lets see..."Uncharacteristic"
They dropped a minimum of four passes, three by linebacker Joey Porter's favorite "soft" tight end, badly bearded Jerramy Stevens.
They committed seven penalties, two of them erasing a touchdown and a completion to the Steelers' 1-yard line.
They gave up not only their longest running play of the season, but the longest offensive play, period, in Willie Parker's back-breaking, 75-yard touchdown run on the second half's second play from scrimmage.
They got as many interceptions thrown by quarterback Matt Hasselbeck -- one, at a time when Seattle was close to some kind of much-needed score amid a tenuous, 14-10 Steelers lead -- as he had thrown in his previous half-dozen games.
They missed back-to-back field-goal attempts of 50-plus yards by Josh Brown.
They misfired on five of their last six third-down conversion tries.
They converted just one of their three trips inside the Steelers' 20, and this from the NFL's leader in the territory known as the red zone
