Patriots' Butler's Interception Secures Super Bowl XLIX

0:00On March 17, Super Bowl 49 pitted the New England Patriots against the Seattle Seahawks in a closed battle that ended with a 28-2. 24 Patriots victory. Tom Brady and Russell Wilson exchanged big plays throughout, but a late defensive stand sealed it for New England. The Seahawks mounted a furious final drive, advancing 75 yards to the Patriots' 5-yard line with under 2 minutes left. Marshawn Lynch powered close on first in goal, but fell short by less than a yard. Fans and analysts still debate Seattle's next call, opting for a pass instead of another handoff to Lynch against New England's run defense. That choice sparked endless second-guessing in the years since. Undrafted rookie quarterback Malcolm Butler stepped up, reading the play from practice and intercepting Wilson's quick pass and tended for Ricardo. Lock it, right in the end zone. That pick not only stopped Seattle cold, but handed the Patriots their fourth Super Bowl title, turning Butler into an instant legend and etching the game into NFL history.
