Super Bowl XLIX. Seattle vs. New England. The Seahawks are on the one yard line with the chance to win back to back Lombardis and the game in their hands. You know whose hands the ball should’ve been in?! Marshawn Lynch. Instead, Russell Wilson threw the ball into the arms of Patriots’ cornerback Malcolm Butler. The rest, as they say, is history. But what if Russ handed off to Beastmode for the game winning touchdown? How does a Seahawks Super Bowl win alter the Brady/Belichick legacy? Does Pete Carroll become the greatest coach of all time? And does Marshawn Lynch become a fashion mogul and turn Skittles into a top-selling health food?! Find out on Alternate Routes.
