RENTON, Wash. -- Playing across the country on a short week and facing one of the top teams in the NFL coming off a bye, the Seattle Seahawks had every reasonable excuse available.And yet, what could have been an expected setback instead became one of Seattles most impressive regular season wins under coach Pete Carroll.Weve had our struggles, but fortunately enough weve been on the positive side of it, Seattle wide receiver Doug Baldwin said after the game. So, as we continue to get healthy and continue to execute and get better at that, I think well continue to improve and hopefully continue to win.Seattles 31-24 victory over New England will be remembered for the final sequence -- one that was eerily similar to when the teams met in the Super Bowl two years ago, except this time it was the Patriots who threw a failed pass from the 1-yard line. At Super Bowl XLIX, Russell Wilsons pass was intercepted by Malcom Butler, giving New England its fourth championship. On Sunday, Tom Bradys lob fell incomplete after an end-zone collision between Rob Gronkowski and safety Kam Chancellor, sending the Seahawks home with an unlikely victory.It wont be considered one of Seattles most important victories under Carroll -- there were too many games earlier in his tenure, before the Seahawks were established as regular contenders, that created the base for whats become a four-year run as one of the top teams in the NFC.But considering the circumstances, it ranks among the most impressive. Seattle was playing just six days after outlasting Buffalo on Monday night , traveling across the country on Friday for a Sunday night game against a rested Patriots squad that hadnt played since winning at Buffalo on Oct. 30.It was a scenario set for Seattle to fail. Instead, the Seahawks thrived.The mentality in believing that youre going to get it done, remaining confident, finding the confidence that it takes to execute well, comes from experience and really good leadership, Carroll said. The guys, they were in it to win the thing all the way to the last inch and found a way.The victory was encouraging, and so was the re-emergence of Seattles offense following a sluggish first half of the season. Baldwin created headaches for defensive backs, especially near the end zone, where he caught three touchdowns for the first time since Week 14 of last season. Wilson looked as healthy as he has all season, throwing for 348 yards, and showing the elusiveness and ability to extend plays with his legs thats been absent since suffering ankle and knee injuries in the first three weeks of the season.But the most important change was a rushing attack that entered the week 30th in the NFL, averaging just 75 yards per game. Led by rookie C.J. Prosise, the Seahawks ran for 96 yards as a team. Its not a significant total, but it was Seattles most yards on the ground since Week 3.Prosise provided a missing spark, along with a solid night by Seattles maligned offensive line. The third-round pick, slowed early in the season by a broken bone in his hand, rushed for 66 yards on 17 carries and caught all seven targets for 87 yards.C.J. hit stuff really well. He took advantage of a leap forward from our guys up front, Carroll said. It was the most aggressive that weve been, the most confident coming off the ball. It was just the best outing that weve had. I think it all fit together.Game notes LB Mike Morgan was activated off injured reserve for return to practice on Monday.

Fernando Alonso is sure there is more to come from McLaren after the opening day of practice for the Austrian Grand Prix.Alonso finished 11th in FP2, one place behind teammate Jenson Button, in a session disrupted by rain. The pecking order is still unclear going in to Saturday and Alonso is convinced the team will be more competitive come qualifying on Saturday.?Theres more to come from us because today was just a test day, Alonso said. There were new parts to try, some worked in a positive way, others didnt work that well, so when well put the best parts in the car on Saturday I think we can be quite competitive. Im quite happy with the way today went, all in all.Alonso was running a revised McLaren rear wing on Friday and he says the day was useful for aerodynamic tests, althouggh its data was restricted by the afternoon shower.ddddddddddddWe learned less than on a normal Friday because we had less track time, but it was the same for everyone. But we still did quite a few tests, with new aerodynamic parts on top of the normal tyre testing, so now it will be a matter of analysing all the work we did with both cars and choose the best solutions for tomorrow and Sunday.In the end we completed the entire program with the exception of the long run with the ultrasoft tyres, because of the time lost to the rain, so tomorrow morning well do a few laps with a heavy fuel load - Im sure other teams will do the same - to learn a bit more.
