NFL Teams That Will Never Live Down Their Embarrassing Mistakes

Russell Wilson Throws Away The Super Bowl

Logic states that if you have Marshawn Lynch with the ball on the goal line and the game about to end, you run the ball. The Seattle Seahawks see the logic in that statement now, after electing to pass the ball straight to the New England Patriots to end the Super Bowl in 2015. With 30 seconds left in the game, Seattle needed a touchdown to win back-to-back Super Bowl titles. Everyone except Bill Belichick was expecting a run. Seattle did the “unexpected” and had Ricardo Lockette run a quick slant in the middle of the field. Malcolm Butler jumped the route and picked the ball off, leading to another Boston title celebration. The Seahawks have stayed competitive since, but the play call has lead to noted in-fighting amongst players and the coaching staff.
