Nick Bosa: A blessing in disguise to play on Thursday after blowing the lead against the Cardinals

Because of the quick turnaround starting Sunday, players typically aren't interested in playing Thursday night games, but 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa isn't complaining about this week's schedule.

The 49ers will be in Seattle on Thursday night and Bosa is looking forward to the game because it gives the team a chance to turn around Sunday's tide. The Niners led the Cardinals 23-10 at halftime but did not score in the final 30 minutes and the Cardinals took a 24-23 victory after linebacker Kyzir White tackled Brock Purdy with just over a minute to play.

“I think we have to do that turn the page on this one. It’s pretty clear what happened and why we lost,” Bosa said, via 49ersWebzone.com. “So I think it’s a bit of a blessing that we’re playing on Thursday.”

Head coach Kyle Shanahan expressed a similar sentiment. He said there was no way to change what happened on the field Sunday and that it was “better just to wait until Thursday than next Sunday” to get back on his feet.

The Seahawks also enter Thursday night in a sour mood after losing to the Giants on Sunday, and whichever team can bounce back best will be in an advantageous position in the NFC West heading into Week 7.
