SEATTLE -- A major shake-up in the Philadelphia Eagles' defensive coaching ranks appeared to have some positive effect Monday night against the Seattle Seahawks, but a unit that has struggled for much of the season let down in the biggest moment, leading to a 20-17 defeat that extended the Eagles' losing streak to three games.

Senior assistant Matt Patricia took over playcalling this week for D-coordinator Sean Desai. Coach Nick Sirianni said after Monday's contest that Patricia now has final say over the defense.
