Bobby Wagner – Noteworthy
LB Bobby Wagner had a huge game against the 49ers. Along with finishing the contest with a team-best 12 tackles, Wagner became the first Seahawk to return an interception for a touchdown, force a fumble, recover a fumble, and record a quarterback sack in the same game.
On the interception, Wagner jumped a route at the goal line and raced 98 yards for the longest pick six in franchise history.
When revisiting the game-clinching play, Wagner said, “I kind of watched film that when they have two by two, or whatever, if he didn’t have anything he might try to throw it to the back. So I was trying to make it look like I didn’t see the back and when he threw it to the middle, I just broke on it, caught it, and tried to score and make sure I didn’t get caught by the quarterback because I would never hear the end of that for the rest of the year.”
Rashaad Penny – Noteworthy
RB Rashaad Penny finished with 65 yards on only seven carries Sunday. Penny said he’s seeing the game much slower, adding, “With me practicing harder and making the right reads and doing a little film study with my coaching and the other running backs, I think that’s going to make a difference. That’s just how it is.”
Russell Wilson – Noteworthy
QB Russell Wilson torched the 49ers secondary with three touchdowns in his first six attempts. He finished with four touchdown passes and a total of 185 yards passing.
