The New England Patriots beat the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XLIX, 28-24.

The win marks the fourth Super Bowl victory for quarterback Tom Brady, who was named the game’s Most Valuable Player after completing 37 of his 50 pass attempts for 328 yards and four touchdowns.
Wide receiver Julian Edelman recorded a game-high nine receptions for 109 yards. He scored the go-ahead touchdown with just over two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.
