VIDEO: It's the 9th Anniversary of Marshawn Lynch's Beast Quake Playoff TD Run Against the Saints
By Ian Anderson

Today marks the nine-year anniversary of one of the greatest plays in NFL history. On Jan. 8, 2011, Marshawn Lynch pulled off one of the best runs of all time while also securing a playoff victory for the underdog Seahawks in what will forever be known as the Beast Quake game.
Nine years ago today, Marshawn Lynch decimated the entire New Orleans defense with one of the greatest runs ever.

Nine years later and this run is still absolutely amazing. The quality of play combined with the significance of the run is otherworldly. Beast Mode broke a ridiculous eight tackles on his way to the end zone and extended the Seahawks' lead to 11 points.
The run was so crazy that the Pacific Northwest Seismic Record actually recorded a tremor at Qwest Field (now CenturyLink) at the time the run occurred.
Lynch refused to go down and iced the game for a 7-9 Seattle Seahawks team, who were 10-point underdogs at home, in the playoffs against the defending Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints.

Now 33-years old, Lynch might not be able to replicate the quality of the Beast Quake, but he still has some juice left as seen in his touchdown run against the Eagles in the Wild Card round.

All there is to say is that Marshawn has some unfinished business. Packers players better get ready to try and tackle him him on Sunday. It won't be easy.
