Marshawn Lynch has been his usual quiet self with the media since the Seahawks lost to the Patriots in Super Bowl 49 but alot of us had the same legit question for beast mode. How did he feel about the Hawks calling a pass play instead of handing him the rock to get one yard and win the game?



@IamJoeSports


Lynch is currently in Turkey with fellow NFL players DeAngelo Williams and Gary Barnidge to promote the game of football. While there, the players sat down for an interview on NTV Spor. That’s when Lynch admitted that he had expected the football with the game on the line.


A Turkish translator is talking over the interview and may make it tough to hear.



Here is the transcript of what Lynch is saying:



To be honest with you, I would be lying if I didn’t tell you that I was expecting the ball. Yes, I was expecting the ball. But in life, these things happen. Like I told a reporter after the game, it’s a team sport.


I had no problem with the decision of the playcalling. I mean, you know … I think it was more of a … how do I say this? When you look at me, and you let me run that ball in … I am the face of the nation. You know, MVP of the Super Bowl … that’s pretty much the face of the nation at that point of time. I don’t know what went into that call. I mean, maybe it was a good thing that I didn’t get the ball. I mean, you know, it cost us the Super Bowl. I mean, I have full … I have full confidence in my teammates to execute that plan because we’ve done it so many more times. But would I love to had the ball in? Yes, I would have.


But the game is over, and I am in Turkey.



Lynch is pretty much throwing jabs the entire time, but also being respectful. End of the day he is just being honest, but its interesting to hear he feels there could be more behind him not getting the ball. Lynch is still unsigned for next year and you have to wonder about the relationship if he thinks those things.
