    Two minutes left, and to calmly and cooly make your way down from your own goal line to theirs with the clock eating away is unreal. Like in rugby, if you win a scrum on your 5m line and slowly and calmly over phase and phase use your forwards to bully forward bit by bit over a 100 metres with 2 minutes left. It’s spectacular.

    Martin, I personally thought that was more a catastrophic call by Carroll rather that a great play – when you look back on it, it was a dreadful decision, one of the worst in SB history considering Seattle had Beast-mode waiting in the back-field.

    It may have been a poor call by Wilson but it is the play than makes it!!!beast mode or not on your own 1 yard line and you do that , take that hit on the way out!! Once in a lifetime play
