Unfortunately for Seattle, the mistake came at the most crucial moment in the biggest game of the year.

Exactly. Maybe it was the BB factor where Carrol felt he had to outsmart him or something, or at least try.
At a time like that, throw strategic nonsense out the window and let your best player be your best player. If they had a run of the mill RB ok. But they have arguably the best in the league. Just hand him the stupid ball and let him do what he does. If he doesn't score, they likely sleep a little more soundly than they did last night.
