Super Bowl 49 New England 28 Seattle 24

Mad Sports Radio

A competitive affair, Super Bowl XLIX saw the Patriots overcome a 10-point deficit during the fourth quarter to take a 28–24 lead with 2:02 remaining. The game is best remembered for the Seahawks' last play, where they threatened to score a winning touchdown at New England's 1-yard line, but were intercepted in the final moments by Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler. Butler's interception is regarded as one of the greatest in NFL history, while Seattle's decision to pass instead of run the ball is considered one of the worst calls. Brady was named Most Valuable Player (MVP) for the third time, tying the record held by Joe Montana, after setting the Super Bowl record for completions at 37. Two years later, Brady would break his completions record in Super Bowl LI. NBC's broadcast of Super Bowl XLIX is the most watched program in American television history.[
