The Seahawks saw a comeback effort fall short in a 32-29 loss to the 49ers on Sunday, their second loss this season that featured multiple, costly turnovers. In addition to that final score, here 12 numbers that help tell the story of the loss, which dropped Seattle's record to 3-2.
4
Turnovers committed by the Seahawks on Sunday, bringing their 2026 total to nine this season, tied for fifth most in the NFL, eight of which have come in the last three games. Five games into the season, the Seahawks have committed two turnovers in their three victories, and seven in their two losses.
45
Points off of turnovers for Seattle's last three opponents including 21 for the 49ers on Sunday and 21 in the Seahawks' other loss, a Week 3 defeat at Washington.
11
Points scored by the 49ers on their nine possessions that did not start after a Seahawks turnover. On those nine possessions, the 49ers got a touchdown and a field goal, punted five times, going three and out three times, and committed two turnovers.
14 and 269
First downs and yards gained for the 49ers, their lowest totals of the season by a wide margin, and another sign that the Seahawks defense played much better than the scoreboard would indicate.
4.8
Yards per play average for the 49ers, the fifth time in as many games a Seahawks opponent has been held under 5.0 yards per play. For comparison, 21 of 32 NFL teams are averaging at least 5.0 yards per play this season.
3
Takeaways by Seattle's defense and special teams on Sunday, bringing Seattle's total to 11 this season, the most in the NFL.
102 and 1
Receiving yards and touchdowns for Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who leads the NFL in both categories with 583 yards and seven touchdowns through five games. And while Smith-Njigba was hard on himself after the game for the catch he didn’t make, it's worth highlighting that with Sunday's performance, Smith joined Hall of Famers Elroy Hirsch, Jerry Rice and Randy Moss as the only players in NFL history with 100-plus receiving yards and a touchdown in four of their team's first five games to start a season.
2
Sacks recorded by defensive tackle Byron Murphy II, the first two sacks 49ers Brock Purdy has taken all season. Linebacker Ernest Jones IV also added one, giving the Seahawks three total sacks. Murphy also totaled six tackles and three tackles for loss.
2
Takeaways created by cornerback Nehemiah Pritchett, who had a big hit as a gunner on punt coverage to knock an already muffed punt away from returner Jacob Cowing, and an interception of Purdy, just the second he has thrown this season. The interception was Pritchett's second of the season, matching Julian Love for the team lead.
5
Field goals made by kicker Jason Myers on as many attempts. It's the seventh time in Myers' career, postseason included, that he has made at least five field goals in a game, with the most recent being Super Bowl LX.
2
Muffed punts by Seahawks opponents in as many games, turnovers that were no doubt caused in part by Michael Dickson's ability to use different styles of punts and spin to make life challenging for returners.
46
Penalty yards for the Seahawks on five penalties, a huge improvement from a week earlier when they had a franchise-record 150 penalty yards on 14 penalties.
