You don't often get to pair a big change in win probability to a ridiculous, rarely-seen play, but we got that on Saturday in Seattle.
On fourth down from the two-yard line, Seattle opted to go for it. Smart choice. Russell Wilson dropped back, and threw somewhat of a desperation pass to wideout Paul Richardson.
Richardson then did his best Odell Beckham impression -- let's not talk about the potential facemask here, please -- and scored. Had the ball been dropped, we're potentially looking at a different ball game.
