Though the Seahawks never reached the red zone, Jason Myers nailed two field goals to keep the visitors within a score heading into the break.
used a pair of 50-plus yard field goals by Jason Myers and strong run defense to hang tight with the San Francisco 49ers and went into the break trailing 7-6 at Levis Stadium.
With San Francisco's run game mostly held in check - Brock Purdy did take off for 32 yards on three carries, including a 10-yard touchdown run - Seattle generated a bit more pressure on the quarterback and produced three pass breakups. Most notably, cornerback Devon Witherspoon popped a pass intended for McCaffrey up in the air early in the second quarter and defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins reeled in his first career interception off the carom.
Unfortunately, Seattle couldn't keep Smith clean, sticking with an ugly season-long trend with porous pass protection. After the quarterback marched the offense inside San Francisco's 30-yard line, right tackle Abraham Lucas got beat by Nick Bosa, who teamed up with Leonard Floyd for a sack and a seven-yard loss. Myers managed to salvage the drive with a 52-yard boot to give the Seahawks a 3-0 lead.
