Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bruce Irvin reveals that he was baffled by the decision of the coaching staff not to run the ball on the goalline in their Super Bowl defeat.

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bruce Irvin has admitted that he could not believe the decision to not hand the ball to Marshawn Lynch on the goalline in his side's Super Bowl defeat.

The Seahawks had the chance to win the match in the dying seconds as they drove to the goalline of the New England Patriots in Glendale.

However, the coaching staff made the choice to throw the ball on the one-yard line which resulted in an interception by Malcolm Butler to hand the Patriots the victory.

"We had it. I don't understand how you don't give it to the best back in the league on not even the one-yard line," Irvin told reporters.

"We were on the half-yard line, and we throw a slant. I don't know what the offense had going on, what they saw. I just don't understand."

Irvin was the first player in history to be ejected from a Super Bowl for fighting in the last 20 seconds of the game.
