I don't think the play call was that crazy.
I'm not sure they would have been able to manage 3 runs in 20 seconds, maybe 2 runs and an incomplete pass... Do the pass first as the patriots will be setting up to stop the run.
Also you want the clock to go down far enough that the pat's wouldn't have a chance at a Hail Mary... Much easier to control with a throw than a run.
As long as the pass isn't an interception it makes good sense...
Frankly it was good defending that made it look like a silly idea, if that had been a touchdown pass (or even incomplete) no-one would have thought it a strange play to choose

I am genuinely annoyed about that play call, and I don't even like the Seahawks (nor the Patriots).
Why would you do that?
