Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll has revealed that he cried two days after the team's 28-24 loss at Super Bowl XLIX to the New England Patriots.
Carroll conceded that he broke down crying in bed on Tuesday morning thinking back on the game as the Seahawks were denied back-to-back championships.
"There was a break where I allowed all of the rush of it to hit, and really in essence just sharing the energy of what everyone else is feeling," Carroll said during an appearance on NBC's Today.
The Seahawks coach insisted that prior to that, all his focus had been on helping his players and coaches through the struggle of dealing with the defeat.
However, Carroll insisted that with the disappointment behind him, the focus will now switch to competing for another championship next season.
