Seahawks Score TD After Russell Wilson Converts Busted Play for 35 Yards

The Seahawks turned a sure loss into a huge gain, and an eventual touchdown.

This is what Russell Wilson can do for you. On first-and-ten from the Vikings 39-yard line, the snap came in high and tight to Wilson, bouncing off his shoulder and rolling behind him, back into Seattle territory. He was able to track the ball ball down, pick it up, and still find Tyler Lockett wide open downfield. While most of the Vikings defense pursued Wilson, Locket caught it at the 29 and scampered 25 more yards to the Vikings four, turning a huge loss into a 35-yard gain.

Here's another angle:

Two play later, Wilson found Doug Baldwin, who now has a touchdown to go with his outstanding catch earlier. It was the first touchdown of the game and after Seattle recovered an Adrian Peterson fumble, they took a 10-9 lead on a 46-yard field goal.
