WATCH: 49ers defense comes up with goal line stand to beat Seahawks

The 49ers defense stood tall Sunday night in Seattle. A unit that struggled through the last quarter of the year got their biggest stop of the season when the Seahawks, trailing 26-21, had eight chances to score from inside the red zone.

On fourth-and-goal from the 5, Russell Wilson found tight end Jacob Hollister at the goal line, but a huge hit by 49ers rookie LB Dre Greenlaw flattened Hollister short of the end zone.

The stop secured a 26-21 win for the 49ers. They won the NFC West, and grabbed the No. 1 seed in the NFC by mere inches.
