With the 49ers leading 17-13 late in the fourth quarter, quarterback Geno Smith led the Seahawks downfield on a 11-play, 80-yard touchdown drive to retake the lead with only 12 seconds left on the clock. Fred Warner was visibly disappointed after the game when asked about those final plays on the field by the defense. "We just couldn't get a stop," the 49ers linebacker said. "Geno, kudos to him using his legs to extend the drive and ultimately get in the end zone. We've got to find a way, and we didn't." The 49ers' loss put them in a three-way tie for second place in the NFC West, which is likely the only path the 5-5 team can take to earn an NFL playoff spot. No teams officially have been eliminated at this point, but each loss decreases the 49ers' chances to make the postseason. The loss also marked the third time this season that the 49ers have surrendered a fourth-quarter lead to a division foe. "It's just infuriating, honestly," Warner said.
