Seattle Seahawks dominant in win over Eagles

Russell Wilson accounted for three touchdowns, including one on a 15-yard pass to Marshawn Lynch that helped the Seattle Seahawks pull away in the second half for a 24-14 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.

Lynch's touchdown came after Eagles running back LeSean McCoy fumbled on the first play from scrimmage in the third quarter and extended Seattle's lead to 17-7.

Later, in another key sequence in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks dodged a bullet after Lynch lost a fumble for the first time this season.

Tharold Simon intercepted Eagles quarterback Mark Sanchez on the next play, protecting Seattle's 10-point lead.

The Seahawks (9-4) controlled the game more than the score showed, holding the Eagles to just 139 yards of offense for their third win in a row.

The Eagles (9-4) had a 10-game regular season home winning streak snapped and fell into a tie with Dallas for first place in the NFC East nine days after beating the Cowboys convincingly on Thanksgiving.

The Seahawks, who were also coming off a win over division rival San Francisco on Thanksgiving, remained a game behind Arizona in the NFC West.
