NEU » ny and Wanda, what was happening for thei

SEATTLE -- Richard Sherman saw the poise from Carson Wentz on film. He saw the correct decisions being made by the rookie and the success Philadelphia was having thanks to Wentz.Sherman also knew Wentz had yet to see a defense like Seattles.He was pretty poised. He wasnt shook, hes a rook. Thats what he is. Hes been kind of getting an easy walk through this league, Sherman said. And then he ran into some people that weve been there before. Weve seen your looks, we know your plays. Hes going to learn from it and hes going to work hard and come back.Wentz and the rest of the Eagles received an education in what it takes to reach the top of the NFC on Sunday, thanks to Seattles 26-15 victory on Sunday . It was the fifth straight road loss and showed the thin line the Eagles are still walking between being competitive and, for the most part, being dominated.While Wentz showed flashes of greatness against Seattles standout secondary, he also was 5 of 14 for 25 yards and two interceptions during a stretch of the second and third quarters as Philadelphia watched its 7-6 lead turn into a 23-7 deficit.On a day Philadelphia needed to be close to perfect to hang with the class of the NFC West, the Eagles made too many careless mistakes.I think its a benchmark for us. You look at certain games on your schedule and obviously this is one, Philadelphia coach Doug Pederson said. They are a team that is playing extremely well. We were coming off of a good win a week ago. These are benchmark games.No mistake stood out more than wide receiver Nelson Agholor not lining up correctly on a second quarter play that became a 57-yard touchdown pass to Zach Ertz. Agholor was not close enough to the line of scrimmage and did not check with the official nearest to him, who was signaling for Agholor to move forward. Instead of a touchdown that would have given Philadelphia a 14-13 lead, the Eagles didnt find the end zone again until late in the fourth quarter.That was a big play and mental errors like that you cant have, Agholor said. I know better than that and I shouldnt have done that.Seattle took advantage of Philadelphias lapses and also showed the Eagles defense has a way to go to join the elite of the NFC. Russell Wilson threw for 272 yards and a touchdown, and caught a 15-yard touchdown on a trick play pass from wide receiver Doug Baldwin.The Seahawks finished with 439 total yards -- the third time this year the Eagles have allowed more than 400 yards -- and had three drives inside the Philadelphia 30 that resulted in just six points. The 11-point margin could have been much larger if Seattle was better in the red zone.Weve been able to do a lot already, weve had a good season already, Wilson said. Theres just more we can do and theres more out there. Thats the exciting part for us.Heres what else to know from Seattles third straight win:ABSENT RECEIVERS: For the first three quarters, Philadelphia had almost no production from its wide receivers. Jordan Matthews and Dorial Green-Beckham finished with a combined 10 catches for 113 yards and a touchdown. But through three quarters, the duo had exactly two catches for 15 yards, the same amount of yards as Wilson had on his TD catch.INJURY BUG: Both Seattle and Philadelphia suffered significant injuries that could have lasting impact.Seattle lost running back C.J. Prosise for a significant amount of time with a shoulder blade injury. Starting cornerback DeShawn Shead and safety Earl Thomas both left with hamstring injuries.Philadelphia lost running backs Ryan Mathews (knee) and Darren Sproles (ribs) to injuries, although Pederson did not know the severity or length of the injuries after the game.In total, 17 players missed at least one play during the game due to an apparent injury.BIG PLAY SEAHAWKS: Seattle has rediscovered a knack for big plays on offense.Starting with a 72-yard touchdown run by Prosise on Seattles fifth offensive play, the Seahawks had six plays of 20 yards or more. Wilson found Baldwin for completions of 44 and 34 yards and also hit Jimmy Graham on a 35-yard touchdown in the second quarter.Seattle had five plays of 20 or more yards in last weeks win over New England.Youve seen us make shifts in the past, this is one of those big shifts for us, Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. Its really exciting to see, we feel very aggressive.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL John Alt Jersey .

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Anthony and Wanda Hernandez expected no favors as they gathered with the masses Tuesday to watch their daughter, Laurie, and her U.S. teammates compete in the womens gymnastics team final at Rios Olympic Stadium.They didnt get any, as an official directed the pair to the end of the line, despite some helpful onlookers pointing out that they were the parents of a competitor.It is how they say they raised their 16-year-old, the youngest member of the American team that captured team gold Tuesday night. Lauries mother, Wanda, a school social worker, said with a laugh that they still feel a little like party-crashers.It hasnt hit us that, even though Laurie is part of this team, shes really part of this team, Wanda said.If they werent sure before Tuesday night, there was confirmation in the role Laurie played in the team gold, with scores of 15.100 on vault, 15.233 on beam and 14.833 on floor. But for the family of a girl who less than a year ago was competing for the junior national team, it is still a bit of a blur.It is very overwhelming, said Anthony Hernandez, a court clerk for the New York City Supreme Court. It hasnt hit us. .... Everything is happening so fast. We dont have a chance to process. Its just a whirlwind.Not so overwhelming, apparently, was Lauries decision last week to forgo a college scholarship to Florida and turn professional.It was not an easy decision, but it was a decision she made, and we decided to support her, Wanda said.The first cent is going to go for college, Anthony said.Both parents said Laurie was partly motivated by not wanting to take a spot on the Gators roster that would better serve another gymnast.For her, it was giving others an opportunity to be able to shine the way she has, Wanda said. She doesnt want to take the opportunity away from someone else.As for the downside of being a professional on arguably the most famous team in America, there have been a few examples, the most recent being the rumor that a hamstring injury forced her out of consideration for the Olympic all-around competition.The hamstring is fine, though Marta Karolyi said Laurie had a slight abdominal pull. Laurie and her parents were conteent to accept that it was a competitive decision that gave Simone Biles, Aly Raisman and Gabby Douglas the nod going into qualifications (the trio finished 1-2-3, but only two per country are allowed to compete in all-around finals).dddddddddddd.Its what Marta wants for the team, Wanda said. Its about what our coach wants as well. At this point, were all respectful and mindful, just grateful for this opportunity to be here. Lauren looks at all the Olympians and world champions, and theyre the stars in her eyes. I dont think she has equated herself as part of the Olympians as yet. Neither have we.These are not stereotypical soccer parents. Wanda has patently avoided getting overly involved, to the extent that she said she does not learn Lauries routines.Im going to see it through a moms eyes, she has said.On Tuesday, the two exchanged text photos of mother and daughter puckering up before competition.There are anxious moments, of course, Wanda said, but shes having a ball.For Anthony and Wanda, what was happening for their daughter began to dawn on them at the Team USA trials.She always dreamed of being on the floor and all the confetti falling down, and once she lifted her eyes and you could see her eyes with the confetti, its like, OK, shes really there. Wow, Wanda said. That was a proud moment.Anthony said it hit him after the U.S. team was named and Laurie asked a security guard if her father could come down to the floor.When I came down, I was able to hug her and just congratulate her, tell her that were so proud of her, he said while miming the ferocity of the hug. That was a defining moment for me, where I was able to look at it and say, Wow, shes going.Before he went down to the floor, Anthony said, he looked at Lauries 20-year-old brother, and the two burst into tears.We just hugged, and we let it out, he said. It was one of those things where we couldnt believe it. It was just a surreal moment that were there, and were watching all this going on, and people are actually cheering for all of these young ladies.Cheering for Laurie. ' ' '
