RENTON, Wash. -- The final tally of everything the Seattle Seahawks lost on defense in the 12 months between Cliff Avril's career-ending neck injury last year and Earl Thomas' broken leg in September: Six Pro Bowlers, two first-team All-Pros and two potential hall of famers.
The final tally for Bobby Wagner on Sunday: A 98-yard interception return for a touchdown plus another pass defensed, a forced fumble that he recovered, a sack, another QB hit and a game-high 12 tackles.
"He’s the best linebacker in the game and nobody can argue that," said quarterback Russell Wilson.
