People are saying the Seahawks got better than the 49ers yesterday by adding Quenton Nelson, while the 49ers added DeForest Buckner. What they failed to realize is that when the 49ers went into Seattle and won, they did that without Nick Bosa, Marques Sigle, and Demarcus Robinson— all starters Sure Seattle will now have Quenton Nelson and Zach Charbonnet— who was out against us, but I don’t think they are the better team right now because they added Nelson while SF added Buckner
