Seattle Seahawks star running back Marshawn Lynch refused to answer questions and pushed a camera away following their Super Bowl 49 loss against the New England Patriots.
Marshawn Lynch was very upset following the Seattle Seahawks’ 28-24 loss at the hands of Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. Despite a furious comeback attempt on the last drive, Russell Wilson ended up throwing an interception in the end zone to Malcolm Butler that ended the game.
It was an unfortunate loss for the Seahawks, especially because they made the wrong decision on the final play of the game. Lynch should have been given the football to get the one yard that they needed to win the football game. He was very unhappy after the game as expected, and actually pushed a camera away as he walked past.
That type of behavior is the type of thing that media members have begun to grow accustomed to from Lynch. Whether they learned from the infamous “Yeah” interview or the multiple on-field antics that he has had this past season, he has a very inconsistent relationship with the media. They love the stories that he gives him, but they hate the ones that he doesn’t.

Lynch had a very nice game all the way up until that point, and recorded 102 yards and a touchdown on 24 carries. He also caught a pass for 31 yards in the loss.
Needless to say, the Seahawks are wishing that they could have that play call back right about now. They had put together a great game plan up until the very last play, and simply fell away from what they did best.
All of that being said, it will be very interesting to hear what Seahawks players say over the next week or two. More information is shared after players have time to calm down and move on, and that will likely be the case once again with the Super Bowl loss. New England played a great football game as well, and both teams were evenly matched like it was expected to be.
Seattle will have some decisions to make this offseason and they will likely try to find ways to lock up both Wilson and Lynch long-term. Those two contracts are going to cost a lot of money, but they desperately need to bring both of them back to make another run at winning the NFC once again next season.
