No, that failed 2-pt conversion was the key. If that succeeded, NE could have just kicked the FG and send it to OT with the momentum on their side. But because it failed, a FG on that last drive wouldn’t have done jackshit, so they needed the TD, giving Seattle that extra chance they needed to make that last stand. 

And I think that last Offensive play was more of a Wilson call than a Carroll call.

They literally needed 1yd and they win the game. No overtime needed. How is that play somehow less important?

Because it gave Seattle’s defense a chance to make their last stand and set up that last stop. 

Especially since they already tried that Cam run the first time, so they knew it was coming the 2nd time.
