Watch NFL Super Bowl XLIX Champions New England Patriots

As the culmination of the NFL season, the Super Bowl is always one of the most exciting sporting events of the year. For the New England Patriots, the 2014-2015 season was a rollercoaster ride filled with ups and downs. They started strong, winning seven of their first eight games, but then lost four of their next six. However, they rallied towards the end of the season, winning their final four games and securing a playoff spot.

The Patriots' first playoff game was against their AFC East rivals, the Baltimore Ravens. It was a hard-fought match, but the Patriots were able to come out on top, 35-31. This set up a showdown with the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC Championship game. The Patriots dominated the Colts from start to finish, winning 45-7.

This victory set them up for a Super Bowl matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, who were the reigning champions and had been one of the top teams in the league all season. The Seahawks had a dominant defense and a dynamic offense led by quarterback Russell Wilson and running back Marshawn Lynch.

The game started off as a tight defensive battle, with neither team able to score in the first quarter. However, the Patriots were able to break through in the second quarter, with Tom Brady throwing a touchdown pass to Brandon LaFell. The Seahawks responded with a touchdown of their own just before halftime, tying the game at 7-7.

The third quarter saw both teams trade blows, with the Patriots taking a 14-7 lead on a touchdown pass to Rob Gronkowski and the Seahawks tying it up again with a touchdown pass from Wilson to Chris Matthews. The fourth quarter was a heart-stopping affair, with both teams making big plays on offense and defense.

With just over two minutes left in the game, the Seahawks had the ball and were driving down the field. However, on second down from the Patriots' one-yard line, Wilson threw a pass that was intercepted by rookie cornerback Malcolm Butler, sealing the victory for the Patriots.

The win was the fourth Super Bowl victory for Tom Brady and head coach Bill Belichick, cementing their legacy as one of the greatest quarterback-head coach duos in NFL history. Gronkowski, who had missed the previous Super Bowl due to injury, was a key player in the victory, catching six passes for 68 yards and a touchdown.

The victory was also a bit of redemption for the Patriots, who had been embroiled in a controversy earlier in the season over allegations that they had deflated footballs in the AFC Championship game against the Colts. Although the league ultimately cleared the Patriots of any wrongdoing, the controversy had cast a shadow over their season.

Despite the challenges they faced, the Patriots were able to come together as a team and bring home the Lombardi Trophy. It was a thrilling end to an exciting season, and a reminder that in the NFL, anything can happen.
