The 49ers overcame rain and a halftime deficit to rally past the Seattle Seahawks for a 41-23 wild-card playoff win over the Seahawks.
SANTA CLARA – Here is how the 49ers graded in Saturday’s 41-23 wild-card playoff win over the Seattle Seahawks :Brock Purdy stepped it up big time after halftime when he completed 9-of-11 passes for 185 yards with two touchdowns. That added to his incredible mystique through seven games since replacing an injured Jimmy Garoppolo. Purdy finished with 18-of-30 for 332 yards with three touchdown passes, as well as the go-ahead, 1-yard touchdown run.

San Francisco 49ers’ Christian McCaffrey scores a first quarter touchdown in the NFC wild-card playoff game, Saturday, Jan. 14, 2023, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif. This is not a historically great defense if it continues to yield a big play, such as D.K. Metcalf’s 50-yarder against Charvarius Ward for the first of Metcalf’s two touchdowns. But it’s an extremely strong defense that can go down as one of the 49ers’ all-time best with three more wins.

Metcalf makes a touchdown catch in front of San Francisco 49ers’ Charvarius Ward in the second quarter of their NFC wild-card playoff game at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., on Saturday, Jan. 14, 2023. Rookie Kenneth Walker III got 9 yards on the game’s first snap, and he had 54 yards by halftime.
