The Seahawks engaged in a back-and-forth affair as the game lead tied or changed six times in total. Russell Wilson touchdowns to Anthony McCoy and Golden Tate and a 98-yard Leon Washington kick return score were answered by rushing scores from Reggie Bush and Daniel Thomas. With the Seahawks up 21-14 rookie Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill found Charles Clay from 29 yards out. Tied 21-21, the Seahawks had to punt with 1:39 to go, and Tannehill drove the Dolphins in range for the winning Dan Carpenter field goal.

The game was interrupted briefly with 1:40 to go in the third; following a 19-yard Tannehill run the sprinklers at Sun Life Stadium suddenly switched on, soaking the field for roughly one minute.
