Us in Seattle wished you handed off that ball to Lynch instead of wanting to be the hero and throwing that horrible interception in the Superbowl.

Wasn't that on Carroll, not Wilson?

Yes it was and there is a theory it was because they wanted Wilson tk be MVP instead of Lynch because of how Lynch was back then with the press.

Which is dumb. We passed because it was second down, the clock was running with 24 seconds left, and we had 1 timeout, and Marshawn was about 30% from the goal line that year.

If we ran it we would have had to burn our last timeout, forcing pass then run for the next 2 plays.

I never said it was true lol. Just saying that's what I recall everyone was saying after the game.

Still on Wilson to make a better throw so it’s either a TD or an incomplete - not a ball that Butler could break and rip from.

As a Seattle fan, this narrative of “should’ve ran the ball” is old, tired and wrong. Wilson needed to make a better throw.

Nah they definitely should've ran it. The second it happened everyone knew it.

You must not understand defensive alignment. Belichick had 8 in the box, preparing for a run. Earlier in the season Marshawn faced the same goal line situation and fumbled away at the 1. Also, the clock was running, Belichick didn’t call a time out, and running the ball while not making it would’ve killed the game too. Wilson needed the place the ball better. Butler also just made a ridiculous play and hats off there.

Oh no, from all of us in Seattle, you’ve hurt us deeply with your witty banter.

First of all, you’re fucking stupid for thinking Russ called that play. Second of all, the whole fanbase is a bunch of back stabbing bitches for forgetting what this dude did for your franchise and city. Third round pick who did nothing but win football games including a damn Super Bowl. Then gets you 2 firsts and 2 second round picks in compensation on the way out. Never got in trouble and played the game the right way. And you hate the guy because he’s cringey? Because he doesn’t give Marshawn Lynch his cell number?
