Super Bowl 2026: The Seattle Seahawks crush the Patriots and take the championship

The Seattle Seahawks defeated the New England Patriots 29-13 to win the Super Bowl for the first time since 2014.

In a decisive Super Bowl showdown held in Santa Clara, California, the Seattle Seahawks emerged victorious over the New England Patriots with a score of 29-13, marking their first championship win since 2014. The Seahawks, coming into the game as favorites, showcased their top-ranked defense, which effectively dismantled the Patriots’ attempts to secure their first Super Bowl title since the departure of quarterback Tom Brady in 2020.

The night proved challenging for the New England Patriots, who were looking to claim their seventh Super Bowl title, an achievement that would have set them apart as the most successful franchise in NFL history, surpassing the Pittsburgh Steelers. Instead, the game turned into a nightmare for the Patriots, whose efforts to rally were thwarted by the Seahawks’ strong defensive play, leading to a significant score gap early in the match. Additionally, Jason Myers, the Seahawks' kicker, broke the Super Bowl record by scoring five field goals, while fellow player Andy Borregales made headlines as the first Venezuelan to participate in an NFL final, marking a significant moment in the game.

Despite a commendable performance from Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, who threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns, the team could not overcome the initial 19-0 deficit. The Seahawks’ victory not only reaffirmed their status in the NFL but also highlighted a shift in team dynamics within the league as they capitalize on strong defensive strategies and talented players in critical game moments.
