The NFL didn't get to see much of the battle between and to wrap up Wild Card Weekend. Just two po se sions in, a hit by defensive end knocked Wentz out of the game with a concu sion and the quarterback remained in the locker room for the remainder of the evening.Immediately after the Seahawks' 17-9 victory over the Eagles, Wilson went https://www.shopprocanucks.com/tim-schaller-kids-jersey up to Eagles head coach Doug Pederson and asked him about the status of the quarterback. Pederson told Wilson that Wentz would be fine, completing the cla sy gesture by the Seahawks quarterback. All cla s. https://www.shopprocanucks.com/pavel-bure-jersey asked Doug Pederson if Carson Wentz was ok postgame. NFL (@NFL) "It was tough to see Carson go down," Wilson said. "He's such a tremendous football player for the Eagles and had a great year. I don't really know what his status was fully. To be honest with you, I thought Josh McCown came in and did a great job, too."McCown did his best to keep the Eagles in the game after Wentz went down, completing 18 of 24 pa ses for 174 yards and finishing with a 94.8 pa ser rating. The Eagles failed to score an offensive touchdown in the game, as McCown was sacked six times. McCown did have his moments as he appeared https://www.shopprocanucks.com/sam-gagner-women-jersey in his first playoff game at 40 years old (McCown had five carries for 23 yards)."I kind of made a joke with him after, I said, 'How young are you?' Because he was moving around and making throws," Wilson said. "It shows you how important the quarterback position is and McCown did a great job of that." The Seahawks defense held the Wentz-le s Eagles to just 282 yards and nine points. By the time the Eagles finished the game, the offense had just four players on the field that started Week 1: , , and (who was battling rib and kidney injuries)."We were able to sustain. We were able to do our thing on offense when we needed to capitalize and finish the game," Wilson said. "Ultimately, our defense locked it down when we needed to. The https://www.shopprocanucks.com/oscar-fantenberg-kids-jersey Seahawk defense had two fourth-down stops that were just ma sive plays and huge momentum swings where we got the ball back. A great job by the defense there."Wentz finished just 1 https://www.shopprocanucks.com/tyler-graovac-men-jersey for 3 for four yards. He played just nine snaps in his first playoff start, one years in the making after back-to-back season ending injuries derailed that opportunity the past two years. "I'll let him speak for it, but I'm disappointed for him," Pederson said. "I wanted this for him obviously, and I think a lot of his teammates did, too. The team, the organization did. He's battled through a lot, but we'll learn from it and move on."
