Big Dill Sports rolls into Lumen Field, and the Niners walked out with a gritty Week 1 dub, 49ers 17, Seahawks 13. San Francisco’s offense set the pace with 396 yards to Seattle’s 234, and when the air got thin late, the red and gold kept their cool.

This was the Brock show. Brock Purdy (26/35, 277 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT) played point guard to perfection, flicking touchdowns to tight ends — George Kittle (4/4, 25 yards, 1 TD) and Jake Tonges (3/3, 15 yards, 1 TD) — and letting his new burner stretch the seams as Ricky Pearsall (4/7, 108 yards) stacked chunk plays. Christian McCaffrey did the Swiss Army routine again — 22 rushes for 69 and 9 catches for 73 — a cool 142 scrimmage yards that kept the chains humming.

Seattle didn’t fold. Jaxon Smith-Njigba (9/13, 124 yards) was cooking outside, Zach Charbonnet (12 for 47, TD) punched one in, and the defense kept it tight all afternoon. But with the house rocking and 1:02 left, a late Sam Darnold mishap on the wind‑up put the ball — and the game — in San Francisco’s hands. That fumble sealed it for the visitors.

Big Dill of the Game: Brock Purdy. Efficient, composed, and clutch on the road in the noise — that’s a statement opener from QB1. I’m Dillon “Big Dill” Smith, signing off from Big Dill Sports — where ballin’ is a big dill.
