Let’s not forget that it was a great defensive play. More times than not, that call would have been successful.
Yes, a truly “SuperBowl” defensive play and actually Butler should have been MVP because of that single play: it was a win-lose proposition when he stepped in front (risking an interference call). Unfortunately, I didn’t have a media MVP vote.
Still, I think Carroll thought the win was his and that he needed to rub Brady’s nose in it by making Russell MVP.
The Stupid...it burns, it burns.
