The Seahawks mismanaged their possession after the lucky catch. They lost their composure and wasted a timeout. The next play was a good one to lynch but the wasted timeout led to a situation where they overthought themselves. They got too worried about the clock and just needed to go to their bread and butter. As a dallas fan I was shaking my head because while there was some improvement this year....over the years I can't tell you how many times I've seen romo and Garrett do things like that to blow games. You run the ball there period. At worst run a play action boot. That was a terrible decision to throw it into the teeth of the defense.

The excuse was that Seattle had three wide outs on the field and Patriots ran on their goal line defense. If that was true then the pass call was actually the right play.

Not into the middle of the field it isn't. You run a fade. You throw an out. You run the ball. Something other than the middle of the field. Didn't anyone learn from our mistake?

Heh. The Seahawks only got into the Super Bowl by the Packers being idiots late in the game. They then proceed to lose the Super Bowl by being idiots late in the game. :p

I think Jurecki nailed this one with his prediction from Friday - 28-24 Pats. Either that, or he had 27-24. Either way, pretty close.

Surprisingly the halftime show was somewhat acceptable this year depite being all mainstream pop but it must have been pretty epic ending live at the stadium with the fireworks.

I was fortunate to guess close enough.

I am donating my tickets to someone who lives closer. Have fun whoever goes.

Iceman will determine who gets them.

Oh boy. Thanks for the pressure. How do you think we should determine the winner Bull? Next best prediction?

This is funny. Wonder if the stupid play call by Petey will determine if Lynch will leave?

Great ending to the game. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving group. Hearts ripped out? Hell yeah they were! And now they have to start to dismantle this team so they can pay a QB who has 2 conference championships and a SB ring already in hand, but was never THE reason for those accomplishments.

Hope you enjoyed your run, Seattle. Welcome back to parity.
