2nd Dishonorable Mention – Jordyn Brooks

Jordyn Brooks‘ pass interference penalty in the fourth quarter will be overlooked by many. A few plays later Carson Wentz threw an interception to Quandre Diggs in the endzone. Brooks should buy someone a cold on because that turnover saved his bacon.

Monday night tight end Dallas Goedert was Wentz’s go-to guy. He’s not an easy assignment. That still doesn’t excuse the penalty. All Brooks had to do was turn his head. Instead, he tried to run through Goedert and was penalized.

1st Dishonorable Mention – Third and Fourth Down

The Seattle Seahawks were dismal converting on third and fourth down. Their downfall started

Seattle got stuffed at the two-yard line in the first quarter. They did convert one third down on the same drive but from there the Seahawks went 1-for-11 on third and fourth down situations. That’s unacceptable. If Seattle was going to have a bad week, they picked a good opponent. It’s not like Philly had the offense to take advantage.

Dud of the Week – Seahawks Offensive Line

How many adjectives are there to describe just how bad the Seattle Seahawks offensive line was on Monday night. Philadelphia has a very good defensive front. The Eagles came after Wilson hard and got results. RW3 was sacked twice and knocked down seven more times. That doesn’t include him getting flushed from the pocket and getting hit after a gain.

The O-line didn’t have much success in the ground game either. They just couldn’t get a decent push against Philadelphia’s defensive front. As a result the Seahawks only managed 76 rushing yards on 30 attempts, which works out to 2.5-yards-per-carry.

As a matter of fact, there were plenty of instances where the Seahawks went backwards. They were tackled for loss an unbelievable 10 times by Philadelphia.
