Late Hail Mary touchdown allowed by Seahawks against Eagles proved to be costly

The Seattle Seahawks were never really in serious jeopardy of losing to the Philadelphia Eagles, but for the umpteenth time in a row a comfortable win turned into a closer scoreline than it should’ve been.

This one was quite costly, if you catch my drift.

Eagles TE Richard Rodgers, famous for his game-winning Hail Mary touchdown grab when he was with the Green Bay Packers, made an amazing one-handed catch on a deflection late in the 4th quarter with :12 to go. Doug Pederson then decided to go for two, which turned a 23-9 game into 23-17.
