Subtitled, "The Wilson to Metcalf connection was too much for an injury-riddled Philadelphia team to overcome". Yes, I'm aware that the topic names are no longer length-limited.

"Seattle took an early lead but never really extended it far enough to put the Eagles away, despite the fact that Philadelphia was working without so many injured players on both defense and offense -- including Carson Wentz, who was concussed during the first quarter."

The Seahawks were playing without many injured players:

Duane Brown, Jaron Brown, Mike Iupati, Joey Hunt, Malik Turner, Mychal Kendricks, Quandre Diggs, Luke Willson, Rashaad Penny, C.J. Prosise, Josh Gordon, Will Dissly, Justin Britt, Ethan Pocic, Al Woods, Tedric Thompson, Chris Carson, Phil Haynes, and Cody Barton (20 total players).

Eagles injured players: Lane Johnson, Nelson Agholor, Brandon Brooks, DeSean Jackson, Alshon Jeffery, Malik Jackson, Ronald Darby, Kamu Grugier-Hill, Hassan Ridgeway, Darren Sproles, Corey Clement, Jordan Mailata, Joe Ostman, and at the game, Carson Wentz (14 total players).

Seahawks quarterback, Russel Wilson displayed an incredible show of his capability completing 18 of 30 passes (60%) for 325 yards, a TD, and no turnovers; while adding 45 yards rushing. It showed the the Eagle's defense outmatched by Wilson. After watching at Century Link Field last Sunday, the Seahawks lose to the 49ers--in a very disappointing game--this one made up for everything.

It’s going to be interesting to see if the NFL League Office decides that Clowney’s hit was excessive. I favor “letting them play” but so many times the league refuses to do that.

Didn’t watch, but am very happy my local watering hole will no longer be stuffed with Philly meatheads every weekend.
