Super Bowl 60 sneak peek

The Seattle Seahawks have impressed throughout the NFL season and have the quality to secure a Super Bowl success in Santa Clara, California, tonight by beating the resurgent New England Patriots.

Backing favourites has actually been costly in current Super Bowls, with the last 5 big-game underdogs all covering the handicap, as the Los Angeles Rams, in 2022, were the only favourites to lift the Vince Lombardi Trophy because time.

The Seahawks have actually grown much better and better in their first 2 seasons under head coach Mike Macdonald, though, and they have plenty opting for them as they bid to get revenge for their heartbreaking 2015 Super Bowl defeat by the Patriots in Arizona.

The team from the city that is home to Amazon, Microsoft and Starbucks have been perky all season, with their three losses all coming over four or less points and even that most significant defeat remained in Week One.

The Seahawks have emerged from what was undoubtedly the greatest department in the NFL this season as they, the Rams and the 49ers all had 12 or more wins in the NFC West and the divisional tally of 41 wins was three more than any other area.

They lost their very first meeting with high-class competitors the Rams, 21-19 in Week 11, but won both subsequent conferences with Sean McVay's men, going a long way to clinching the NFC's front runner with their wild 38-37 home win in Week 16 and seeing them off again in the NFC National championship, this time by 31-27.

The Seahawks had squashed the 49ers 41-6 in their first playoff outing and now they have the possibility to rub salt in the wounds by winning the prize on their divisional competitors' home field.

Quarterback Sam Darnold has actually impressed in his very first season as Seahawks quarterback, throwing for 346 lawns and three goals under tremendous pressure versus the Rams two weeks earlier, while pass receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba won the NFL Offensive Player of the Year award on Thursday night after leading the league in getting backyards in the regular season with 1,793.

Running back Kenneth Walker III has actually revealed he can bring the load of the hurrying attack given that backfield partner Zach Charbonnet was hurt in their very first championship game, scoring four post-season goals up until now.

The strength of the Seahawks remains their defence, for whom Macdonald calls the plays himself having excelled in his previous job as the Ravens' protective organizer. Seattle conceded the fewest points of any team in the routine season and besides their two current conferences with the respected Rams, they have actually yielded no greater than 16 points in their last eight video games.

Pats may fall short after defying the odds

The Patriots are a familiar name in the Super Bowl after appearing in nine (6 wins and three losses) in between 2002 and 2019. Head coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady have gone now, however their former linebacker Mike Vrabel, who was a Patriots gamer for three of their wins, has actually now led the team back to the huge video game way ahead of schedule in his first season as head coach.

The Pats went 4-13 under Jerod Mayo last season, however their ruthless decision to fire him after just one season has actually been rewarded.

The Patriots' form this season has an unsteady appearance to it as they played just three video games against groups who ended the season with winning records, and they lost two of those against the Bills and the Steelers.

They have actually delighted in more good fortune in the playoffs, where they have season off a Chargers group with a terrible offensive line, a talented Houston side who killed themselves with offending mistakes and a Broncos group who were forced to begin their back-up QB who had actually not thrown a pass in a game all season.

They can just beat what is put in front of them, but there is no rejecting that a more powerful group will remain in front of them in Santa Clara.

The Patriots will want to force turnovers and grind out lawns with running backs Rhamondre Stevenson and quick novice TreVeyon Henderson but that will not be simple versus a Seattle run defence that ranked third in the league in rushing lawns allowed per video game, and their death game, regardless of the remarkable performances of second-season quarterback Drake Maye, must not terrify a Seattle defence that has just had to deal with the Rams offence.

The underdogs have actually had their day in recent Super Bowls however the favourites must have a jolly time this year and the Seahawks might pull clear to cover the handicap.
