Already up by two scores late in the fourth quarter against the Detroit Lions, the Seattle Seahawks poured it on with a hilarious twist. Russell Wilson saw Jermaine Kearse beat his man off the line of scrimmage and lofted a pass his way into the end zone. The only problem for Kearse? Doug Baldwin was also in the vicinity.
And Baldwin, who was already having a huge night, wasn’t about to be denied.
Kearse had the TD…
But @DougBaldwinJr jumped in front & grabbed it with one hand!🤔 #DETvsSEA #NFLPlayoffs https://t.co/AWU8vZyEZF

This one-handed grab was one of many such ridiculous grabs by Seahawks players on this night. Earlier in the game Paul Richardson got the party started with a controversial one-handed touchdown grab in the second quarter in which he also grabbed a handful of facemask in the process (watch here).
Baldwin’s touchdown grab was his 11th of the night and it put the Seahawks up by the score of 26-6 with just over three minutes left to play.
