Seahawks win Super Bowl LX after dominant defensive performance against Patriots

Jon Bon Jovi and Jay-Z said their hellos on the field ahead of the Super Bowl LX.

The Seattle Seahawks’ dominant defense led the way to a Super Bowl LX victory over the New England Patriots, 29-13, on Sunday night.

It’s the first time since 2013 that the Seahawks have won the Super Bowl, and it is some revenge for how the 2014 season ended with Patriots hero Malcolm Butler’s famous interception at the goal line to halt Seattle’s chances at back-to-back Lombardi Trophies.

This wasn’t an offensive shootout in this game, but rather a stellar defensive battle for both teams. But it was the Seahawks' defense that had constant pressure and disruption throughout, as well as the necessary turnovers crucial to winning a Super Bowl.

The Seahawks had a good start on the opening drive of the game, as Jason Myers kicked through a 33-yard field goal to start the scoring.

But it got slow in that department from there. 

Drake Maye and the Patriots couldn’t get anything going against Seattle, the NFL’s top defense this season, punting on all five of their first-half drives until Maye kneeled out the remaining seconds in the second quarter.

Myers was able to kick through two more field goals for the Seahawks, as Sam Darnold and the offense were unable to find pay dirt. At this rate, though, a 9-0 first-half lead felt bigger because of how the Patriots’ offense was struggling.
