When I saw them line up in a shotgun on the goal I thought to myself 'A pass play? Gotta be a ruse.' But nope. Intercepted. Blown.

Too bad both teams couldn't lose.

If your gonna pass in that spot with Wilson why not bootleg? That being said the pass was there and on time the db just made a play. 1 Time out still could try the run then a pass if need be.

Hammerhead call. One of the best runners in the game, with at least one and maybe two time outs left. The ball on the one and 1/2 yard line. And you throw a pass to the middle of the field????

I was befuddled that anyone could make it to the top ranks of the NFL and do something so utterly stupid. I'd rather have seen the Pack or Dallas in this game, at least they arent as dumb.

I don't think it would have been as good of a game with Dallas or GB that being said every SB that NE has played in has been great I think.

I dislike both teams. 

I was astounded at times what I saw.

Some odd things transpired.

I like both teams (live near Seattle, and two starters on the Patriots went to the University of Michigan, my alma mater, so I like them, too) and thought it was an amazing game.

It had astonishing plays.  It was exciting throughout.  It could have gone either way down to the last.

WTH was Seattle thinking?  They should have just handed off to Lynch but even if you were going to pass it should have been to the corner or the back of the end zone, not into traffic in the middle of the field at the goal line.

They got what they deserved.  Too bad since I wanted an NFC win but I suppose congratulations are in order to Belichick, Brady and the Pats for having a SB win handed to them.

Worse yet they had a chance to stay in the game with a safety and a free kick but got the penalty to let NE totally off the hook.

This.

Same thing as when the 49ers lost to the Ravens by passing attempts when Gore could have just run it in.  When you have a guy like Lynch or Gore and you're in scoring position with downs and time for them to easily make the touchdown for the game winning score what the heck are you doing tossing the ball?

Yep. The MVP for the Pats should have been the Offensive coordinator for Seattle (Bevell) This isn't the first time he's made really stupid calls in a game (Cowboys game comes to mind)
He's gone for sure this spring.

 Good game ruined, bad call by an egotistical football coach.  The Seahawks like to flap their lips. highly egotistical like their coach.

To make it worse at the end of the game they started a mini brawl over losing the game.

What they showed was a lack of class to go with their egos.  Seahawks diminished opinions of them because of that fight.

Justice prevailed in this case.  Best play the game with your mouth closed and exhibit your prowess with your play.

Pete will be forever known as brain fart Pete.  Well deserved. Egos usually go down in flames at some point.

Happened last night, ruined a good game imho.

Defenses line up 8 or 9 in the box at the goal line and the last kinda play you want to call is a slant right to the goal line. Most of all when your slot receiver is picking which means that only your WR is going to get the ball and makes it an easy read made easier by the fact Wilson looked at one and only one receiver. But even worse Wilson had 25 seconds with one time out left. He had good protection and ended up having 5 eligible receivers one of whom, Lynch, looked like he may have ended up being open in the left end zone had the Hawks gave a few seconds for the play to develop.

OK so you have to throw the ball away. You still have two downs to make it happen and theres no way Lynch would run twice from that distance and not score. Boy this one was really sticky. Not that I care cause I dislike both teams but Im glad we at least had a good ball game to watch.

I were about to give Wilson a spot among the big elephants of QBs but that interception... I really doubt that Rodgers, or Brady, would have made that throw. But im glad he did, it meant some money for me.

(The 4 elephants among the active QBs is Rodgers, Manning, Brady & Brees, aldough some of them are sliding down theslope on the back side of their careers)

Wilson is 10-1 against those QBs now. 1 for 1 in the Super Bowl. Not bad for a 3 year QB.  :rock
