Kaepernick will have a shot to improve his record against Seattle Thursday. But Seattle prevailed 17-7 after Frank Gore and Carlos Hyde both left with injuries. Two weeks later, Kaeperick tried just 19 passes and didn't throw an interception or a touchdown, as the 49ers tried to win the game on the ground. In the first loss Thanksgiving night at Levi's Stadium, Sherman intercepted Kaepernick twice. Seattle disposed their rival by a combined 36-10 in their two match ups in 2014. After that defeat, San Francisco was no longer a contender in the NFC under Jim Harbaugh. Of course, the changes since that game have been well documented. That's played a large part in Kaepernick going 1-5 as a starter against the Seahawks, including January 2014's conference title game, when Kaepernick played well for two and a half quarters before things unraveled quickly, when San Francisco's devastating 23-17 loss was culminated by Sherman's tipped pass to linebacker Malcolm Smith in the end zone with 30 seconds left. And a lot of that has to do with cornerback Richard Sherman.įor his career, Kaepernick has thrown six interceptions and no touchdowns when targeting Sherman in coverage, good for a passer rating of 20.4. Colin Kaepernick hasn't fared well against the Seahawks.
