They keep talking about Wilson's throw on that last Lockett TD, but that is much more incredible catch. Lockett getting bending his foot to get the tounge of his shoe on the ground is incredible body control.
Back 15 years ago you saw recievers make one or two catches league wide per year. Now there are a few a week.
Just like 2012 when Seattle choked against Atlanta in the playoffs divisional game, the reason they didn't win that game and more during the season was zero pass rush. They had the Legion of boom but QBs had all sorts of time. They rectified it the next year with getting Bennett and others forcing QBs to make quicker deciisons and thrown it into the secondary, and there went and won the Superbowl and should've won two.
This year, just like this game, the lack of QB pressure will be the downfall of Seattle doesn't at least get to the NFCC, at this point.
