Legion of Boom busted: What's ahead for Seattle's defensive backfield

It is possible, maybe even probable, that the Seattle Seahawks' famed "Legion of Boom" secondary has played its final defensive snap together.

When viewers tune in to see the Seahawks and Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football, they will see only free safety Earl Thomas remaining from the secondary that has driven much of Seattle's historic success on defense during the Pete Carroll era.

Left cornerback Richard Sherman is beginning an arduous rehab from a torn Achilles' tendon and will be 30 years old heading into the final year of his contract.
