But Patriots’ cornerback Malcolm Butler intercepted a Russell Wilson pass at the goal line and put an end to the Seahawks’ quest for a repeat championship. A play that had most people scratching their heads and wondering why (why, WHY?) did anyone tell Russell Wilson to throw that ball, when he could have handed it to the unstoppable Marshawn Lynch instead?
The “unnecessary roughness” by the Seahawks that followed as the Patriots were just 18 seconds away from the Lombardi trophy exemplified the frustrations of sports when things just don’t go your way.
But run, don’t pass, wasn’t the only thing we learned during this game.
