Seattle Seahawks Wins 2026 Super Bowl For 2nd time in Franchise History

2026 Super Bowl LX Highlights, as Seattle Seahawks Wins Super Bowl 60 in Santa Clara




The Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl champions for the second time in franchise history following a 29-13 win over the New England Patriots. Neither team’s offense scored a touchdown until two were scored on consecutive possessions to open the fourth quarter – and then only once more.

The Seahawks showed why they ended the regular season with the No. 1 scoring defense in the NFL on Sunday, holding the Patriots scoreless over the first three quarters of action.

Seattle forced three turnovers and sacked Maye six times. On offense, Kenneth Walker III earned Super Bowl MVP honors by rushing for 135 yards on 27 carries. He also caught two passes for 26 yards.


With the Super Bowl 60 victory, Macdonald, 38, becomes the third-youngest NFL head coach to win a Lombardi Trophy. He’s also the fourth ever to win a Super Bowl before his 40th birthday.

The official number for this year's Super Bowl sits at 70,823. That's an increase over the 65,719 who attended in 2025 for Super Bowl 59.

Final score of Super Bowl LX:

Seattle Seahawks 29, New England Patriots 13, as Seattle claimed the NFL championship with a convincing win over New England.



Kenneth Walker III describes Super Bowl victory as 'a dream come true'


Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III shared his thoughts on the victory during a postgame on-field interview.

“Many players spend their entire careers and never reach this stage,” he said, calling the win “a dream come true.”

Q4- 03: 27 

Seahawks 26 yard FG is good.


Seattle 22-7 New England


Patriots face the two-point decision


Trailing 19–7 after the touchdown, New England had a choice: kick the extra point or go for two. Analytics gave them a 5.4% chance to win either way, but the model slightly favored attempting the two-point conversion. They needed a 46.8% chance of success to justify it, and estimates put their probability just above that threshold. In practical terms, either choice was reasonable.

Q4- 06: 27 


Patriots answer with their own touchdown

Drake Maye connected with Mack Hollins on a 35‑yard touchdown pass with 12:27 left in the fourth quarter, a beautiful over‑the‑shoulder grab by Hollins that cut Seattle’s lead to 19–7.

Q4- 13: 20 


Jaxon Smith-Njigba under concussion evaluation

After a few minutes in the injury tent, Jaxon Smith-Njigba returned to the sideline with about three minutes remaining in the third quarter for a concussion assessment, according to the Seahawks. The NFL’s leading receiver and AP Offensive Player of the Year has managed just three catches for 24 yards on nine targets so far



Seahawks defensive line showing its strength


Seattle’s D-line had a clear edge in Super Bowl LX, overpowering a New England O-line that gave up five sacks to Drake Maye in each of the first three playoff games. Byron Murphy II recorded Seattle’s fourth sack, forcing another Patriots punt. Excluding their kneel-down to end the first half, New England has punted on all eight of their possessions so far.

Q3- 01: 10 

Patriots pass up a key fourth-down opportunity


 On their last drive, New England punted on fourth-and-1 from their own 40 with 7:41 remaining in the third quarter—a decision that looks questionable. Down 12 points, they’re now likely to face a much tougher fourth down later in the game.

Punting dropped their win probability from 12.0% to 10.5%. While 1.5% seems small, that’s because their chances were already slim. By analytics, the Patriots needed a 42% conversion chance to justify going for it—but estimates put their actual probability at 67%, even accounting for it being a short one-yard attempt. It was a missed opportunity.


Q3- 05: 10 


Patriots’ defense sticking to “bend but don’t break”


New England’s defensive approach has held steady: bend, but don’t break. Each time the Seahawks have reached scoring range—like on their first drive of the second half—the Patriots have answered with a crucial third-down stop, forcing a field goal. Luck played a part, though, as cornerback Carlton Davis slipped, but Sam Darnold’s throw sailed just out of Cooper Kupp’s reach along the right sideline.

Sam Darnold turns dual-threat into action, scrambling effectively to pick up the first down.

Another pass breakup by Gonzo keeps Patriots alive


Christian Gonzalez strikes again. In a game where New England’s offense has struggled, the third-year cornerback is helping keep them in it, recording another diving pass breakup late in the second quarter. Gonzalez, along with rookie safety Craig Woodson, have arguably been the Patriots’ two standout players in the first half.


Jason Myers extends the lead with another field goal


Myers drills another three points, pushing Seattle further ahead.


2Q 00.23: Darnold throws to Kupp, 


Darnold throws to Kupp, but the Seattle WR struggles to keep the ball in his hands before it drops to the ground. Replay angles are quite conflicting but the ruling on the field is an incomplete pass.



Cooper Kupp getting cheers at Levi’s Stadium

A sizable contingent of Seahawks fans at Levi’s Stadium erupted with chants of “Coooooop” every time Cooper Kupp touched the ball, just like they do in Seattle. The veteran receiver and Super Bowl LVI MVP has three catches for 37 yards so far.



First penalty of Super Bowl LX


With 3:09 left in the second quarter, referee Shawn Smith’s crew issued the game’s first flag. Patriots left tackle Will Campbell jumped early before the snap, drawing a false start.



Seahawks special teams stepping up


Seattle ranked first in special teams this season according to ESPN Analytics, and Michael Dickson is a big reason why. The Seahawks’ Australian punter dropped a beauty, pinning the Patriots at their own 2-yard line to start their fifth possession.


Morgan Moses rallies Patriots offense after latest drive


Patriots tackle Morgan Moses, a 12-year veteran, pulled the New England offense together on the sideline after Drake Maye was sacked for the third time, trying to settle the group following another empty possession.

According to ESPN Research, the Seahawks are 12–0 this season when recording multiple sacks in a game. The Patriots have managed just 2.1 yards per play and only three first downs midway through the second quarter.

Q2- 03: 30 


Seattle 6 Patriots nil 5:05 2Q.

Big time stop here. Think this is one of those crucial drives where the time of possession bigger than points. #SuperBowlLX    Sam Darnold is starting to move in the pocket. That’s what Drake Maye will have to do extent plays Josh McDaniels scheme

Q2- 04: 00 

SEAHAWKS DEFENSE ROLLING


Perfect timing for a first career sack.

Seahawks 2025 fifth-round pick Rylie Mills dropped Patriots quarterback Drake Maye on third down, and New England was forced to punt two plays later.

It marked the rookie defensive tackle’s first sack in the NFL.

Seattle’s defense has been in complete control so far.

FIELD GOAL: Seahawks settle for three again


Seattle’s offense once more stalled in the red zone and had to settle for points from a field goal.

Jason Myers drilled a 39-yard kick.

Seattle leads 6–0 over New England with 11:16 left in the second quarter.



PATRIOTS DODGE A BULLET

Drake Maye fired a pass to tight end Hunter Henry, who couldn’t hang on. The ball popped up and landed in the hands of a Seahawks defender, but he failed to secure the interception.

New England still went three-and-out and was forced to punt, though it was a routine kick.

Seattle takes over possession at its own 41-yard line.


Q2- 11: 42
 



End of first quarter: Seahawks 3, Patriots 0


Jason Myers accounted for the only points of Super Bowl LX, drilling a 33-yard field goal to give Seattle a 3–0 lead after one quarter.

New England surrendered an early drive but stiffened in the red zone, holding the Seahawks to three as Myers converted the kick to open the scoring.

Q1- 


Darnold just misses JSN, Seahawks forced to punt


Seattle nearly hit on a huge play on third down of its second possession, with Jaxon Smith-Njigba breaking wide open down the sideline. Under pressure, Sam Darnold overthrew him, missing what looked like a sure touchdown and sending the Seahawks to a punt.

Q1- 01: 30 



Seahawks support stands out early at Super Bowl LX

The crowd energy leans strongly toward Seattle, with Seahawks fans especially loud when New England has the ball.

Q1-  04: 00 



Patriots go three-and-out on opening possession


Seattle’s defense forced a punt on New England’s first drive. Derick Hall, who recorded two sacks during the regular season, dropped Drake Maye for a 10-yard loss. On third down, Mike Macdonald dialed up a blitz with Devon Witherspoon, who pressured Maye into throwing the ball away. — Brady Henderson


Q1-  06: 00 


Seahawks march downfield, but come away with three


Seattle moved the ball 51 yards on seven plays to open the game, but the drive bogged down inside the red zone.

A Sam Darnold throw intended for Rashid Shaheed fell incomplete on third-and-7, so the Seahawks settled for a 33-yard Jason Myers field goal to take a 3–0 lead.

Now it’s Drake Maye’s turn against the tough Seahawks defense.

Super Bowl LX Coin Revealed


The official coin for the Super Bowl LX (60) coin toss is a special silver medal called the Libertas Americana—a modern restrike of the iconic 1782–1783 medal originally commissioned by Benjamin Franklin to celebrate America's victory in the Revolutionary War and independence.This choice ties into the U.S. 250th anniversary (America250) celebrations.









The medal features Lady Liberty on one side (with flowing hair and the date "4 Juil 1776") and has been customized for the event: engraved with "HEADS" and "TAILS" on respective sides, plus the NFL shield. It's about the size of a silver dollar, made of silver (with modifications by the Highland Mint in Florida).After the toss, this unique piece will be donated to the Smithsonian's National Numismatic Collection at the National Museum of American History.

Welcome to the Bay: What’s in store?


San Francisco, known as "The City," is a true cultural crossroads. From Japantown to the African American Arts District and the vibrant Filipino communities throughout the East Bay, more than 800,000 residents have deeply woven their traditions and identities into the fabric of the area in visible, meaningful ways.You’ll notice a touch of East Coast sharpness in the fast-paced energy of "The City," yet it’s softened by that unmistakable California laid-back feel.



















Super Bowl Halftime Show: Are Performers Paid?


Super Bowl halftime headliners are not paid a real salary—they only get a small union scale fee (usually a few hundred to ~$1,000 total for rehearsals + show).The NFL covers all production costs (often $10M+), but the artists perform basically for free. The real value is the massive exposure: 100–250 million viewers live, plus streaming and replays, which boosts streams, sales, and careers.NFL exec Jon Barker says artists still see it as “one of the most important stages in live entertainment,” and the feedback from performers year after year confirms it remains highly desirable.




Setlist Predictions


The official setlist is a secret until showtime, but based on recent performances, hits, and his Grammy-winning album, expect a high-energy mix of reggaeton, trap, and Puerto Rican pride tracks. Likely inclusions:


"Tití Me Preguntó"

"Me Porto Bonito"

"DÁKITI"

"Ojitos Lindos"

"Callaita"

"El Apagón" (protest anthem vibe)

"BAILE INoLVIDABLE" (from teaser clip)

"EoO" (recent Grammy winner)

Tracks from Debí Tirar Más Fotos like "Nuevayol" or "Lo Que Le Pasó a Hawaii"

Classics like "Moscow Mule" or "La Santa"


The show promises a massive party with infectious beats—danceable even if you don't speak Spanish.


Surprise Guests & Speculation


Bad Bunny has stayed coy ("I don't know why you asked that"), with no confirmed guests. Rumors swirl around:Cardi B (strong possibility; she's at the game supporting partner Stefon Diggs of the Patriots)

Rauw Alejandro or Jhayco (frequent collaborators)

Shakira or Jennifer Lopez (from 2020 guest spot)

Marc Anthony, Ricky Martin, or Puerto Rican legends like El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico

Young Miko, Ivy Queen, or Tego Calderón for cultural nods


No leaks confirm anyone, but the 13-minute set could include cameos to amp up the celebration.This halftime show is more than music—it's a cultural milestone for Latin artists amid U.S. debates on language and identity. Expect a vibrant, dance-heavy spectacle that could shatter records. Who are you most excited to see (or hear) tonight?  #SuperBowlLX #BadBunny #BenitoBowl
