Field goal frenzy

Seattle's Jason Myers made a 40-yarder to knot things at the start of the fourth quarter before Chris Boswell nailed a 52-yard field goal — the longest on record at Heinz Field — in the final minute-and-a-half to regain the lead.

Then things got chaotic. DK Metcalf caught and then fumbled the ball, which was recovered by Seahawks receiver Freddie Swain, who raced to the line of scrimmage so Seattle could spike the ball and stop the clock with a second to spare.

Then game officials called for the drive to be stopped so Metcalf's play could be reviewed, but the game clock in the stadium had expired, sending fans into a frenzy when it was announced upon review that three seconds would be added to the clock.
