The San Francisco 49ers didn’t exactly put on an impressive showing against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 3, falling on the road 37-18 to their NFC West division rival. Niner Noise takes a look at all things good, bad and ugly from this contest.

The San Francisco 49ers have given up a combined 947 all-purpose yards over back-to-back weeks.

This number was inflated by the Niners’ troubling 37-18 Week 3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks at CenturyLink Field.

The score suggests this game was closer than it really was. San Francisco found itself trailing after only the third play from scrimmage and was behind 24-3 at the half.

Not surprisingly, there isn’t a lot of good emanating from this contest. Still, we’ll try to wring out as much good from where we can. And we’ll also dive into the bad and ugly aspects from the 49ers’ Week 3 road defeat.

Yeah, you can already guess the Niners run defense is a part of the problem. And quarterback Blaine Gabbert?

Well, yeah.

So sit down, strap in and start grimacing as Niner Noise breaks down what happened last Sunday.
