now, abc7 sports with chris alvarez. >> last year the 49ers and the seahawks two, matchups were decided in the final second. seattle won in overtime that ended their undefeated season. and the niners got revenge. would it be a similar finish in their first meeting? this year jimmy g. flashing a

smile. but that wouldn't last. second quarter rookie hasty big moment for him year. his first career touchdown, reaches out, 7-6, san francisco. but russell wilson throws two touchdown passes to d.k. metcalf. 12 catches, 161 yards, two scores. seahawks up 6 at the break. then all goes south. dante pettis gets hit. ball was definitely out, pettis left with a shoulder injury that. led to this. look at wilson just so elusive. finds david moore, 27-7, seahawks, garoppolo pressured all day. he was sacked three times and goes down awkwardly here. he's in a struggle on the sideline left with an ankle injury. that's not good. nick mullens would come in for garoppolo. and then kittle, george, gets hit in the back. he left the game with a foot injury. this just not good.

general manager john lynch is concerned. the niners lose by 10. they're 4-4 overall. they will host green bay on tuesday. i mentioned cal's aaron rodgers in clara thursday night. but dalvin cook had four touchdowns for the vikings. minnesota was up 28-14 at one point. packers down six. rogers trying to create some of that hail mary's magic. the vikings recover. so is it a fumble or incomplete? the play would stand. it is a fumble. packers lose by six. so thursday night it is packers and 49ers. that should be interesting, to say the least. rookie tua tagovailoa making a start against the rams. he threw for just 93 yards and he did have that touchdown. he'll remember that forever. that's because the dolphins' defense did a number. it's going to be returned for 78 yards. l.a. turns it over four times in

the first half. goff, two interceptions and the raps lose 28-17. winds up to 36 miles an hour in cleveland for the browns and raiders. just blustery. whoa, look at the wind there. bangs up off the upright. carlson's only miss of the game though. keeping that ball low with cody parkey, browns take the lead. but fourth quarter, 6 all 3rd and goal. derek carr too and hunter renfrow, 120 yards but no picks. it was cold there. they're now 4-3. on this date ten years ago today the giants won the world series over the rangers. the beard, brian wilson finishes with a striker. san francisco won in 2012 and 2014. bocce, always great to see these guys. the team's motto

asof being stretched too thinar to do my job right. and it's not just health care workers. our teachers and school staff are going the extra mile for our kids. our firefighters are taking on unthinkable missions to keep us safe. how can we keep giving billions in tax breaks to rich corporations when our communities need that money? prop 15 closes corporate loopholes and invests in our schools, health care, and public safety. help us do our jobs. vote yes on 15.
