"The matchup features two stingy defenses, two balanced offenses and two quarterbacks who've taken vastly different routes to get here. Led by defensive tackle Leonard Williams, linebacker Ernest Jones, cornerback Devon Witherspoon and rookie safety Nick Emmanwori, the Seahawks allowed the fewest points in the NFL and have standout players at every level. The Patriots advanced to a record 12th Super Bowl because their defense has been dominant in the playoffs, allowing only 8.7 points per game."
"The 23-year-old Maye will be the second-youngest quarterback to start a Super Bowl. He's aiming to become the youngest to win it. The Patriots won six rings with coach Bill Belichick and Tom Brady. AP NFL Coach of the Year Mike Vrabel, who was a linebacker on three of those teams, is seeking his first as a head coach. Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald is only in his second season and first with Darnold, who's on his fifth team in eight years in the NFL."
Super Bowl 60 at Levi's Stadium features the New England Patriots (17-3) versus the Seattle Seattle Seahawks (16-3). The Seahawks allowed the fewest points in the NFL, anchored by Leonard Williams, Ernest Jones, Devon Witherspoon and rookie safety Nick Emmanwori. The Patriots reached a record 12th Super Bowl after a playoff stretch in which their defense allowed 8.7 points per game. Seattle quarterback Sam Darnold has weapons such as Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp and Kenneth Walker. New England's Drake Maye, supported by TreVeyon Henderson, Rhamondre Stevenson and Stefon Diggs, will be the second-youngest Super Bowl starting quarterback. Coaches Mike Macdonald and Mike Vrabel bring contrasting tenures, and the matchup is a rematch of a Super Bowl from 11 years ago.
