On Washington's ensuing extra point attempt, Joey Slye's kick was blocked by Rasheem Green, who would then recover the football and run down the left sideline nearly 80 yards for two points, tying the game at nine.

Seattle would not score on its final offensive possession of the first half, as Washington and the Seahawks entered the halftime break tied at nine.
