After an excellent start to Saturday's game against the Atlanta Falcons, Russell Wilson is slipping. Quite literally.
Wilson tripped over Rees Odhiambo's foot, falling backward into the end zone. The Falcons pounced all over the startled quarterback, leading to a safety, cutting the Seahawks' lead to 10-9.
Here's another angle of the play:
