It has been a fun season, and this game was a wild ride to be sure. Following some back and forth early on, the San Francisco 49ers remembered that the Seattle Seahawks decided to not field a defense today and then it was all over.
We all know the story; nobody thought the Seahawks had anything going for them this year, and that was an awful loss ... But it doesn’t erase what ended up being a much more fun season than practically anybody would have predicted (me included). Following the massively disappointing showing in the second half, fans sounded off with words of frustration, but also with a lot of hope and encouragement. The future looks brighter for this team today than it did last summer, and they head into the offseason with a draft haul to look forward to and at least a decent number of exciting young players who can step up in 2023.

What a season it has been from the #Seahawks. They were counted out from the start and they gave so many of us hope that we didn’t think we would have. I feel so hopeful for this teams future and excited for what the off-season will bring! #GoHawks

The 49ers are an incredible team. Seattle needed to be perfect today and, for 30 minutes, they were pretty damn close.

Water found its level in the second half.
Work to do this offseason, but one hell of a ride. Cheers to the Seahawks for a really fun year.
i don't think they should but i wouldn't be shocked if someone on the defensive staff gets fired

Officiating has called 2 highly questionable lineman downfield calls (ball had gone in split second, lineman was right at the allowed 1 yard extra)
— Matty F. Brown (@mattyfbrown) January 15, 2023
Yet ignored some egregious Ward recovery holding/pass interference versus DK Metcalf. Tough breaks for the #Seahawks. Now or never
As frustrating as this second half of football has been, I’m not even mad. Truly. This was an incredible season! Absolutely defied expectations. The future is BRIGHT!

Welp that’s it but Eagles will get them

Against the #49ers it's really damn hard to win unless you have a perfect game. The #Seahawks did a phenomenal job in the first half but busted coverages, no pressure on the QB, two turnovers, and bad tackling is pretty much it. Too much damn talent on their offense.

Seahawks had one heck of a season!

I don’t care what anyone says. This season was FUN. Geno is HIM. And our future looks bright. Looking forward to next season. pic.twitter.com/It6fDbChNa

Well shit. I'm in tears, really thought we could do this today. What an emotional game. So heartbroken.
— That Seahawk Gal (@Teresa4ever12) January 15, 2023
Awesome season and fought hard as hell. Blew all expectations out of the water. Rigged since we been down 14 but that’s okay, we were gonna lose at that point anyway. We need to replace much of front 7, draft a qb, and some o line help.

I’m extremely happy that DK Metcalf got a chance to remind the world that he is a fucking superstar

1 sec later, Geno throws an interception.
Dad: That's it.
Seattle has really missed Jordyn Brooks today.

Is it too late for the Seahawks to take like a class or something on tackling

So…remember that time the #Seahawks beat the #Broncos this season? pic.twitter.com/w0Co1ARsZP
— Mikaela Mattes (@mikaelamattes) January 15, 2023
1. Beat broncos. 2. Geno beat all his old teams. 3. We MADE playoffs. 4. Russell did not 5. Russell finished last in his division……
— Brittany Naidu (@itsbritlike4sur) January 15, 2023
I'll say this. The 49ers look like a Super Bowl winner and Seattle led at the half. No one expected anything from the Seahawks this year. But 2024, Seattle is going to be really good.
— 12th Man Rising (@12thMan_Rising) January 15, 2023
Since Pete has been our coach, how many years have we missed the playoffs? 3 yrs (2011, 2017, 2021)
— I Just Wanna Know (@Stay1nTheKnow) January 15, 2023
How many have we won 0 games?
3 yrs (2018, 2020, 2022)
1 game?
5 yrs (2010, 2012, 2015, 2016, 2019)
2 games?
1 yr (2014)
3 games?

I still want Geno back.

This team is going to be so good next season.
Et c'est sur cette défaite que s'achève notre saison.
— Seahawks France (@SeahawksFrance) January 15, 2023
Victoire méritée des 49ers.
Merci encore à toute la communauté NFL FR pour cette incroyable saison encore une fois, et merci au Seahawks Twitter toujours présent depuis la France les US et partout ailleurs !
GO HAWKS
The Seahawks had a successful season and the arrow is very much pointing up thanks to their young core and a ton of 2023 draft capital. But the 49ers gave them another reminder today of how far Seattle has to go to catch up. San Fran beat them by a combined 89-43 in three wins.

Illegal man downfield calls will be the death of me

Seattle was pegged to have a top 5 pick before the season.

This game was close for 3 quarters. There's no shame here.
