But as much as we see the pain in SB42, just remember that the Seahawks probably feel the same way about Malcolm Butler.
Did the Pats prevent a perfect season?
No, but they did prevent what would have been a really scenario for the Seahawks fans.
Think about it, if the Seahawks score and win SB 49 then they not only would have won back to back Super Bowls, which immediately puts them on another level from a historical perspective.....BUT they would have won those back-to-back Super Bowls against the two greatest QBs of all time, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. I mean, wow, as if winning wasn't good enough to throw that accolade on top of it would have been surreal. But alas, Malcolm was the party pooper and foiled their place in history.
