Pete Carroll, the seasoned former head coach of the Seattle Seahawks, is set to take the helm at the Las Vegas Raiders, aiming to bring his winning culture and defensive expertise to a team in need of a turnaround.
The Seattle Seahawks secured a thrilling 20-17 victory against the San Francisco 49ers on November 17, 2024, ending a six-game losing streak against their divisional rivals and keeping their playoff hopes alive. The game was highlighted by Geno Smith's decisive 80-yard drive, culminating in a game-winning 13-yard touchdown run with 12 seconds remaining. Jaxon Smith-Njigba played a key role with 10 catches for 110 yards, while the 49ers struggled to hold onto a late lead, hampered by injuries including the loss of Nick Bosa. Both teams now sit in a three-way tie with the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC West standings.
