Before the ‘Beast Quake’ run that happened January 8th, 2011, Marshawn Lynch was another good but not yet great running back who a few months earlier, was traded to the Seattle Seahawks from the Buffalo Bills. But one evening against the 11-5 defending champion New Orleans Saints, though, changed his career forever. Before the run, the Seahawks were up 34-30 with just over four minutes to play in the game. On 2nd and 10, Lynch broke through 9 tackles in route to a 67 yard score to clinch the game. For the next four years, Lynch has become synonymous with the run just as much as he is with his quips toward the media.
Lynch is officially ruled out for Seahawks match against the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC wild card round. To watch the clip of the classic run, watch it below.
