Grip: Seahawks Puts D In Domination

The Hawks defined defensive domination yesterday in Philadelphia. If it weren’t for another case of Jon Ryan butterfingers and one slow reaction by K.J. Wright, Seattle might have shut out Chip Kelly’s high-powered offense. When has that happened? Well, never in the NFL. As it was the Eagles had just one drive that was longer than 25 yards, gained just 153 yards of total offense and basically looked inept all day. The Hawks’ injury-decimated defensive front line dominated the Eagles’ offensive line, the linebackers ran free all evening and the secondary was hardly tested. This was the type of game we saw often last season , though it usually came against lesser offensive teams/Vince Grippi, A Grip on Sports/SR SportsLink. More here .
