Russell Wilson Thought He Had It
You look at it again and again, on video taken from the field, in a still image from above, and you still can't quite grasp how it played out the way it did. Ricardo Lockette seemed wide open.

NBC Director Cut Away From Ball-Pooping Celebration To Protect Us
On Sunday, Doug Baldwin celebrated his touchdown to put the Seahawks up 24-14 by pooping the football. (Seattle never scored again. Curse of the poopball? Hmmmm.) Only, the dozens of millions of people watching at home never saw it, because NBC abruptly cut away....
Pete Carroll Denies Reports That He Changed Seahawks' Final Play
Pete Carroll, who subscribes to one of the more explosive conspiracy theories out there, categorically denies any truth to the conspiracy theory that the Seahawks' desire to make a Super Bowl hero out of Russell Wilson and not Marshawn Lynch led him to overrule the fateful playcall....

Malcolm Butler's Interception As Called By Patriots & Seahawks Radio
You've heard the NBC call of last night's decisive goal-line interception by Malcolm Butler, but if you haven't had the opportunity to experience the thrill of victory (Patriots radio, via WBZ, above) or the agony of defeat (KIRO Seahawks radio, below) then here's your opportunity. Patriots analys...
Jermaine Kearse's Insane Super Bowl Catch, In Extreme Slow Motion
Jermaine Kearse completed one of the wildest catches in Super Bowl history, one that won't be remembered due to the inexplicable decision that followed. Here's our attempt to make the memory last just a bit longer; we recommend watching it in HD and fullscreen, just to take advantage of all the fa...
Here's Video Of Doug Baldwin's Flagged Touchdown Celebration
NBC might have cut away from Doug Baldwin's touchdown celebration, but this fan in the stands didn't. Now, let us debate: Is the Seahawk pooping the football, or laying it like an egg? This is surely the most pressing issue from last night's Super Bowl....
Anonymous Seahawk Blames Final Play Call On Anti-Lynch Conspiracy
It's important to try and understand the bone-deep despair that has no doubt infected the Seattle Seahawks before judging their postgame comments. A certain madness can come from a gut-punch like the one they suffered in the final seconds of Super Bowl XLIX, and that madness can lead to people sayin...
The Patriots Knew Exactly What Was Coming
Legacies turn on so little.

Presumably, you've seen this play by now. But repeated viewing is instructive, because enough looks at this miscarriage of tactics should put the lie to any rationalizations you might be batting around. ...

Here is Pete Carroll fumbling around an explanation for why he decided to throw against the Patriots on 2nd-and-1 from the one-yard line instead of unleashing Marshawn Lynch a couple of times.

NBC Cut Away From Doug Baldwin's Wonderfully Vulgar TD Celebration
Is this the Randy Moss moon? Or are we calling it Doug Baldwin pooping out a football? Who cares, this rules. Blame NBC for cutting away before we could see if Doug did the shimmy, but those are good mooning/pooping fundamentals either way. ...
