The Seattle Seahawks are looking to notch a big primetime win against the Philadelphia Eagles. A win keeps their faint playoff hopes alive. A loss pretty much submarines them.
Seattle will have a golden opportunity. LeSean McCoy is questionable, while Michael Vick, Jeremy Maclin and a host of other Eagles are out or injured. And Seattle is at home in front of one of the most raucous home fields in the league. This should be a game the Seahawks have definite hopes of winning if they have any plans on trying to capture the last wild card spot. Seattle is pretty much in win and go home mode on Thursday Night Football.
