SANTA CLARA, California — The Seattle Seahawks have won the franchise’s second Super Bowl, and defense was the driving force behind this championship.
Devon Witherspoon, Derick Hall, Byron Murph,y and the rest of Mike Macdonald’s ferocious unit pummeled Drake Maye in Seattle’s 29-13 win on Sunday at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
Sam Darnold tossed a touchdown pass to AJ Barner, Kenneth Walker III ran for 135 yards, and Jason Myers made all five of his field-goal tries.
Seattle’s “Dark Side” defense helped Darnold become the first quarterback in the 2018 draft class to win a Super Bowl.
The Patriots punted on the first eight drives, excluding a kneel-down to end the first half.
Mack Hollins led the Patriots with 78 receiving yards. Maye threw for 295 yards and tossed two touchdowns, but was also intercepted twice and sacked a bunch. Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson combined for just 42 rushing yards.
