Put Ritchie James in the starting lineup. Move pettis to kick returner. Sanders #1, Deebo #2, James #3, #4 is a weekly competition; whoever wants it needs to prove it in practice.

Richie James decision is a head scratcher. He has made plays all the time his number is called. Not sure why he doesn't see more targets.

I totally disagree that it was an embarrassment. I think the hurt feels might be self inflicted product of us living in that "undefeated bubble of confidence".
I've listened to the radio, and sports shows all day today and everyone was saying how good of a game it was, and it lived up to the hype.
Once you take your head out of the fanatic vacuum, it becomes an easier pill to swallow.
But, that is simply not realistic.
This was the Seahawks and not just another team. A hated rival deeply ingrained in history. This imbalance of power has been going on for way too long, to be precise over 7 years now.
And what is wrong in having the confidence of an undefeated team? Are you saying we don't deserve it?
Confidence doesn't equate to cockiness, most of us know a little bit about football. This Seahawks team has been scraping by week after week. Their point differential was only +18 after 9 games, meaning their average margin of victory was only 2 points for cry out loud!! And the 9ers? +133 after 8 games!! This Seahawks team isn't some powerhouse.
Sure, our tackles were garbage, the WRs were useless, but we still could have tied if not won the game.
The bolded is exactly what I mean about our minds being stuck in the Niner vacuum, or bubble. It means the world to us, but just another game to everyone else.
The truth is that it doesn't even matter who the Seahawks are even at this point. Everything that happened last night is a product of being undefeated. The biggest target is on your back and EVERY TEAM will play you like it's their superbowl. And unfortunately, the Seahawks are arguably the worst team to face in this situation. They are the prototype spoiler team.
It is what it is. Hopefully it's more of a learning lesson for the Niners.
I hope everyone feels better soon.

Only way to atone for this is to win in week 17.
Do that, and all will be well. Seems like Game 1 is always the Seahawk dominates the 49ers game. Game 2 we play better.

Hopefully everyone goes back to disrespecting the 49ers and they fly under the radar like before.
