SEATTLE (AP) — Until Sunday, it had been nearly 19 years since a San Francisco 49ers kicker missed two field-goal attempts inside 40 yards in a game. Joe Nedney did it on Nov. 19, 2006 against the Seattle Seahawks, and Jake Moody joined him by doinking one kick off the left upright and having another one blocked during Sunday’s 17-13 win over Seattle. For Moody, it was a continuation of his struggles from last season, when he went 24 of 34 on field goals, including 6 of 11 from 40 yards or longer.
