The Seattle Seahawks will have a chance to avenge their past in this Sunday’s Super Bowl LX against the New England Patriots, rekindling memories of their dramatic clash in Super Bowl XLIX. This previous matchup remains a sore spot for Seattle fans, especially recalling the controversial call made by then-head coach Pete Carroll.
In the iconic 2015 game, the Seahawks found themselves tantalizingly close to victory. They were just one yard away from the winning touchdown when a pivotal decision changed the course of the game. Instead of handing the ball to their powerful running back, Marshawn Lynch, Carroll opted for a pass attempt. This led to a fateful interception by New England’s Malcolm Butler, allowing the Patriots, led by quarterback Tom Brady and coach Bill Belichick, to secure their fourth Super Bowl title.
As both teams prepare to meet again, the players and coaches may have moved on, but the passionate rivalry and devotion of their fans remain as intense as ever. As Super Bowl LX approaches, it’s also an opportunity to highlight celebrated supporters from both teams. This includes some A-list celebrities who proudly represent the Patriots and the Seahawks. For fans, this game symbolizes not just a championship showdown but a chance for redemption and new beginnings.
