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.
Joey Hunt, Quandre Diggs, Luke Willson, and Cody Barton played. I think I saw Luke in there - but I don’t think he made any plays. Hunt replaced Justin Britt at center. He does okay, but Britt is a lot bigger and has been doing it for a long time.
I heard on the radio that the score was the same as earlier in the year when the Seahawks beat the Eagles in Philadelphia. The radio guys said that is the first time that has happened in the Superbowl era (same score, same field, same year).
Jeez - the football guys are getting as bad as the baseball guys when it comes to stats. (Hmm - I wonder what the Jersey combinations were - I know they keep those stats too!)
