#3 - Super Bowl XLIX
The Seattle Seahawks led the New England Patriots by 10 points with less than ten minutes remaining in Super Bowl XLIX. Tom Brady put together two clutch drives in the fourth quarter, both of which ended in touchdown passes. They were his third and fourth touchdown passes of the game against the famous Legion of Boom defense.
The most memorable play of the game came after that on the Seahawks' final drive of the game. They marched all the way down the field on a potential game-winning drive before Malcolm Butler intercepted Russell Wilson in the endzone to seal the victory. Tom Brady erased a double-digit deficit in the fourth quarter to set up the game-winning interception.
