It's easy, and only takes a few moments.According to Sherman, the reason he went after Brady after the game was because Brady was talking a lot of s*** during the game (which I believe as Brady is a notorious trash talker). Brady was calling their D pretenders or something like that.Remember Sherman going U MAD BRO? to Brady in 2012 after the Seahawks pulled out a 24-23 squeaker? You know the Patriots did. Crushing their souls was absolutely DELIGHTFUL.
I bought a long-sleeve tee on Ebay with that phrase on the front and an image of the pick on the back...some of the best $25 I've spent..."The Butler Did It!" is right there but it never really caught on.
It depends on the way the refs rule on it...?: what happens rule-wise if Malcolm goes down in the end zone instead of coming out a few steps?

If the ball was caught on the goal line, and moved into the field of play by butler, and he is forced into the end zone, it's a safety
If it's caught and downed in the end zone, it's a touchback
If it's caught on the goalline and the impetus of the tackle brings him down in the end zone, it depends on a ruling buttbut it should be a touchback...
All depends on the position of the ball at the time of the catch
Greatest defensive play in Super Bowl history (I loved Malcom Butler). I was in complete shock when it happened. Didn't go to sleep until 3:45 am after that Super Bowl (always take the day off after a Patriot's SB). Was watching all the sports channels to see the highlights over and over, was so amped up.That was THE greatest play I’ve seen in my 61 years on earth!
The touchback would have ended the game. The Patriots would have had the ball at the 20, with 20 seconds left. Seattle had 1 time out, so two kneel downs and game over.Thanks!
If I can bother you a second longer, which of either the safety, the touchback or 1st and 10 at the 2 closes out the game the best? I.e., who retains possession of the ball after the interception in the first two cases? Or, was coming out the best way to ensure a win?
In a somewhat similar way, I've wondered where the ball would've been spotted had Tedy Bruschi and not Jeff Saturday recovered the fumble by Dominic Rhodes at the Pats' goal line during the 2006 AFCC...I'll always believe that a pre-stroke Tedy reacts just a split second more quickly and tears it away from that feckin Clots OLman...?: what happens rule-wise if Malcolm goes down in the end zone instead of coming out a few steps?
