The game thread reactions are courtesy of Pats Pulpit and The Falcoholic (Note: their positions will be flipped after 28-9). I know the Field Gulls contingent was overwhelmingly rooting for the Falcons to win, myself included, but even I had to smile and appreciate what unfolded after Atlanta went up 28-3, and then hurriedly run to my car and listen on radio after my entire block briefly lost power literally at the two-minute warning. James White’s determined two-yard run gave New England a truly improbable 34-28 win. It took a record-setting 25-point comeback and the first ever overtime in Super Bowl history for the Patriots to stun the Atlanta Falcons at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. But Malcolm Butler wouldn’t have had the chance to make the play if Lynch had been given the ball.A little over two years after Trent Dilfer famously declared the New England Patriots as “not good anymore” following a 41-14 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, the Patriots have hoisted their second Super Bowl title in the last three years, and their fifth since the 2001 season. “It’s a miraculous play the kid made to get in front of that route.” “We were playing for third and fourth down. “We didn’t want to run against the goal line group right there,” Carroll said. The added benefit in throwing the ball, in the eyes of Carroll and offensive co-ordinator Darrell Bevell, was they could take a few more seconds off the clock, leaving the Patriots with less time to try to level the score when they got the ball back. It was only second down - which meant even if Wilson failed to connect with Lockette and score the touchdown, Seattle would still have two more attempts to score. In response, Seattle lined up with three receivers out wide, leaving Lockette one-on-one with rookie cornerback Butler - who had never intercepted a ball in his NFL career. He’d seen New England line up in what’s known as their goal-line defence, where they position as many players as possible directly in front of the ball because they’re expecting a running play. Shattered Seattle coach Pete Carroll explained the decision after the final whistle. ![]() A shattered Seahawks quarterback, Russell Wilson. ![]()
