In San Francisco, the 49ers have a discipline problem and it cost them big on Sunday. Linebacker Dre Greenlaw was ejected in the second quarter against Seattle after a late hit followed by a head-butt on a helmetless Zay Jones — a stunning moment that left the Niners shorthanded in a divisional fight they could not afford to lose.
Speaking of that game, the Seahawks took full advantage, with Jaxon Smith-Njigba hauling in a touchdown to push Seattle ahead twenty-three to twenty-one. That San Francisco defense, already undermanned, is going to have a long flight home after letting a divisional rival take control in a game with serious playoff seeding implications on the line.
Meanwhile, Kyler Murray reminded everyone exactly what he is capable of. The Vikings quarterback scrambled seven times Sunday — his most in a single game since two thousand twenty — and delivered a vintage performance that had Minnesota walking away with the win. Murray's legs were electric, and the Vikings are making a statement nobody saw coming this early in the season.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
