According to two separate analyses by NASA and NOAA, 2014 was determined to be the hottest year on record. That doesn't mean that dozens of other media outlets haven't tried to rephrase the conclusion and plant a seed of doubt. To be certain, NASA and NOAA have concluded, unequivocally, that 2014 was definitely the hottest year on record.

I don't see a maybe.The year 2014 ranks as Earth’s warmest since 1880, according to two separate analyses by NASA and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) scientists.
The 10 warmest years in the instrumental record, with the exception of 1998, have now occurred since 2000. This trend continues a long-term warming of the planet, according to an analysis of surface temperature measurements by scientists at NASA’s Goddard Institute of Space Studies (GISS) in New York.
In an independent analysis of the raw data, also released Friday, NOAA scientists also found 2014 to be the warmest on record.
