Trailing 28-24 against the Patriots in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XLIX, the Seattle Seahawks managed to march the ball all the way to the New England one-yard line in the game’s final seconds. On second down, the Seahawks made the surprising decision to call a pass play rather than give the ball to their bruising running back Marshawn Lynch, a choice that they would soon regret. Russell Wilson’s quick slant pass was intercepted by the Patriots’ Malcolm Butler, allowing New England to run out the clock and clinch their fourth Super Bowl victory under coach Bill Belichick.
