It didn’t look good from the start but the San Francisco 49ers battled back and eventually beat the Seattle Seahawks by the score of 33-30 on Sunday afternoon. It was a huge win for the team as they beat a tough team on the road and improved their record to 1-1.

Joe Nedney kicked the game winning 40 yard field goal in overtime for the win. Nedney had a chance at the end of the game to win but his field goal missed and the teams went into overtime.

J.T. O’Sullivan was 20/32 for 321 yards and one touchdown. The big deal with O’Sullivan was that he didn’t throw any interceptions and kept the team in the game even though they were down 14-0 early in the game.

Issac Bruce had a great game with four catches and 153 yards. Bryan Johnson helped out the receiver corps stats with six catches for 78 yards and one touchdown.

The running game was slowed down by the Seahawks defense as Frank Gore only had 61 yards on 19 carries. He did find paydirt once in the game however. Once again, Gore lost a fumble however as he just can’t seem to hold onto the ball a lot of times.

On the defensive side of the ball, Patrick Willis returned an interception back 86 yards for a touchdown. Willis also led the team with 8 tackles which were all solo. The defense sit back and controlled the Seahawks passing game as they only rushed with a four man front most of the game. The plan worked as they caused three tournovers and held down the Seahawks offense just enough to get the victory.

The niners will now play the Detroit Lions on Sunday afternoon. They have a very good shot at winning this game and improving to 2-1 on the season. I look for a 49ers victory by 7-10 points.
