The Seattle Seahawks were eliminated from postseason contention in a horrible loss to the Chicago Bears that saw the Hawks lose after having held a double digit fourth quarter lead. The two-point conversion hauled in by Damiere Byrd after a 15 yard touchdown to Jimmy Graham on 3rd & 14 propelled Chicago to victory and ended the postseason dreams for Seattle.
After that the Seahawks finished the season strong, with dominant wins over the Detroit Lions and the Arizona Cardinals, but that final pair of games was not enough for everyone on the defensive coaching staff to keep their job.
