Super Bowl LX: Seahawks Defeat Patriots 29-13

In a commanding performance on football's biggest stage, the Seattle Seahawks secured their second Super Bowl title by defeating the New England Patriots29–13 in Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. Seattle’s balanced attack and stifling defense set the tone throughout the game, shutting down a Patriots offense that had been one of the NFL’s most thrilling stories this season.

Defensive Masterclass Seals the Championship

The Seahawks’ defense was the defining factor of the night. Seattle’s front line consistently pressured Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, hitting him multiple times and forcing turnovers that kept New England off balance for much of the contest. Seattle led comfortably for most of the game, keeping New England scoreless through three quarters before the Patriots managed to find the end zone late.

Walker Shines, Myers Sets Record

Kenneth Walker III, the Seahawks’ breakout running back, was named Super Bowl MVP after a powerful rushing performance that helped control the clock and energize Seattle’s offense.

Meanwhile, kicker Jason Myers etched his name into the record books by converting five field goals — the most ever in a Super Bowl — showcasing the Seahawks' relentless drive to put points on the board.

Patriots’ Resurgence Falls Short

For the Patriots, the trip to Super Bowl LX marked a major resurgence after a dramatic turnaround season. Led by young quarterback Drake Maye and head coach Mike Vrabel, New England reached its first Super Bowl in years, seeking a record-tying seventh championship. Despite flashes of offensive success late in the game, the Patriots were unable to keep pace with Seattle’s balanced attack and elite defensive pressure.

Halftime Spectacle Features Bad Bunny

Beyond the gridiron action, Super Bowl LX delivered one of the most talked-about halftime shows in recent memory. Global music star Bad Bunny headlined the Apple Music Halftime Show, bringing Latin music and culture to the Super Bowl stage with guest appearances from icons like Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.

Legacy and Look Ahead

The Seahawks’ victory not only gives Seattle its second Lombardi Trophy but also avenges their dramatic loss to the Patriots in Super Bowl XLIX over a decade ago. As the NFL season wraps, the 2026 Super Bowl will be remembered for Seattle’s relentless defense, special-teams excellence, and a memorable halftime performance — elements that combined to make Super Bowl LX a spectacle befitting America’s biggest sporting event.
