The Broncos conceded a safety on the opening play from scrimmage, giving the Seattle Seahawks a 2-0 lead and the football.
That was the 9th safety in Super Bowl history. It's the 3rd straight Super Bowl with a safety.

The previous record was held by Devin Hester, coming in at 14 seconds. That also came against a Peyton Manning-led team, when Hester returned the opening kick-off back for a touchdown in Super Bowl XLI against the Indianapolis Colts.
