Vine: Seattle Seahawks run great fake field-goal touchdown play

This play fooled the whole stadium

Robert Redmond

Seattle may be currently trailing in the NFC Championship game, but they just ran this brilliant play.

Behind 16-0 to the Green Bay Packers, Quarter-back Russell Wilson completed a 29-yard pass to Doug Baldwin that brought the Seahawks to the opposition 19.

After two aborted plays, and an incomplete pass that stopped drive in its tracks, Seattle have to settle for a 38-yard field goal

Except they run a fake field goal. Surprising everyone as Garry Gilliam gets the touchdown and reduces the score to 16-7. The game is in the final stages of the third quarter.
