The Seattle Seahwaks were holding a 7-3 lead over the Tennessee Titans as they went on the final drive of the first half. Quarterback Russell Wilson led the Seahwaks all the way down to the four-yard line before stopping the clock with two seconds left.

They lined up for a field goal, hoping to put three extra points on the board before heading into the locker room for half-time.

The snap was fumbled and the holder, Maragos tried to run and was quickly caught by defenders. Titans cornerback Jason McCourtey came from behind as Maragos was being tackled and knocked the ball loose.

It rolled towards the sideline quickly but McCourty caught it before the sidelines and picked it up. He then took it 77 yards to score and give the Titans a 10-7 lead at the half.

Certainly not how the Seahawks saw it going, and now the Titans have a lot of momentum as they sit in the locker rooms. The play was reviewed and upheld.
