Week 3 @ Seattle Seahawks – LOSS

Ouch. The schedule gods have not been kind in handing the 49ers a trip to the Pacific Northwest on the back of the cross-country trek to Charlotte.

And the outcome will be a familiar one for Niners fans.

San Francisco has not won in Seattle since 2011, rolling over in every game since, save for the gut-wrenching NFC Championship game loss in 2014.

Kelly will not coach scared as Jim Tomsula did in last season’s corresponding fixture. But Russell Wilson and Co. are used to dissecting the 49ers defense while shutting down the offense. And there is little to suggest the Niners will be able to stop them from doing so again.
