Niners Run Over the Seahawks

Today the Niners played the Seattle Seahawks in their home opener. After seeing what Seattle did last week vs. the Rams, I was a little worried that Hasselbeck would pass all over us. However he did no such thing for the most part even when he was in the game. The Niners defense played exceptionally well only allowing 10 points in the first half and allowing no points in the second half. True Hasselbeck was injured just before half time but Wallace has proven himself a good reliever.

The Niners won this game on the ground attack. After a bad game rushing the ball last week vs. the Cardinals, the Niners came back with a few changes apparently and Frank Gore ran for a 79 Yard Td run in the 1st quarter and then a 80 yard TD run in the 3rd quarter. These were are only two TDs for the Niners and they got the job done. Gore ran for 207 yards on the day. Shaun Hill helped the Niners very little in this game except for the big drive in the 4th quarter which ate up a lot of clock. Meanwhile the Niners defense held the Seahawks back throughout the second half. Another great defensive game. Next for the Niners is the Vikings. Uh Oh!!!

P.S. I will review the rest of today's games tonight after the Giants-Cowboys game.
