What question does Mike Macdonald get asked repeatedly?

Gio 0:00
This is Seahawks head coach Mike McDonald asked about Super Bowl XLIX about a million times during his media session. Of course, the goal line play from the first Patriots-Seahawks Super Bowl with Malcolm Butler and the interception. So it started out all in good fun.
Unknown 0:13
Let me lay it out for you here. End of the fourth quarter, 30 seconds left. You guys are trailing.

What was the controversial play in Super Bowl XLIX?

Unknown 0:18
You're on the one-yard line. Are you throwing it or are you running it? Best play available.
Gio 0:23
All right. So he was ready for it the first time. Then here it comes again. People are so uninformed. Yes. It's unbelievable. And unoriginal. Here you go.
Mike McDonald 0:29
It's the fourth quarter.

What are the implications of running or passing on the one-yard line?

Mike McDonald 0:30
26 seconds left. The second goal on the one. You're down by four. Are you going to run the football or are you going to throw it?
Marshawn Lynch 0:36
beast mode in the backfield call him and get him in uniform and finally hit him within the realm that's within the realm of possibility all right so he's still playing along you know having some fun with it here we go once more on the one yard line with 30 seconds left would you run it or throw a slant i think the more important question is how many times am i going to get this question over the next three days all right so we're starting to run out of patience and then the last straw this comes down to a one-yard line scenario. 20 seconds to go.
Mike McDonald 1:02
Are we running or passing?
Marshawn Lynch 1:04
I don't know.
Boomer Esiason 1:04
I mean, I'm kind of done answering this question. Here's a question for you. Who is the offensive coordinator for Beville? There you go.
Gio 1:12
And by the way, what people... You didn't even let him get the words out.
Boomer Esiason 1:14
Yeah. What I think people forget about that particular play is that New England put their big people in their goal line defense when in the game. And basically Seattle did not have their goal line offense. It didn't have the extra linemen or the extra tight ends in there.

How does Mike Macdonald feel about the repeated question?

Boomer Esiason 1:30
I think they had their 12 personnel in there, which would be two tight ends or running back and two wide receivers. And, you know, they did exactly what they should have done. They got out of a run that was supposed to be run. You wouldn't have gotten anywhere. And they went with a play that, by the way, if you listen to Matt Patricia explain the play, how they were practicing against that play in practice, and he never got it right. Specifically Malcolm Butler. Right. And Malcolm Butler kept going over the top. Yep. In this particular situation, they got it right. And Browner, the other cornerback for the Patriots, had come from Seattle.
Gio 2:07
Yes, and he had the jam at the line that allowed Butler to get where he needed to be.
Boomer Esiason 2:11
Exactly. So they played it absolutely perfectly. And I don't know, if you asked Pete Carroll would he do it over again, I don't think he would. I think he would say we'd still throw it, we'd just have to run better routes and make sure that they didn't make the play and keep them from interceptioning.
Gio 2:26
I believe I saw a clip where Patricia was speaking at, who knows, some convention or college or whatever, breaking down that play.
Boomer Esiason 2:32
Exactly.
Gio 2:33
And he, not only that, but he said, if I were on the other side, I would have called the pass as well, based on the setup of the play, the formations and everything.
Boomer Esiason 2:40
And the personnel that the Patriots had on the field, which was their goal line personnel, which is a completely different set of, you know, set of plays that you run. And hopefully you have your right people against the right people that they have on the field. And the Seahawks did not.
Gio 2:53
Great Super Bowl moment.
Unknown 2:54
Yeah, Marshawn Lynch was on Bill Maher's podcast. Led me right into it. He said he was... May I? What are you going to say? Which one are we going to play?
Gio 3:03
I've got a minute montage of just absolute chaos. Okay. All right. Go for it. All right. Because there's no setup for this out of context unless you want to tee it up a little bit more.
Unknown 3:12
Well, there was just the one part I was going to say where he said he was a crack baby and he thought that gave him superpowers.
Gio 3:16
Okay, that was not included in this montage, so I'm glad you got to that. But why these two are in a room together, I don't know, but it is very entertaining.
