Sore losers? That’s too soft a label for how the Seahawks reacted at end of loss

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — I heard a lot of chatter Sunday about what “sore losers” the Seahawks were, but that might be too soft a label. A sore loser is someone who won’t shake your hand or curses you out or refuses to give you credit.

What took place in the final moments of Seattle’s 30-24 loss to the Jaguars was more than an act of poor sportsmanship. What took place Sunday was an embarrassment to the organization.

It started when Jacksonville was in victory formation, and defensive end Michael Bennett dived into Jaguars center Brandon Linder’s legs.
