Super Bowl 2014: Seattle Seahawks get flagged for late hit (GIF)
By Josh Hill
The Super Bowl is underway and the Seattle Seahawks are already starting to dominate things. One way the Seahawks like to win is to get inside the heads of their opponents and one way to do that is to get chippy with hits. Seattle isn’t a dirty team but they like to stretch the rules and occasionally break them.
Seattle got their first personal foul penalty of Super Bowl XLVIII very early on when a routine touchback on a kickoff led to a late hit penalty on Seattle’s special teams unit.
Seattle doesn’t need to play dirty but it’s certainly helping to get inside the Broncos head as the 15-yard penalty did nothing for the Broncos.
