A sampling of national-media reaction after Russell Wilson and the Seahawks slipped past the Vikings, 10-9, in a wild-card game that was one of the coldest contests in NFL history.
The Seahawks found a cure for uncommon cold: a playoff victory.
Seattle put together enough offense, then watched Blair Walsh miss a 27-yard field goal in the final seconds, to give the Seahawks a 10-9 victory over the Vikings in what was the third-coldest game in NFL history. The Seahawks rallied with 10 points in a span of 3:33 to take the lead halfway through the fourth quarter, thanks to some improvisation by Russell Wilson after a bad snap and a forced turnover by Kam Chancellor that led to a Steven Hauschka field goal.
