""It's a one-of-a-kind feeling, bro," Witherspoon said. "You talk about a group of guys who battle every day, who believe in each other and believe in their coach, you can't describe this group no better. It's just a one-of-a-kind feeling. I was just so happy to battle with these guys. We went through a lot, but we believed. All of you all doubters out there who said all that other stuff, you all don't know what's going on in this building.""
"Seattle's "Dark Side" defense helped Darnold become the first quarterback in the 2018 draft class to win a Super Bowl, ahead of Josh Allen, Baker Mayfield and Lamar Jackson. "To do this with this team, I wouldn't want it any other way," Darnold said. "So proud of our guys, our defense. I mean, I can't say enough great things about our defense, our special teams.""
"Labeled a bust, dumped by two teams and considered expendable by two others, Darnold proved his doubters wrong while helping the Seahawks go 17-3. After leading the NFL with 20 turnovers in the regular season, Darnold didn't have any in three playoff games. He wasn't particularly sharp against a solid Patriots defense but protected the ball and made enough plays, finishing 19 of 38 for 202 yar"
Seattle's defense dominated, allowing the Seahawks to beat the New England Patriots 29-13 for the franchise's second Super Bowl. Devon Witherspoon, Derick Hall, Byron Murphy and others pressured and forced turnovers, including a 45-yard pick-six after Witherspoon hit Drake Maye's arm. Kenneth Walker III rushed for 135 yards and won Super Bowl MVP, the first running back to do so since Terrell Davis. Sam Darnold protected the ball, finishing 19 of 38 for 202 yards and avoiding turnovers in three playoff games. Jason Myers converted all five field-goal attempts, setting a Super Bowl record.
