The matchup between the Patriots' No. 1-ranked offense and the Seahawks' No. 1-ranked defense instead turned in to a starring performance for Wilson -- and a shocking rally.

Wilson hit Braylon Edwards on fourth down for a 10-yard TD pass to get the Seahawks within 23-17. After two holds by Seattle's defense, Wilson found Rice open on a double move. Steven Hauschka's extra point gave the Seahawks the lead.

Tom Brady and the Patriots (3-3) then were stopped on fourth down at their 28 when Wes Welker came up 2 yards short, and the Seahawks (4-2) were able to celebrate the unlikely comeback.
