What the 49ers and Seahawks had to say after Week 6 “Thursday Night Football.”

Quarterback Brock Purdy on “finding the team’s identity”:

“Our standards are high here and so I think a lot of us will leave. Okay, we could have done this or that and been better here, but I think at the end of the day, man, it’s a team sport and so going through four quarters with all these different movements and parts of the game and being able to , coming together and the defense getting a turnover and scoring a touchdown at the end, that’s team football, man. This is the sport we play so I feel like we’ve definitely taken a step in the right direction and we’re always going to have to be hard on ourselves and grow and get better, but I really believe that We all did it together as a team and found a way that ended really well.

“It was great to see Renardo get his interception. Malik on defense, that always gets us going on offense, and of course Isaac came in at the end and pulled away. It was kind of like a little reminder of the time at Jordan.” Mason got in a few years ago and ended up having his break, but this isn’t college for these guys. You’re playing against the best For these guys to show up on Thursday night, in a game like this in prime time, it means a lot to all of us as a team and to them to show that, so we’re all behind them and we’ll continue to do that, growing together. “

Wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. on whether this game felt like a must-win situation:

“It was definitely a must-win win. But we look at mandatory victories a little differently. Mandatory victories are all about if you lose, you’re done for. So at the end of the day we look at it as a must-win to get back on track and then we get back to work on Monday or Tuesday, depending on which day Kyle wants us to train.

Defensive lineman Nick Bosa on whether there was a different sense of urgency before this game:

“I think so, yes. Of course, we want to convey a high sense of urgency in every game. But when your back is against the wall, it kind of takes you out of it. I’m just happy when the momentum came. We stuck with it all week. “We achieved victory.”

Safety Malik Mustapha on his interception:

“I just read Geno (Smith). Renardo had good coverage on (Tyler) Lockett and I just went the same way. (He) brought it down and I had to capitalize when I got the opportunity. Next time I’ll go.” I wanted to try to keep more control so I didn’t go out of bounds. But I really wanted to secure the ball the last time I played against the Patriots, so to get another opportunity to do it this time was special.

Running back Isaac Guerendo on the play of his fellow rookies:

“It’s exciting. There are a lot of talented guys in the rookie class, so I’m excited to see some of them step up and make plays. I’m really happy for them and excited for what lies ahead.”

Tight end George Kittle on whether this was a dirty win:

“We got it dirty. Well, technically they did it dirty. What a reaction. We score a touchdown, take a 23-3 lead, and then they go straight down the kickoff return for a touchdown. We’re not doing anything.’ On offense, they go down and get a 90- to 95-yard drive. It doesn’t matter who you play every Sunday film, but I was also just proud of our offense for holding them incredibly long, getting them through the two-minute warning and having to score on fourth down so they had a lot Wasted time, and then I was just thrilled that Coach Shanahan had committed to our outside run. It wasn’t pretty all day, but when they finally gave us the impression that we had practiced all week, we ran it and Isaac went 71 yards. And then he slipped just so Kyle Juszczyk could score a touchdown. It’s hilarious.

Linebacker Fred Warner on what it’s like to be in the locker room saying it’s a must-win game:

“I think we knew how serious the situation was. We couldn’t drop all three in the division at the start of the year. My message to the guys on the field during warmups was to just focus on the process and be in the moment. “All this talk about having to win, all that other stuff is great, but how are we going to make it happen?” With what energy and tenacity do I think we will get everything right? Away.”

Offensive lineman Dominick Puni on how important it was for Purdy to get into the game and his play against Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald:

“It’s huge. He’s so prepared every week it’s crazy. He knows what we’re doing up front, he knows everything. For him to do that in this environment, a lot of teams are going to come here and be nervous, but he just is. “He’s a great leader to look up to every time.

Tell Trent Williams what he saw overall from the offensive line:

“I think we get along pretty well. Outside of Puni we’re pretty much the same group, but Puni plays like he’s been here for a few years. So we got lucky with that. But we harmonize. So long.’ As long as we can keep Brock upright, he’s going to split the defense. As long as we can get the running backs to the offensive line, they’ll fall forward. We’re not where we want to be yet, but we’re on the right track.”
