Was the reason that playcall was made. There is no doubt in my mind about it. They wanted to pad Wilson's stats and make him the one to get the game winner so he was MVP of the superbowl and so he got all the headlines. Backfired on them badly. That is my only explanation when you have Beastmode on the 1 yd line, 2nd down, with 1 timeout and pass it.

It was going to be Wilsons' coming out party,  as a true elite qb..           when he marched his team down the field and threw a dart for a TD,  from the 1 yard line,  to win the SB.

 

 

 

 

The headlines were going to read "Patriots handled the Seahawks' legendary defense,  but had no answer for Wilson,  the SB QB Killer"

I agree with that. Hence they did not put the ball in Lynch's hands. Kinda like a statement to transition the offense over to Wilson.

Makes total sense to me,..

 

Probably why Carrolls explanation was so ridiculous.  He should have said flat out,.."it was a touchdown throw, not high risk, and Butler made a play.  99 times out of 100 it was a touchdown, and Id call it again. "

 

That would have shut up the controversy. Now we are off deflate gate and on the endless threads with everyone now an expert on what ifs in the past.

 

Butler makes one false move and everyone is talking about how brilliant the call was, how the whole Patriots defense sold out on Marshawn,.. bla bla bla.

Yeah, his explanation was weak. He actually sitting there saying they didn't run it because of their goalline package when that hadn't stopped them from still running it all year. Even Revis said in the post game that they weren't in a full goalline package. They wanted Wilson to get that game winner.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
