HOLY COW! SEATTLE DID IT!

Are you kidding me?

Russell Wilson was having his worst day, ever, with a total QBR hovering around 10 from four interceptions, the last one coming with just 5:13 left in the game.  Fans were minutes away from a huge disappointment, having watched the Seahawks offense sputter and drop balls left and right. Meanwhile, Green Bay brought the hurt and sacked Wilson several times and looked like they controlled the game, especially in the secondary.

But then like a light switch, the Seattle offense suddenly hit the on button and everything was working. Even though Marshawn Lynch was playing well throughout the game, his biggest plays came in the last four minutes of the game, with a 26-yard catch and run and a 24-yard rumble into the end zone, rocking the stadium.

Wilson and the Seahawks made it to overtime and won it, after two scores with just 4 minutes left in the fourth quarter, with a reverse-field up-for-grabs throw for a 2-point conversion, with an onside kick recovery. An improbable series of huge plays by the Seahawks, and Seattle is going back to the Super Bowl.

Wilson and the Seahawks showed that you never give up and you never stop believing.

Best comeback, ever?
