(SportsNetwork.com) - The Seattle Seahawks were a yard away from tasting the rainbow for a second straight year. All they had to do was give it to their beast. At least youd think so ... right? Instead, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll elected to throw a slant pass to Ricardo Lockette and it was intercepted by New England rookie Malcolm Butler, sealing a 28-24 Patriots victory in Super Bowl XLIX. Thats my fault totally, Carroll said of the peculiar play call. Marshawn Lynch, who carried the ball 24 times for 102 yards and a touchdown in a bulldozing performance toting the rock, didnt get his chance to reach the end zone after powering for four yards the play prior. Rather than giving it to his All-Pro running back, the Seahawks went to a receiver with 18 career receptions. As Butler cut in front of Lockette, a dejected Carroll dropped his head and fell to his knees. He was as visibly numb during his postgame press conference. I cant even feel it, Carroll said. For it to come down to a play like that, I hate that we have to live with that, because we did everything right to win the football game at the end. With Seattle trailing by four after Tom Brady tossed a go-ahead 3-yard touchdown pass to Julian Edelman with 2:02 left, Russell Wilson lofted a 31- yard completion along the left sideline to Lynch. Wilson hit Lockette for a gain of 11 on a 3rd-and-10 to move the ball into Patriots territory and Jermaine Kearse hauled in a miraculous 33-yard reception a play later to set up the goal-to-go situation. They made one more play than we did, Wilson said. It was only a couple of hours earlier that Carroll reaped in the rewards of a courageous decision. Seattle faced a 1st-and-10 at the New England 11 with six seconds to go in the opening half after Lockette snagged a 23-yard reception and Patriots cornerback Kyle Arrington was whistled for a facemask penalty. Carroll elected to take a shot at the end zone, and Wilson connected with Chris Matthews on a back-shoulder throw in the front left corner to tie the game at 14-14 going into the break. Except nobodys going to remember that gutsy call. Not anymore. Tyler Graovac Jersey .

After deputy commissioner Bill Daly said the league would consider pulling out of Sochi if something "significant" happens before players arrive, those set to participate are trying not to worry about that scenario. "Between the NHL and the NHLPA and the Olympic people, in communication obviously with the people in Russia, theyre going to advise us if we shouldnt go," Ken Holland of Canadas management team said Tuesday. "Im looking at the lead of the NHL. "Until they tell us were not going, Im going to Newark and going to jump on a plane and go to Sochi." A Hockey Canada spokesman said the organization had no official comment, adding nothing has changed about the situation. Charter planes are scheduled to leave for Sochi on Feb. 9, two days after the opening ceremony. Security concerns are keeping athletes on edge well before that, though Daly said in an email to the Associated Press he doesnt expect the plan to change. "Obviously, if something significant were to transpire between now and February 9 that causes us to question that conclusion, we will re-evaluate," Daly told the AP. Forward Tomas Tatar, who will represent Slovakia, read about that Tuesday morning before the Detroit Red Wings morning skate. "There would (have to) be a good reason if something happens before," Tatar said. "Obviously that would be not everythings OK there, so I would probably agree with the people here — why we should go there if something is not good? Hopefully nothing will happen and I think everythings in good hands." Olympic teammate Andrej Meszaros, a defenceman for the Philadelphia Flyers, said that possibility is in the back of his mind even if he doesnt want it to be. "It would be disappointing, thats for sure, but safety first," Meszaros said. "Theres nothing you can do about it. "Unfortunately, the world is like it is with the threats and theres nothing you can do about it. People are (ticked) off. Well see what happens in the next few days." Mark Streit, who represented Switzerland in Salt Lake City in 2002, is trying to keep his focus on the Flyers upcoming schedule and not the off-chance NHL players wont go to Sochi. ";The NHL will do what they think is the best for the players and for our safety and for the families safety," Streit said.dddddddddddd "Thats out of (our) control. Im not really worried about that." Jimmy Howard, whos expected to be the third U.S. goaltender, is more worried about bouncing back from another knee injury. He insisted hes not thinking about Olympic contingency plans or security concerns. "Im trying not to let that consume me,"Howard said. "I look at it as this could be possibly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. "Im hoping everything goes off without a hitch." U.S. forward James van Riemsdyk said after the Maple Leafs morning skate in Toronto on Tuesday he doesnt have any family members going and that its tough not to wonder about the safety of athletes in Sochi. "Theyve reassured us that theyre taking a lot of measures over there," van Riemsdyk said. "All the players want to play, thats not really the issue here. Safety is the No. 1 priority." Jakub Voracek of the Czech Republic is hoping the Russian government has spent enough money to keep everyone safe. "I think the security, its very tight there," the Flyers winger said. "Obviously its going to be a pain, probably, for the people that want to watch the games or something. But its what you got to do. "In todays world you never know what happens. You go into the mall right here and theres a shooting. You go to the movie theatre, you get shot. A lot of crazy people running around in the world today. Its not only in Russia. Youve got to make sure that the securitys very tight." While Howard hopes these are just "empty threats" against the Olympics, Holland recalled similar concerns going into Vancouver. Political concerns in that region of Russia have made this seem like a more dangerous situation. "I think in this world we live in today, unfortunately there are times that you always have concern," Holland said. "But you have to trust that the people that are in charge of security are going to be on top of things." The Players Association said in a statement "the NHLPA continues to be in contact with Olympic and security officials regarding plans for the Olympic Games in Sochi, and will work closely with all concerned to monitor matters in advance of and during the Games."
