The 2003 National Football Conference (NFC) Wild Card playoff game was a National Football League (NFL) playoff game between the Seattle Seahawks and Green Bay Packers on January 4, 2004. The game, which was contested at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin, became notable after Seahawks' quarterback Matt Hasselbeck proclaimed, "We want the ball and we're going to score!" when the Seahawks won the coin toss before the start of the overtime period. Hasselbeck's comment was picked up on the referee's microphone and was broadcast to the stadium and the television audiences.
Hasselbeck subsequently threw an interception on their second drive of overtime that was returned for a game-winning touchdown by Packers cornerback Al Harris. The score was the first defensive touchdown to win an overtime playoff game in NFL history and was ranked as one of the best 100 plays in NFL history. The dramatic finish advanced the Packers to the Divisional Round of the playoffs, where they lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in the 4th and 26 game.
