What the national media are saying about the Seahawks’ win in Arizona that lost them Earl Thomas

The Seattle Seahawks beat the Cardinals 20-17 in Arizona on Sunday afternoon to notch their fifth road win in Glendale in six years.

This win was important because it evened Seattle’s record at 2-2. But it also came with a cost. Once again, for the second year in a row, Seattle lost two starters to season-ending injuries in Glendale. All-Pro free safety Earl Thomas suffered a fractured lower leg, while rookie tight end Will Dissly suffered a torn patellar tendon, Seattle coach Pete Carroll said Sunday. Both injuries are likely to be season-ending, and a visibly annoyed Thomas appeared to flip off the Seahawks’ sideline as he was carted off the field at State Farm Stadium with an air cast on his left leg.
