It was a very close game and even though it's another lose to
add to the stat sheet and yes it means we are 0-3 there were
some good things that happened against the Seahawks. The defense
stepped up and kept the team in the game. And they only lost by
3 points. Plus we might have our future quarterback at least for
this season anyway. Dorsey had his first career start today and
he didn't do to bad. He might not have lighted up the stats, but
he had a good game. Not bad for his first career start. He was
23 for 30 for 197 yards. He was even able to throw 2 touchdown
passes. Which is the most throw by a 49er quarterback this year.
He had a passer rating of 115.6 and his completion percentage
was 77%. He was on target and he didn't throw many bad passes
and he was able to stand his ground. Dennis Erickson wanted to
keep the game simple for Ken and it showed by Dorsey having a
good game. Barlow was able to help his young QB out. He rushed
for 66 yards on 12 carries and was able to catch 5 passes for 23
yards and scored a touchdown. But his main receiver really
stepped up and helped him have a good game. Lloyd had a big
game. Best game of the season, he had 9 receptions for 83 yards
and 1 touchdown. Other than that no one else really had a crazy
good game. Wilson had 4 receptions for 33 yards and Tight End
Johnson had 3 catches for 31 yards. As you can tell the offense
didn't have a massive great game. They had the type of game that
kept them in it and gave them a chance to win. They did enough
but not enough to win it. But the offense showed some real
promise and if they can keep that kind of play up next week
against the Rams they might win, just maybe. Now the side of the
ball that really controlled the game in a way. The Niners
defense was the real talk of the game. They were doing whatever
they could to win the game. Rumph was able to have one heck of a
game. It was almost like Hasselbeck didn't know that he wasn't
on his team. Cause Rumph was able to get to picks. One of them
was a really bad pass and the other he was able to jump the
receiver and get in front of it. He also had himself 3 tackles.
Now the guy who shocked me with his interecption was Young. The
defensive tackle he had a pass thrown right to him and he tried
to run it all the way back. Didn't get far but you can't blame
the big man for trying to get a touchdown for himself. Parrish
and Heard lead the Niners with 6 tackles and 5 tackles. They
were all over the field today. Peterson was able to get himself
4 tackles on the day as well. They rushed the quarterback a lot
which might of lead to so many picks. But with all that pressure
they put on the Seahawks they we're only able to sack Hasselbeck
once. Engelberger was able to get the lonely sack for the team.
He added a sack to go with his 2 tackles on the day. Now after
saying what they did good they still have up 481 yards on the
day. Now even though they gave up 481 yards they still we're
able to keep themselves in the game. They gave up 312 yards
passing and 169 yards rushing. Alexander was able to run through
them like it was nothing. He even managed to bust out a 55 yard
run.
If they can tighten up the defense up a little and if the
offense can score a little more then what they did they might
have a chance against the Rams. Not much of a chance but their
game play today was definitely the best of the season.
