Just a brutal play call. That's really all I can say. Two solid teams, evenly matched, down to the wire just like everyone predicted.
I really worry that Lynch bounces from Seattle now rather than extending (for BIG money!). I mean talk about taking a huge, sure-thing opportunity away from a guy and instead giving him a big middle finger.
There is nothing in the world of football that will ever make sense out of that call under those circumstances.
Ouch.
Pats put up 14 in the 4th so...credit where credit is due.
I don't have a problem with a pass play there. But run a bootleg with Wilson and a TE or a fade, then if you don't get it, you still have 2 downs (with a TO) to run Lynch up the gut twice. DBs are fucking taught to jump the slant in those situations. An asinine playcall.
The Kearse catch was similar to Manningham's catch and Tyree's catch, which doomed the Pats. They've won Super Bowls on crazy plays and lost Super Bowls with crazy plays. Same as other teams (e.g. Rams vs. Titans/Pats).
What a Super Bowl. It's a cliche, but often times these big games come down to 1 or 2 plays. Whoever makes them, wins the game.
Congrats to Seattle and New England. If they played ten times, it'd be 5-5.
It was a great game marred by the worst call in NFL history. Unfortunately, that's what this game will be remembered for the most - not the Pats great comeback against one of the best defenses of all time.
Other SB classics that I can remember: Giants-Bills Broncos-Packers Rams-Titans Rams-Pats Giants-Pats
I'd probably put the Broncos-Packers and Giants-Pats games as my favorites.

I can't really say anything more that's already been said. Every single person I've talked to thus far has made it unanimous in calling that play call boneheaded. All I can probably had that aside from the Seahawks fans at our party, everyone else seemed to have the attitude that this was the "who gives a shit" Super Bowl. Real weird feeling.

Yeah, very little excitement around here for these two teams.
THE HEAVENS—Following the game-ending interception against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLIX, God Almighty, Creator and Supreme Ruler of the Universe, confirmed Monday that He “can’t fucking stand Russell Wilson” and that the Seattle Seahawks star quarterback “can go fuck himself.” “I hate Russell Wilson, so fuck him, and fuck the Seahawks,” said the Heavenly Father, adding that Jermaine Kearse’s incredible catch on Seattle’s final drive was indeed a case of divine intervention, but only so Wilson could then throw an interception that cost his team the Super Bowl. “I mean, the look on his face right after I made him throw that pick on the goal line was just priceless. He’s so fucking annoying, so I wanted to get his hopes up and then crush him in front of the whole world. Self-righteous little prick.” Despite subsequently allowing the Patriots to win their fourth Super Bowl title, God also clarified that Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, and Robert Kraft are all “dirty fucking cheats” who will spend an eternity in Hell after they die.

I feel like this was a template that was used for Tim Tebow three seasons ago and for Kurt Warner on a couple occasions.

First year ever that I did not watch a snap of the Super Bowl. Pitchers and catchers report this month. All is right with the world.

great game! My favorite two moments were watching Kurt Warner deliver the trophy to Brady and Kraft getting drunker by the post game interview. like an awesome downward spiral
