The NFC Conference Championship Review

The NFC

The San Francisco 49ers were on the road in Seattle at the CenturyLink Field where they met a tragic end to their season whereas the Seattle Seahawks continue their season to the Super Bowl where they meet the winner of the AFC Championship game.

The Game

The Seahawks started off with the ball only to fumble and turn it over one play later. The 49ers were inefficient on their drive as they put 3 points on the board even though they started 15 yards out. The Seahawks were ineffective on their next drive. The 49ers went up 10 points with a one yard touchdown run by Anthony Dixon. Seahawks went 10-3 down with a field goal by Stephen Hauschka for Seattle

Second Half

Seattle leveled the score with a 40 yard touchdown run by Marshawn Lynch and Russel Wilson's habit of not losing at home seemed to be coming true. Less than three minutes later in the third quarter Kaepernick threw a 26 yard touchdown to Anquan Boldin. It seemed that last years Super Bowl losers seemed to give it another go. But Russel didn't listen as he drove down the field in less than 3 minutes to set up a field goal for Hauschka. San Francisco turned the ball over in a three and out and Russel Wilson responded with a touchdown to Jermaine Kearse and soon after drove down the field to get a field goal.However Kaepernick refused to give up as he drive down the field in three minutes to lead his team to Seattle's 5 yard line but being the best pass defence Richard Sherman makes and incredible pass deflect despite being off balance and 2 yards away from his man which resulted in an interception by Smith to send Seattle to the Super Bowl for the second time. They one of four teams to not win the Super Bowl but this year might be it. Enjoy Watching!
