Worst Super Bowl Call Ever

Word has it Robert Kraft was so giddy about his New England Patriots winning another Super Bowl that he celebrated – by firing Pete Carroll again. Thereby saving any kneejerk 12s the trouble. And possibly a few of Carroll’s own players. Has a better football game ended with a worse play call? Maybe. But this was the Super Bowl and, really, there is no other game. So no decision in the first 49 Supers – or, hey, the next 49 – will go down as more ill-considered as Carroll’s rubber-stamping a foolish goal-line throw, especially into the teeth of rush hour on I-5. It’s why the Seattle Seahawks aren’t Super Bowl champions for the second straight year this morning. Never mind any no-one-play-decides-it wagon-circling. This one decided everything/ John Blanchette , SR. More here.

Question: Can you think of a play that was more disastrous for a favorite team than the bonehead pass play called by the Seattle Seahawks in the final seconds of Super Bowl XLIX?
