@@beanteam2217 true. I'm assuming you're referring to the Shanahan 9ers. Different teams. Harbaugh 9ers were deeper at lb whereas the Shanahan 9ers were deeper on the line. Both great defenses but I think I'd lean towards the 9ers d from the early 2010's. Physical af.
@@mattl8774 yea the linebacker core was def better. However, that 2020 team did still have Fred Warner. But the 2012 team had bowman and Willis and they were legit. Patrick probably the best in the league at the time.
There was nothing better than the Seahawks 49ers games on Sunday night football with Collinsworth and Michaels. Some of the best produced, best battles in my lifetime, dont think ill ever feel the same watching football. Noone esle like Marshawn Lynch, and these 2 defenses.
This whole Defense squad was the best mane. The squad that brought back the joy of being a 49ers fan after so many yrs of not even making the playoffs.
In that game lynch had 98 yards rushing 37 yards receiving and 3 tds against those linebackers a total of 135 yards against them I'm no Seahawks fan but yall way overhype. 135 total yards and 3 td is getting killed man sorry not sorry.
The 49ers and Seahawks defences in the past were brutal and almost nothing got passed them so believe me when I say, as a 49ers fan, the Seahawks were our absolute equal most of the time!
How many times have you seen someone make Marshawn Lynch go backwards and walk off the field? Patrick Willis won the war, but they defiantly got each other on some battles, both beasts. Patrick Willis, future HOF.
@@ryanr812 you keep tossing out these irrelevant stats. The video broke down every play they actually interacted. If Patrick had 5 tackles for losses, 3 sacks & 2 ints none of which came against Lynch would you count that?
What makes Willis so good was his fundamentals. You just don't see that kind of stuff anymore, no matter what, if Willis touched someone he always had his arms wrapped low around their legs and would stop any forward momentum from the opposing RB in doing so, or would initiate the stop and let the 2-3 defenders coming right after him finish the tackle. It was just picture perfect play from a Middle Linebacker.
pat was a true linebacker, you dont see him get drag around like that glorified strong safety name fred warner..warner never mention willis in his top 5 linebackers, he mad cause fans still love willis and considered willis the better linebacker.
i more or so believe it was a tie no way certain either won the matchup lol, both made good plays on one another and also look at how much bigger willis is to lynch the man is a monster and lynch put one arm to his chest and he went to the ground so before we judge who won let’s jus sit back and watch the greatness that the league has left behind
This was one game. In 2012, Willis killed it against the seahawks with lynch. In 2013, Bowman had alot of the shine. So ya lynch had better stats and the seahawks kicked the 9ers asses that game, but as you can see head to head was always a dog fight between these guys and amazing to watch. How football should be played from 2 of the best to do it.
i was hoping to see a stiff arm like he did to the saints on that one highlight reel but it was actually a tackle for a loss i think. either way both were at war and are ridiculous talents, both HOFers. congrats. NFL so different 10 years ago
@@crispycream6385 Fair enough but I think he knew where he was on the field so he may have been trying to simply push Lynch the few inches he needed to get him out of bounds. You can see he normally breaks down when he's trying to tackle. On that play he didn't break down at all. Just kinda lunged at him a little off balance The very first play showed what happens when they both squared up. They ran into each other like Wild Rams and both were knocked back by one another. Then the Niners gang trackled Lynch. But one on one completely alone and squared up... it was a tie
I can see they both feeling the hit Willis was slow to get up and you can tell he’s a bit concussed but is fighting to continue playing while marshawn stepped off for a play
You guys have to realize how much bigger Willis was and Lynch still knocking them guys around🤣 willis was around 240-50 and 6’1 Lynch was 215 and 5’11. That’s 2 inches and 25-35 extra pounds
Having to get past Justin and Aldon Smith just to deal with Patrick Willis and Navarro Bowman is INSANE. Lynch was really Beast Mode and that 9ers D was TOUGH
You have to look at the stat line of Patrick Peterson. In his prime he was averaging 150-200 yards a game. If you look at his game log over those years against SF he was pedestrian at best due to Patrick Willis shutting him down
As a steelers fan, I wonder why you guys called him Kratos the God of War. Its was not only he dress in red and gold like him. He always hit just like him....Makes sense, Patrick Willis is him.....
I was seeing an avg of 3 to 4 yards that’s not to bad on top of that mean ass stiffy he gave Patrick Willis. So what’s the big deal it ain’t like completely stopped him
@Mr. Josiah Na I remember these games live I went to school with lynch and those years he owned the niners no other running back ran for 100 yards that year but lynch that's facts bro
That niners d gets forgotten because they didn’t win it all and had like several felon players. They were jus as physical if not more physical than LOB. I know u can’t tell a Seahawk fan that but it’s true
Notice how you said Willis AND Bowman, not just Willis. Willis had help on just about every single one of those plays. Either that or Lynch was already falling forward. Pat rarely got to him one on one.

That san fran defense was nasty at its peak. Having bowman and Willis in the middle was almost unfair.
PATRICK WILLIS is the greatest 49ers linebacker in my lifetime
What about Fred Warner?
Not even close Warner is better on the pass but that’s it. Willis hit people and they didn’t go back to it some teams.
Willis is a top 3 lb all time. Of course he's the best 49ers lb you ever saw
@@kenw2225 luke kuechly was better
One of the greatest ever and I'm a KC fan. Top 5 for sure
As a 49ers fan, Willis will forever be one of my favorites.
When I play as the canton greats in madden I usually start him over Ray
man those early 2010s niners teams were something else. Sad it ended the way it did
I enjoy watching Willis & Lynch go at each other
With those LBs of SF , you needed a RB like Lynch
Those were the years Seattle had our number. When we won we won by a few points. when they won it was almost a blowout...
Lynch had 135 total yards and 3 TD’s this game. Lynch was great but Willis was also good. The Seahawks were just better won 29-3
I miss Pat. I cried when he retired
The 49ers and Seahawks defences in the past were brutal and almost nothing got passed them so believe me when I say, as a 49ers fan, the Seahawks were our absolute equal most of the time!

He was not “knocking them around” dumbass comment, if you above 210 and under 6 ft you have the advantage everytime you run the ball
Honestly Aldon Smith was fun to watch and I hate the niners. But smith gave defenses hell with his quickness. And he could hit hard
