Seahawks get on the board with fake field goal
Canadian punter Jon Ryan throws TD pass
Down by 16 late in the third quarter, the Seattle Seahawks faked out the Green Bay Packers to get on the board with a Garry Gilliam touchdown in the NFC Championship.
In one of the best plays of the game, Canadian punter Jon Ryan appeared to be setting up a field goal attempt for kicker Steven Hauschka. Instead, they pulled off the perfect fake field goal touchdown.

The 33-year-old Regina native became the first Canadian to throw a touchdown pass in an NFL game since 1993, and the first punter to ever throw a touchdown pass in the NFL postseason.
