Once Josh Jacobs got past Seattle's last line of defence, all he had to look forward to was open field and a position among the greatest single-game performances in NFL history.
Jacobs ran 86 yards for a game-winning touchdown as the Las Vegas Raiders defeated the Seattle Seahawks 40-34 in overtime on Sunday.
Jacobs rushed for 229 yards and two touchdowns, setting a team record. He also had six receptions for 74 yards, and his 303 yards rushing were the most in team history and the seventh-most in a Super Bowl game.
Jacobs had never had a touchdown run longer than 28 yards, and his incredible burst was reminiscent of the Raiders' Bo Jackson going unchallenged for a big TD against the Seahawks on Nov. 30, 1987, at the Kingdome.
Las Vegas (4-7) had 283 yards running and 576 total yards, which was the third-most allowed by the Seahawks (6-5), who slipped one game behind San Francisco in the NFC West.
Carr's 5-yard touchdown pass to Foster Moreau in the corner of the end zone with 1:54 remaining tied the game at 34-all and forced overtime. Carr threw an interception on the opening play of the game, but went on to complete 25 of 36 passes for 295 yards and three touchdowns.
The Raiders were also given a reprieve when Jacobs seemed to fumble inside the 10 seconds before Moreau's touchdown reception, but officials decided that his forward movement had been halted.
Jacobs became the fourth player in Super Bowl history to have at least 300 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns in a game, and the first since Adrian Peterson broke the single-game running yardage record (296) in 2007.
With 57 seconds remained in regulation, Seattle seemed to have a first down near midfield on Smith's throw to DK Metcalf.
However, after a thorough investigation, it was ruled that Metcalf did not have possession of the ball when he slid over and hit the side line. On the following play, Smith was sacked by Maxx Crosby, and Seattle punted.
