Doug Baldwin explains why he flipped off Seahawks OC before TD pass

Ertz coming on strong: Zach Ertz caught 14 passes on 15 targets in the two games preceding Sunday before scoring the Eagles’ first touchdown of the game on a four-yard Carson Wentz touchdown pass. Ertz finished with six catches for 35 yards and a touchdown. The Seahawks built their lead to nine over that span and clamped down on a banged-up Eagles offense the rest of the way. It was exactly the physicality he brought the running game last season as an undrafted rookie – and that Christine Michael lacked before Seattle waived him last week. On the opposite side of the play, however, they were whistled for an illegal formation; Agholor had appeared to line up behind the line of scrimmage.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, right, scores a touchdown ahead of Philadelphia Eagles outside linebacker Nigel Bradham, left, after Wilson caught a pass from Seahawks’ wide receiver Doug Baldwin in the second h. But the Eagles really haven’t been explosive since the Steelers game back before the bye in Week 3. When they got the ball back with 4:00 left in the game they used backup QB Trevone Boykin and FB Will Tukuafu as RB’s. “If you’re out of the playoffs it’s too late”.

That’s 859 yards in the last two games for Seattle, just as Wilson is as healthy as he’s been since the first half of the opening game. “Admittedly, your Power Ranker had given the Eagles some tough love of late, as they didn’t move higher than the 10 spot after beating the Falcons in Week 10”.

They had three or more TDs against the Browns, Bears and Steelers but haven’t had three in a game since.

The day after a loss at New Orleans on October 30, Carroll told the media he was confident the struggles of an offense that scored just one touchdown against the Saints wouldn’t last long. “But he is banged up and we’ll look to get him back by Sunday”. “We’ll see how they adapt and see what can happen”.

Pederson had a good game plan and called a fine game in the first half, but the second half improvements that have been with him in wins and loses wasn’t there.

Sherman also knew Wentz had yet to see a defense like Seattle’s. Wentz, who threw two interceptions, also threw two touchdown passes. They spent the whole season struggling with running the ball, but today they ran all over the Eagles. Wentz has been up and down.

For the second week in a row, it certainly felt that way, as Wilson’s Seahawks made relatively easy work of the Eagles with the quarterback continuing his recent run of brilliance, prevailing 26-15.

“We’ve been able to do a lot already, we’ve had a good season already”, Wilson said. “Dropping the ball, false start penalties, holding penalties, pick penalties”. With Parker (8-79-1) heating up and Miami’s defensive acquisitions, Byron Maxwell and Kiko Alonso, continuing to make a major impact, don’t discount the Dolphins in a crowded AFC wild-card picture just yet. Eventually? Maybe down the road? “But right now? Can’t do it”.

The Eagles do not know if Agholor has the talent it takes to be a starting receiver in the National Football League and now they are concerned about his mental makeup, too. We’ve seen your looks. We’ll know more about the severity of those injuries when coach Pete Carroll talks after the game, but if there was any negative to come out Sunday, it was the injuries. “Just not clean, not crisp”.

Paul Turner’s finally going to get his shot. When the one or two opportunities come, those are the ones you have to capitalize on. We’ll show you that on the weekend.
