Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman (25) celebrates with cornerback Byron Maxwell (41) after intercepting San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick as wide receiver Michael Crabtree (15) walks past during their game in Santa Clara, Calif., on Nov. 27, 2014.SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Richard Sherman set up the only touchdown with another key defensive play in this heated rivalry, then made a second interception with the 49ers driving late, and the Seattle Seahawks ended a five-game losing streak on San Francisco's home field with a 19-3 win Thursday night.
Steven Hauschka kicked four field goals and the Seahawks' stout defense held Colin Kaepernick and Michael Crabtree in check as Seattle (8-4) overcame 14 penalties for 105 yards, including an offensive pass interference that negated a touchdown.
Russell Wilson passed for 236 yards and thoroughly outplayed Kaepernick, who had one of his worst performances for the 49ers (7-5).
After his second pick, Sherman looked at those fans still remaining in half-empty stadium on a Thanksgiving night and gave them the hush sign with his pointer finger to his mouth, then waved goodbye. The Seahawks won by the identical score they beat first-place Arizona five days earlier.
Kaepernick was just 16 for 29 for 121 yards.
