The following YouTube clip shows the moment Wilson connected with Graham:
There are six seismograph stations located at CenturyLink Field. They were set up after the great “Beast Quake” of Jan. 8, 2011, when former running back Marshawn Lynch broke nine tackles during a 67-yard touchdown run to defeat the New Orleans Saints in a Wild Card playoff game. The vibrations from thousands of excited fans were recorded about a block away.
