A boneheaded play by rookie running back Kaleb Johnson early in the fourth quarter turned a tight game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Seattle Seahawks on its ear, leading to a 31-17 Seattle victory.
The Seahawks had just kicked long Josh Myers field goal to take a three-point lead, taking a narrow lead in what had been a tight game throughout.
