Best Answer

The Seahawks had only 1 timeout left with very few time left on second down. Pete Carroll wanted to have as many chances as possible to score a touchdown. In addition, he did not think that Malcolm Butler who was a rookie and did not have a single pick in his career would be able to intercept the ball, especially at the one yard line.
