Seahawks All-22 film review: The good and bad from another home loss to the 49ers

The Seattle Seahawks fell short in a 32–29 loss to the San Francisco 49ers at home, a defeat that left fans frustrated despite flashes of promise. Seattle’s offense, led by Jaxon Smith-Njigba’s standout performance (5 catches, 102 yards, and a touchdown), struggled with execution, compounded by four costly turnovers that the 49ers capitalized on for 21 points.

The Seahawks’ offensive line failed to protect quarterback Sam Darnold effectively, while the defense couldn’t consistently contain San Francisco’s most dangerous offensive threat when it mattered most. Despite these struggles, Seattle’s talent shone through in moments, with Smith-Njigba continuing to dominate as the league’s leading receiver (37 catches, 583 yards, and seven touchdowns through five games).

The loss, however, underscores the team’s reliance on Smith-Njigba and the need for improved consistency across the board as the NFC West race tightens.
