Seahawks, Patriots brawl at end of Super Bowl 49 (Video)
By Josh Hill
Super Bowl 49 will go down as one of the most classic Super Bowl’s ever but things couldn’t finish before the Seahawks tried to go down swinging.
The Seattle Seahawks have one of the most dominant defensive units of the past few years and their defense is legendary — thanks in large part to their epic swag. But that swag is something that is going to get them into trouble and that’s what happened at the end of the Super Bowl against the New England Patriots.
After a miraculous catch by Jermaine Kearse that shouldn’t have eve happened, if the laws of physics have a say in things, the Seahawks hopes were crushed in the worst of ways. On the goal line, the Seahawks didn’t run the ball with Marshawn Lynch, they threw it instead.
Russell Wilson completed the pass, but he completed it to the wrong team as the New England Patriots picked him off and sealed the win for New England in the most bizarre series of events.
But before the game was over, the Seahawks went down swinging and picked a brawl as the clock was running out.
This is only going to fuel hatred for the Seahawks, as their brash attitude often times costs them public appeal. Fighting as you’re clearly going to lose the Super Bowl is something that will not win them any credit and it’s a black eye on their spectacular season.
It was a fitting way for the Seahawks to go out, even if it rubs people the wrong way but that’s all too perfect for the way the Seahawks carry themselves.
