Mike Macdonald gave a no-nonsense response to Sam Darnold’s costly fumble

It doesn't get much worse than losing to a division rival in Week 1, and while playing at home. But, what can make it worse is just exactly how the Seattle Seahawks lost to the San Francisco 49ers.

After a miraculous touchdown catch by 49ers tight end Jake Tonges to put San Francisco ahead with under two minutes to go, quarterback Sam Darnold connected twice with Jaxon Smith-Njigba, including one that went 40 yards and immediately put the Seahawks into the red zone.

Three plays later, Darnold fumbled and the Niners took over.
