4.) Brady makes it a one-score game

The Patriots were down by 10 which was the largest deficit Bill Belichick and Brady have ever faced in a Super Bowl, but the duo never panicked.

Seattle had a quick three-and-out at the start of the fourth quarter, and New England quickly made things interesting with a strong nine-play, 68-yard drive that ended in a touchdown from Brady to Danny Amendola.

This touchdown made it a three-point game with 4:15 remaining in the game, and this is when things really started to get interesting.

3.) Go-ahead score from Brady

Like a lot of the day, Seattle’s offense couldn’t get going after the latest Brady touchdown and they were forced to another three-and-out.

No team had ever come back from more than a seven-point deficit in the final quarter, but the Patriots were about to change that.

Brady led New England to yet another impressive long drive (this time a 10-play drive), and this one ended in Brady connecting with Edelman for what would be the game-winning touchdown with just over two minutes to play.

It was Brady’s fourth touchdown of the game, and probably his most important score in any Super Bowl.
