down -- going into the end zone. it's just been big mistakes tonight and not challenging the call. you know, it's -- what's your guy howard say? >> al: howard cosell? he made a career out of saying "missed opportunity." >> cris: that's it. but now the entire nfc is up for grabs. this is a big night. >> al: davis, philly, cannot stop the clock. by the time they run the next play, we're down to about a minute to go. >> cris: how about that guy? pretty good night tonight, wasn't it? >> al: he gets overlooked. there's so many big names on that defense. >> cris: i totally agree with you. you come into this game and you don't have kam chancellor and you don't have richard sherman, and you go, oh, boy, this is going to be a problem against this high-scoring offense. yet we have really seen top-end play on the back end.

it was mostly man coverage tonight and they did a job on the receivers. we saw nelson agholor make a play or two, rory smith. they did not end the battles down the field against this young aspiring maxwell, justin coleman, mcdougald made plays, shaquill griffin. they made plays tonight. >> al: nfc side, minnesota and philadelphia stand at two. rams and new orleans. seattle would be the wild card along with carolina. the other guys are in the hunt. i hate to tell the philly fans, but if the season ended tonight, you would be down to like the fourth tiebreaker, strength of opposition, minnesota would be the number one seed. >> cris: and would scare people to death from the standpoint they would then have a chance to go to home game, home game, super bowl, home game, which would be tough.

>> al: the 35-yard line making the grab as barner gets taken down immediately with 57 seconds. >> cris: i love the saying that chris brouchard has with the seattle seahawks. if you have the line of scrimmage, we win. if you're going backward from the line of scrimmage, they win. tonight seattle took the land from the man. >> al: that's pretty original. i've never heard that before. most of the stuff we heard was stolen from somebody, but that could be rouchard. we'll give it to him. caught by agholor. having a big night on the stat sheet. seven catches for 141. >> cris: i tell you a player they really miss is darren sproles. can you imagine this offense

coming out of the back field? they don't have a replacement for him. >> al: they had to reconstruct that back field. that's why they got ajayi, blount, clement has been pretty good. they went with smallwood for a while, but you're right, sproles can do so many things that are very different. so doug pederson and company going to southern california. they'll work out and practice there all week and then take on the rams in the l.a. coliseum next sunday afternoon. second down and 10. flings on the outside. getting out of bounds and paying the price there was clement. he was able to get them to stop the clock with 27 seconds. >> cris: i think even pete carroll would tell you, this was a relatively close game. you take away the fumble, you take away the missed thr y

things that russell wilson was able to do tonight, but this is probably one -- and we talked about it in the opening on camera. this may have been one of those moments, playofflike moimments, that this team needed. they needed to be in this kind of environment and coming on the road and just sense what this is all about, because the seahawks, they've been here before. >> al: jeffery makes the catch. no timeout. this will probably take us to the end of the game here. and wentz will fling one toward the end zone. bat it away. it's incomplete. and the seattle seahawks withstanding the losses of two-thirds of the legion of boom. russell wilson continues to have just another spectacular year. the two guys right there and your mvp picture, clearly.

december in seattle, and these seahawks, despite the players they're missing in their secondary, still have what it takes to be not only among those top teams in the nfc but also the proving grounds in this conference. are you good enough to do it? philadelphia might be, but for the moment, not just yet. as al showed you, the playoff picture changes a little bit with minnesota now in that top spot over philadelphia. both teams the same record. you go deep into the tiebreakers and better strength of victories, the reason the vikings for the moment are ahead of philadelphia. the rams host the eagles, and this is going to be a terrific december run. seattle's win moves them to the 5 seed. they have a better conference record with atlanta. now we're see the defending nfc champs host the saints on the nfc. on the afc, steelers try to keep pace with new england tomorrow night. those two teams in pittsburgh. we'll caou

better. >> michelle: you made repplay after play with your feet. you were running around all night long. how do you explain your defenders? >> it was guys just believing we could find a way to make a play. even mike davis stayed with me. i was trying to get the first down and then he pops out of nowhere. a great player. those are things we work on but we also trust and we know. >> michelle: you mentioned the defense. holding them to 10 tonight, this was a team that was averaging just under 32 points per game. what impressed you about them? >> i'm not sure if i should be the player of the game or the whole defense should be. they played some great football tonight. they hung in there and stayed the course. mine was as tough as could be. i thought the guys on offense really made some key plays in key situations. you can't waiver. we got to keep going. >> michelle: bobby wagner got the ball, too, just so you know. >> that guy isoo
