2003 NFC Wild Card playoff game (Seattle–Green Bay)

The game, which was contested at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin, became notable after Seahawks' quarterback Matt Hasselbeck proclaimed, "We want the ball and we're going to score!"

The dramatic finish advanced the Packers to the Divisional Round of the playoffs, where they lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in the 4th and 26 game.

[2] The Packers only won the division after the Minnesota Vikings gave up two late touchdowns to the Arizona Cardinals in the last game of the year.

[8][9] The Packers started the game with the ball, but after a 10-yard catch by Bubba Franks for a first down, the team was stopped and forced to punt.

After receiving a Seahawks punt, the Packers broke through to tie the game on a 5-play, 37-yard drive culminating in a Ryan Longwell field goal.

The Seahawks regained possession after the score, but their drive went backwards, as they lost a total of 18 yards on a sack, a fumble and a rush for negative yardage.

Matt Hasselbeck completed three separate passes each over 10 yards and Shaun Alexander scored on a fourth down rush from the 1-yard line.

The Packers started their next drive strong, gaining 20 yards on two plays to put the ball at mid-field, but after two incompletions they were forced to punt.

The Seahawks again engineered a long scoring drive, punctuated by a 33-yard catch by Koren Robinson and Alexander's second rushing touchdown, again from the 1-yard line.

After a short rush by Green, the Packers called timeout and brought Longwell on for a potential game-winning field goal.

Al Harris jumped the route and stepped in front of the intended receiver, Alex Bannister, intercepting the ball at mid-field and returning it for a walk-off touchdown.

Much of the post-game analysis focused on Hasselbeck's bold claim after the overtime coin toss and the play made by Harris to win the game.

[14][15] After the game, the Manitowoc Herald-Times noted that the victory was a team win, with key contributions coming from multiple players on offense and defense.

The ensuing Eagles' field goal tied the game at the end of the fourth quarter, forcing overtime.

[23][24][25] Hasselbeck returned to Lambeau Field for a Monday Night Countdown in 2017 only to find a picture of Harris' interception in his hotel room.
