 4,048. He passed for 198 yards in this game.
In the second quarter, both teams’ defenses held the score at 7-0.
However, both teams scored a field goal each at halftime, putting the score at 10-3.
The impressive defense from both teams continued into the 3rd and 4th quarters.
The 4th quarter started with a major turnover when Drake Thomas intercepted 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy’s pass intended for ChristianMcCaffrey.
Darnold was able to thread the ball to get kicker Jason Meyers into the sweet spot for field goal range.
Meyers has been a great asset to the Seahawks’ offense this season.
However, Meyers’ performance was off tonight. He missed a field goal in the second quarter.
He missed another field goal in the 4th quarter as the game neared the 2-minute warning at 2:24 left on the clock, leaving the score 13-3.
But the Seahawks held off the 49ers to win 13-3.
The Seahawks will find out who they will be facing in the playoffs after the outcome of next week’s games.
