The University of Phoenix Stadium has given the New England Patriots plenty of unfortunate moments in Super Bowl play. 
 
 In the same stadium that New York Giants receiver David Tyree made the legendary helmet catch, Seattle Seahawks receiver Jermaine Kearse made a catch that may have been even more unbelievable. 
 
 With the Seahawks looking to score the go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter Sunday night, New England cornerback Malcolm Butler did what he could to break up a deep pass from Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson to Kearse. However, the ball took a couple of Seattle bounces and stayed up long enough for Kearse to make the catch while he lay on the ground. 
 
 Unfortunately for the Seahawks, Wilson threw an interception a couple of plays later to essentially end the game, 28-24. Butler was the one who came up with the game-sealing pick:

 That's because Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin decided to take Randy Moss up a notch and, um, pretend to defecate on the football after scoring a touchdown.

 Here's a GIF of Baldwin's celebratory act. You don't see the whole thing, because NBC cut away from it without showing it on TV. "We felt it was inappropriate to replay," a NBC rep told Neil Best of Newsday. 
 
 Kids these days.

 Even though Seattle eventually lost, it was a huge play to give the Seahawks a 10-point lead over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLIX. Suppose you can do whatever you want when you beat Darrelle Revis on the play, but it did cost Baldwin a 15-yard penalty. 
 
 Why did he do it? Baldwin wasn't saying after the game, but he did say it was directed toward someone.

– New England cornerback Malcolm Butler tonight stole Seattle's dream of a second straight championship, ESPN reports. With the Patriots leading 28-24 in the waning seconds of Super Bowl XLIX, the Seattle Seahawks drove down the field and even saw receiver Jermaine Kearse complete a miracle catch (Bleacher Report has video). But Butler intercepted a Russell Wilson pass on the goal line to snatch the game away. Seattle had grabbed a 10-point lead early in the second half with a field goal and a Wilson TD pass to wide receiver Doug Baldwin. (Weird side note: Baldwin incurred a 15-yard penalty for pretending to defecate the football after scoring, Yahoo Sports reports.) New England fired back with two Tom Brady TD passes, to wide receivers Danny Amendola and Julian Edelman. The first half was more of a see-saw battle. The Pats struck first with a Brady pass to slanting wide receiver Brandon LaFell. Seattle's initially anemic offense then came to life with a strong drive and a Marshawn Lynch rushing TD. The Pats returned fire with a 22-yard Brady pass to Rob Gronkowski. The Seahawks ended the first half by boldly foregoing a field-goal attempt in the red zone with less than 10 seconds on the clock. Russell Wilson connected with wide receiver Chris Matthews to even the game at 14-14 going into the locker room. It was a "much better game than last year," according to one comment on ESPN's Live Super Bowl Blog.
