The biggest storyline from the 10 previous Super Bowls

While professor Bill Belichick and Tom Brady have attempted to squash Deflategate-mania, it seems likely that the pseudo-scandal will hang over Super Bowl XLIX as one of the predominant storylines, if not the main story. But there are other intriguing angles: The Seahawks have a chance to become the first team to win back-to-back championships since the Patriots themselves did it 10 years earlier; Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll faces his former team; and the Patriots seek a return to glory after losing Super Bowls XLII and XLVI -- the former one at the site of this year’s showdown at University of Phoenix Stadium. As we looked back and debated what were the biggest pre-game narratives of Super Bowls gone by, there were some close calls, so we mention the runner-ups. Here we go, starting with 10 years ago.
