SEATTLE, WA — The San Francisco 49ers continued their dominance over the NFC West, defeating the Seattle Seahawks 25-10 at Lumen Field to remain undefeated in Week 3. Behind a suffocating defense and steady offensive performance, head coach Jeffrey Jarin’s squad reaffirmed their position atop the division, while Seattle struggled to find consistency.

Game Recap

San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy orchestrated a strong second quarter, throwing a 3-yard touchdown to Brandon Aiyuk and leading two drives that resulted in field goals by Jake Moody. Seattle kicker Jason Myers hit a 54-yarder to keep it close at halftime, but the 49ers entered the break with a 10-7 lead.
