Niner Noise looks at the five biggest takeaways from the San Francisco 49ers’ Week 12 home loss to the Seattle Seahawks and what they mean moving forward.

The San Francisco 49ers are going to have to wait until 2018 for their next chance to end their losing streak to the Seattle Seahawks — one that dates back to 2014.

San Francisco suffered its 10th loss of 2017, falling to Seattle 24-13 at Levi’s Stadium in Week 12. On paper, it looked like an upset might have been brewing. The Niners were fresh off their bye week and riding the momentum from their first win of the season in Week 10 against the New York Giants.

Meanwhile, a banged-up Seahawks squad was traveling on a short week from playing on Monday Night Football the week before.

Regardless, the more-talented team won. But that doesn’t mean this NFC West showdown was without storylines or consequences.

The 49ers saw quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo in a real in-game situation in Week 12. Fans were also rewarded with a healthy front seven on defense.

And yet some of the same problems the Niners have experienced all year continued in this bout.

Let’s take a look at the five biggest takeaways from San Francisco’s most recent defeat and break down why each one is important moving forward.
