Hosts Brad Fowler and Alex Higdon recap Super Bowl LX between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots, delivering full game analysis of how Seattle’s dominant defense, pass rush, and field-position control secured the championship.
In this Seahawks vs Patriots Super Bowl breakdown, we dive into Mike Macdonald’s aggressive defensive adjustments, including the six-play blitz stretch and heavy five-man fronts that caught New England off guard. Brad and Alex analyze how Seattle’s pass rush disrupted Drake Maye, why Josh McDaniels’ lack of in-game adjustments proved costly, and how too much straight drop-back passing played directly into the Seahawks’ strengths.
The episode also examines Sam Darnold’s performance beyond the headlines — from turnover-worthy plays to his ability to escape multiple near-sacks — and why the Seahawks’ red-zone struggles kept the Patriots hanging around until the fourth quarter.
Plus, we evaluate concerns about Will Campbell at left tackle after a rough rookie season and Super Bowl performance, and how rookies like Armand Membou and Kelvin Banks compared this season.
Special teams and hidden yardage were major themes, as Seattle won the field-position battle with elite punting, mistake-free kicking, and zero turnovers. We also break down Cooper Kupp’s impact beyond the stat sheet, including his critical blocking in the run game that helped spring Kenneth Walker on the edge.
Plus, Brad breaks down picks 13–32 of his NFL Mock Draft 1.0.
