Social media reaction to the 49ers’ 31-13 Thanksgiving win over the Seahawks

The San Francisco 49ers were as unstoppable on Thanksgiving as cranberry dressing.

The Seattle Seahawks may have played host to a Thanksgiving game for the first time, but it wasn’t their night as the 49ers cruised to a 31-13 victory Thursday night at Lumen Field.

Running back Christian McCaffrey made his MVP case with 19 carries for 114 yards and two touchdowns. He also caught five passes for 25 yards.

Geno Smith looked more like his reputation with an 18-of-27 for 180 yards and an interception stat line. Maybe a healthier Drew Lock on a short week would have been best.

Social media was quick with takes and responses surrounding the NFC West showdown. Here are some of the best reactions.
