Seattle’s Stephen Hauschka and Arizona’s Chandler Catanzaro missed short field goals that would have won the game in overtime as the Seahawks and Cardinals settled for a 6-6 tie on Sunday night.

Hauschka’s 27-yard field goal was wide left with seven seconds left after Catanzaro’s 24-yard effort bounced off the left upright.

The last tie in the NFL came in 2014, when the Carolina Panthers and Cincinnati Bengals tied 37-37.

The Cardinals (3-3-1) dominated the game statistically and looked to be in shape to win it after Carson Palmer’s 40-yard pass to JJ Nelson set up Catanzaro’s short kick.

The Seahawks (4-1-1), stuffed throughout regulation by the Arizona defence, took over and Russell Wilson completed passes of 31 yards to Jermaine Kearse and 27 yards to Doug Baldwin to give Houschka his short attempt.
