The NFC Championship game ended in an incredibly thrilling, entertaining and controversial way. Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman made a big play defending a game-winning pass in the end zone intended for Michael Crabtree. The two got into a scuffle sort of and then Sherman went on an epic rant while Erin Andrews attempted to interview him.
The internet then melted and there were 174,656 tweets per minute as the game came to an end. It was hard to keep up with everyone talking about Sherman and Crabtree.
