FINAL: Drew Lock Leads Seattle Seahawks Upset Win Over Philadelphia Eagles

Seattle Seahawks vs. Philadelphia Eagles: Live Updates, Highlights

The Seattle Seahawks host the Philadelphia Eagles in a Monday Night matchup that has already made history; Originally scheduled for Sunday, it is the first game the NFL has ever flexed to Monday.

This matchup also is highlighted by two teams on losing streaks, hoping for a late-season surge for postseason jockeying.

The Eagles suffered two-straight double-digit losses to NFC powerhouses in the San Francisco 49ers and the Dallas Cowboys during the past two weeks. Philadelphia needs a victory to hold onto the top spot in the NFC East and remain in the race for the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC playoffs, which comes with a first-round bye and home-field advantage through the conference championship.
