Seahawks clinch playoff spot

Red-hot quarterback Wilson puts on a clinic at home as high-flying Seattle trounces New Orleans 34-7

The rest of the top NFC teams better get ready to visit the Pacific Northwest in January. After Monday night's rout, the road through the NFC playoffs is almost certain to go through Seattle.

Russell Wilson threw for 310 yards and three touchdowns, and the Seattle Seahawks became the first team to clinch a berth in the NFC playoffs with a 34-7 victory over the New Orleans Saints.

More important than just clinching a spot in the postseason, the Seahawks (11-1) moved two games ahead of the rest of the NFC in the race for home-field advantage and hold the tiebreakers over New Orleans (9-3) and Carolina (9-3), the two closest pursuers.

Wilson was outstanding, picking apart the Saints' defense. He threw touchdown passes of two yards to Zach Miller and four yards to Doug Baldwin in the first half as Seattle built a 27-7 lead. Wilson added a pinball eight-yard TD pass to Derrick Coleman in the third quarter.

"Attention to details is where it's at," Wilson said. "We had a great balanced attack. We made some huge plays."

Michael Bennett had a 22-yard fumble return for a touchdown in the first quarter to give Seattle a 10-0 lead and the Saints never threatened.

It was a dominating performance by the Seahawks, making up for a lackluster effort the last time they were given the national television spotlight and were taken to the final yard and final play by St. Louis.

Not this time. The most anticipated game in the NFC this season was a laugher.

Wilson completed 22 of 30 passes and finished with a quarterback rating of 139.6. He has 22 regular-season wins in his first two seasons, tied for the most by a second-year QB.

Drew Brees and the Saints were stymied the entire night as he lost for the first time on Monday night after nine straight wins, and continued the belief New Orleans can't win outdoors late in the season.

New Orleans didn't crack 100 yards of total offense until midway through the third quarter. Jimmy Graham was nearly invisible outside of his franchise-record 12th TD catch of the season in the second quarter that pulled the Saints to 17-7.

Brees finished 23 of 38 for 147 yards. Graham had three catches for 42 yards. Darren Sproles led New Orleans with seven catches, many of those check downs.

The seven points tied for the fewest scored by the Saints since Sean Payton became coach in 2006 and the 188 total yards were the fewest in his coaching tenure.

"Lot of things to look at," Payton said. "Lot of things we didn't do well."

The Saints went three-and-out on their first possession and that was just the start of their struggles. On their next possession, Brees was hit from behind by Cliff Avril and fumbled into the arms of Bennett, who returned it for the touchdown.

Brees was unable to take advantage of Seattle's depleted secondary. The Seahawks were without Brandon Browner (injury) and Walter Thurmond (suspension) but Byron Maxwell and Jeremy Lane played well in their places. The Saints couldn't find a way to exploit the backups and the pressure from Seattle's defensive line had Brees rushing his throws much of the night.

"We try to make it about us playing disciplined, sound football. Everybody do their assignment and we should be good," Seattle cornerback Richard Sherman said. "And that's what we did tonight."

Seattle used the bye week to add wrinkles to its offense. Wilson was a threat not only passing but running with the zone read again becoming an addition to the playbook. Wilson carried five times in the first half, three of those designed keepers.

But it was his passing that stole the show. Wilson was 14 of 19 in the first half for 226 yards and a rating of 148.1. It was the second time in three games Wilson threw for at least 200 yards in the first half.

He found Miller open for a 60-yard catch-and-run to convert a third-and-one early in the second quarter, then capped the drive with a two-yard touchdown pass to Miller and a 17-0 lead.

Wilson later hit Doug Baldwin for 52 yards. Seattle had seven pass completions of 12 or more yards in the first half and finished with 315 first-half yards, the most allowed by the Saints in a first half since 2005 against Minnesota.

Wilson's night was so good, his passes that should have been incompletions ended up becoming touchdowns. Facing second-and-goal from the Saints' eight, Wilson threw a pass intended for reserve tight end Kellen Davis. The ball deflected to Coleman for a score.
