If the Eagles allow home field advantage throughout the NFC Playoffs to slip through their grasp at season’s end, it will be fair to look back on four critical mistakes in Sunday night’s 24-10 loss to the Seattle Seahawks that could be to blame.

Carson Wentz badly missing a wide open Nelson Agholor on a play that had the pass been completed, he likely waltzes into the end zone with 7:58 remaining in the first quarter. a blatant holding penalty by Alshon Jeffery that negated a LeGarrette Blount run to the four yard-line with 9:57 remaining in the second quarter, and a blown coverage that led to a Doug Baldwin 48-yard catch and run that eventually led to a Russell Wilson 1-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Lockett with 5:42 remaining in the third quarter.

As a result of Sunday’s loss, the Vikings hold the tiebreaker based on strength of win over the Eagles and currently reside as the NFC’s top seed in the playoff race.

Here are takeaways from the Eagles’ mistake-riddled loss to the Seahawks that effectively takes away any margin for error in the race for the top seed in the playoffs NJ.com
