The Seattle Seahawks recovered an onside kick late in the fourth quarter and have life in the NFC Championship Game against the Green Bay Packers and madness ensued.


You can never count out the champions and the Packers are finding out how true that statement is after the defending Super Bowl champions scored a late touchdown and recovered an onside kick.

The 16-point deficit the Seahawks faced at halftime when the game was 16-0 would be the largest halftime deficit overcome. Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts overcame a 15-point deficit in 2006 against the New England Patriots which stands as the largest in a championship game.

If the Seahawks hold on to win that is. The Seahawks were able to turn the possession into eight points after Marshawn Lynch’s 24-yard touchdown run with 1:25 left and two-point conversion to Luke Willson gave the Seahawks 15 total points in 44 seconds.

Simply remarkable.

Tune into Fox to catch the final moments in the game with the Seahawks hoping for one more stop to get back to the Super Bowl where they’ll face the winner of the New England Patriots and Indianapolis Colts.
