SEATTLE - The loudest stadium in America was silent. Zaza Pachulia Jersey . A return trip to the Super Bowl was slipping away.Time for the Seattle Seahawks to show why they are champions.You have the belief these guys have in one another, there is nothing you cant do, coach Pete Carroll said after an implausible comeback for a 28-22 victory over Green Bay in the NFC championship game Sunday.Plagued by turnovers and outplayed much of the day, the Seahawks staged a stunning rally built on resilience. Russell Wilson, who struggled until the final minutes, hit Jermaine Kearse for a 35-yard touchdown 3:19 into the extra period to win it.The Seahawks became the first defending champion to make the Super Bowl in 10 years, and will play the AFC champion New England Patriots, who routed Indianapolis 45-7. How Seattle got there was stunning.The will and the drive of these men is unbelievable, Wilson said. We always find a way to finish.Seattle (14-4) trailed 19-7 with about four minutes remaining and had been ineffective on offence all game. Wilson finally put a drive together with passes to Doug Baldwin and Marshawn Lynch — initially ruled a touchdown but called back because he stepped out of bounds. Wilson finished with a 1-yard scoring run to cut the lead to 19-14 with 2:09 left.The onside kick went high to Packers tight end Brandon Bostick, but he couldnt gather it, and Seattles Chris Matthews recovered at the 50. The crowd, quiet since Seattle fell behind 16-0, came alive, and Lynch sped and powered his way to a 24-yard TD run. On the 2-point conversion, Wilson — about to be sacked — threw a desperate pass hauled in by Luke Willson to make it 22-19 with 1:25 remaining.Aaron Rodgers, limping on an injured calf, calmly led the Packers (13-5) downfield to set up Mason Crosbys fifth field goal, a 48-yarder with 14 seconds to go to force overtime.Then Wilson and Kearse struck, with Kearse — the target on all four of Wilsons interceptions — beating Tramon Williams on the winning pass. Kearse has also caught the winning score in last years conference title win over San Francisco.Just making the plays at the end and keep believing, said Wilson, who was overwhelmed and sobbing after the game. There was no doubt ... we had no doubt as a team.Kearse, who has caught touchdown passes in four straight post-season games, and several other Seahawks leaped into the stands behind the end zone, saluting the stadium-record crowd of 68,538. Wilson ran through cameramen to jump on Kearses back, and defensive end Michael Bennett borrowed a bicycle from a police officer and rode around the edge of the field saluting the 12s.Until the final minutes, there seemed to be no doubt the Packers were headed to the big game Feb. 1 in Glendale, Arizona. Despite All-Pro Rodgers injury, Green Bay and its overlooked defence was carrying the day.Its going to be a missed opportunity that Ill probably think about for the rest of my career, Rodgers said. We were the better team today, we played well enough to win. We cant blame anybody but ourselves.Special teams trickery lifted the Seahawks back into the game after falling behind 16-0. Their first touchdown came on a fake field goal when holder Jon Ryan threw 19 yards to tackle eligible Garry Gilliam in the third quarter. And Matthews onside kick recovery kept the Seahawks alive.Lynch rushed for 157 yards on 25 carries and was the one consistent offensive force Seattle had. He was crucial to both late scoring drives in regulation.And after the Packers tied it, Seattle wouldnt be denied in overtime, winning the coin toss and going 87 yards in six plays.The 16-point comeback was the largest in the second half in a conference title game. The Colts defeated the Patriots after trailing 21-6 in 2006.It takes everybody and everybody had to contribute to get that done, Carroll said. It was so much heart, so much belief today. Somehow, somehow we pulled it out.The matchup of Green Bays top-ranked scoring offence against the leagues stingiest defence instead was being controlled by the Packers ability to stop — and turn over — the Seahawks. The five giveaways were the most in the Carroll era that began in 2010.The silence of the fans was remarkable for much of the windy, intermittently rain day. Rookie safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix had two interceptions and Green Bay sacked Wilson five times.Yet it wasnt enough.I felt our football team was a special group. Theyve been great all year, coach Mike McCarthy said. This is a hard one to swallow.Seahawks All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman played much of the final quarter holding his left arm at his chest. The centre of conversation after last Januarys NFC championship win against the 49ers, he quietly left the field with his arm still pinned to his body, an NFC championship towel hanging off his right arm.Sherman said after the game about the Super Bowl: I will 100 per cent be able to play.Rodgers didnt shy away from throwing at Sherman, and in an early matchup of All-Pros, Rodgers pass to rookie Davante Adams in the end zone was snagged by Sherman.But the Pack was right back in scoring position moments later when Clinton-Dix grabbed a tipped pass and returned it 26 yards to the Seattle 4. Fullback John Kuhn, another All-Pro, had his TD dive reversed by a replay review and Seattle held. Crosby made it 3-0.Doug Baldwin fumbled the ensuing kickoff at his 23, and Crosby made a 19-yarder.It didnt get better in the first half for the hosts. Randall Cobb caught an 18-yard TD pass on the final play of the opening quarter to make it 13-0; Green Bay outgained Seattle 137-3 in the period.The Seahawks initial first down came nearly eight minutes into the second quarter.Crosby nailed a 40-yarder to conclude Green Bays dominant first half. Wilson was picked off three times, had a QB rating of 0.00, and Seattle was fortunate it didnt trail by more.Even after the fake field goal TD made it 16-7, the Seahawks didnt seem likely to pull off the comeback. Yet they did, becoming the first team since New England a decade ago to return to the Super Bowl.Im honoured to be on this team, Wilson said. Im going to the Super Bowl again.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL Stephen Curry Jersey .com) - The Oakland Athletics needed to rely on a lot of young pitchers to win an American League West title this season.
