The Seattle Seahawks are not in awe of the San Francisco 49ers.
They are looking to defeat the NFC West champions for the first time in three meetings this season — now the postseason — and have taken the lead after falling behind by double digits.
This was the second TD drive of more than 70 yards for the Seahawks and its final play was a stunner.
Geno Smith went deep and found DK Metcalf running down the sideline.
Fifty yards later, the brilliant wideout was in the end zone, and, after Jason Myers’ PAT, the Seahawks held a 14-10 lead in the second quarter.
