The infamous decision by the Seattle Seahawks during Super Bowl XLIX to throw a quick slant pass on second-and-goal from the one-yard line rather than handing the ball to star running back Marshawn Lynch is universally regarded as the worst play call in the history of the championship game. New England Patriots rookie cornerback Malcolm Butler brilliantly anticipated the route, jumped in front of the receiver for a game-clinching interception, and robbed Seattle of a potential game-winning score.
