RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Four years ago, the Seattle Seahawks walked out of Atlanta after a defining moment that shaped what has taken place since.
A 30-28 loss to the Falcons in the divisional round of the NFC playoffs stung and lingered.
To this day it's still a touchy subject after Seattle was unable to hold on to the lead in the final 30 seconds.
But that loss also became the foundation for two NFC championships, a Super Bowl title and two more playoff appearances.
And while the people involved have changed significantly since that game, the circumstances are just as meaningful for Seattle when it travels to Atlanta for a divisional round playoff game on Saturday.
