2015 Super Bowl: An Early Guide to NFLs Championship Game For the first time since Tom Brady and the New England Patriots won three out of four Super Bowls, an NFL team may defend the Lombardi Trophy. The Seattle Seahawks completed one of the most dramatic NFC Championship Game wins of all time, coming back from a 16-0 deficit to clinch their berth in Super Bowl XLIX. There, theyll face the New England Patriots—who, despite a hard-won reputation for being one of the leagues best playoff teams, are 1-of-6 in AFC Championship Games and 0-of-2 in Super Bowls in the decade since that early-aughts run. Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, after a miserable four-interception outing nearly ended his teams season a week early, has a chance to become the youngest quarterback in NFL history to win two Super Bowls. Hell have to go through the previous record-holder, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. Brady, should the Patriots win, would be the first quarterback to go a decade between Super Bowl victories. Not only would it cement his place as one of the very best of all time, but it would also cement the Brady/Belichick Patriots as the greatest dynasty the NFLs ever seen. Super Bowl XLVIIIs matchup between the Seahawks and Denver Broncos was widely regarded as the best on-paper matchup in years; instead it was arguably the least competitive Super Bowl of all time. This season, the two No. 1 seeds will again play for all the marbles; lets hope the title game isnt over after one snap. Begin Slideshow from Bleacher Report - Front Page ift.tt/1CFiW95 ift.tt/eA8V8J
