There is an off-topic perspective that kinda grinds my gears. Super Bowl hype is automatically assigned to the winning team's quarterback. That was true for Tom Brady and Super Bowl XLIX too.
However, it was Malcolm Butler clutch play that won the championship for New England because of Pete Carroll's arrogance like you mentioned. It was a spectacular defensive play made on 2nd & Goal:
Ricardo Lockette hesitates running the inside slant for a split second but I would argue it would not have mattered. Butler still gets a great jump on the route and would have likely jarred the ball out of Lockette's grasp and caused an incompletion anyway. That would have been a better outcome for Seahawks since they had two more downs and twenty seconds to score.
One thing is certain. Marshawn Lynch will forever agree Carroll got cute on the fateful call.
