Key players for Seahawks, Eagles injured in grueling game
“It’s a process”, said Seattle wide receiver Doug Baldwin, who had three TD catches last week.
Anything Dak can do, Russell Wilson can do better?
Graham has put up some totals (29 tackles, five sacks, two forced fumbles, fumble recovery, pass deflection), but the numbers that don’t show up on the box score define how valuable he has been to the Eagles defense.
“There is a chance he comes back this year, yes”, Carroll said.
If the Eagles want to win this game and prove to the N.F.L. they are for real, then Carson Wentz needs to be protected.
That ended Prosise’s second straight start and second of his career after four rushes for 76 yards, including a 72-yard touchdown run on his second carry Sunday.
Two former Boise State players will return to the Grey Cup after the Ottawa Redblacks beat the Edmonton Eskimos 35-23 in the CFL’s East Division final Sunday. What sets him apart is you don’t want to get him out of his rhythm.
Wilson was already causing headaches for the Eagles well before his TD catch.
Running backs Ryan Mathews is day to day with a mild sprain in his right knee and versatile back Darren Sproles has a nondisplaced rib fracture. And so, it’s like in that situation, him flipping the bird to me because now he’s got me throwing the ball to somebody else. The Eagles’ receivers are going to have trouble getting open against a strong Seattle secondary, which is why when they do, they have to make the play.
With 13 seconds left in the first half and the ball at the Patriots’ 18-yard-line, Russell Wilson took the snap and with pressure coming, began circling out of harm’s way to the left hashmark. I also know that a couple guys went down in the backfield and I’ll be praying for those guys. “I think with a mentality like that and my work ethic, it doesn’t matter”. “You try to get that quick, early lead and try to take the crowd of out of the game”.
Seattle, though, had no time outs remaining, and as the play appeared to unravel, coach Pete Carroll excitedly yelled to Wilson to “throw it away!”
Chancellor and Wilson look healthy, a big part of Seattle’s recent success, but other injuries were the rub on a big victory. Thomas was examined on the sideline for a short time and eventually went to the locker room. It’s simple, the team that makes the most plays will win this game. Rawls had not played since suffering a hairline fracture in his fibula in Week 2.
Rawls tallied 57 yards on 14 carries against Sunday.
“My leg is fine”.
“I call it the eye of the sky”, Rawls said.
The Seattle Seahawks were happy after their 26-15 win over the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday but the win was dampened by a number of injuries sustained by key players. That has been the difference this month as Seattle has won three in a row, scoring more than 25 points in all three games, and the Seahawks have finally resembled that November team that we remember.
Carroll picked up the 100th regular season win of his career, becoming the 39th coach in National Football League history to reach the milestone. The Eagles would have scored on a screen pass to Zach Ertz, but the referees flagged Philadelphia for an illegal formation because Agholor was positioned incorrectly.
“You always have to keep doing it – you’re only as good as your last game”, said guard German Ifedi.
“I think the biggest thing is we finished last week”, Wentz said.
