BOSTON (CBS) — Tom Brady won his fourth Lombardi Trophy and third Super Bowl MVP award Sunday night.
But he wouldn’t have accomplished that without a clutch interception by undrafted rookie Malcolm Butler, who picked off Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson at the New England one-yard line with just seconds remaining in Super Bow XLIX to seal the victory for the Patriots.
“I think there are a lot of people who are very deserving of this award,” Brady said Monday morning in Arizona as he collected his latest MVP trophy.
As MVP, Brady also received a shiny new Chevy truck. While he didn’t hand his MVP trophy to Butler, the quarterback is doing the next best thing: He’s giving him the truck.

I think those trucks, fully loaded, retail at well over $60K.
Correct, he is presently the lowest paid on the team.

LMAO!

>> “I sense that Russell Wilson is also a class act” <<
.
U-bet! - So is Marshawn Lynch.

Brady threw 4 touchdowns against the Seahawks. Brady was Player of the Game.
.
If you were a class act you wouldn’t be doing the MSM’s work for them.
.
.
There is no tax on gifts to the recipient.
.
.
He took all of the wind out of yours! :o)

It would have all been for nothing without Butler’s terminal ruin of the ‘hawks chance.
He didn’t just tip the ball so they could score on the next play.
.
“Couple years ago they gave the MVP a Corvette. Why’d they go cheap this year?”
Because they thought the Seachickens would win, and in Seattle a truck is more practical.
The 4x 4 3500 model is $66 k
The only reason Seahawks were in a position to win it was because of the freak, once in million catch. If Seattle had won the game would that be the big story, how they lucked out and won the Super Bowl after their defense was shredded by Tom Brady. That should be the story of this game. How Brady saw that he had no running game to speak of, then commenced to destroy the Seahawks secondary. Seahawks got in the Super Bowl off miracle plays, last year and this year. Miracles eventually run out.
I can’t imagine how; but in some way, shape, or form; this act by Brady will probably result in accusations of racism.
No, the Seahawks were in it because of foolish personal fouls.
Especially the one that revived their last drive!
.
.
Yep! - Driving Stove Bolt trucks is a ‘Black’ thing!
.
It's a Chevy which is Gubmint Motors which is Obama and Brady hates Obama so much he gave the pickup away.
RACISM.
It’s Corvette that went cheaper than Chevy bidding for the spot.
Hogwash.
Sour grapes.
*One* ball was under-inflated. One.
Find something else to care about. It’s football. A game.
In the scheme of worrisome things that are going on here and around the world. Geesh.
i thought edelman was the mvp.
but its cool that he gave it to butler.
If that was true, that would be a first.
