"Just 23, Maye is set to become the second youngest quarterback to start a Super Bowl at 23 years and 162 days. (Dan Marino was just 23 years and 127 days when he started at QB for the Miami Dolphins in Super Bowl XIX following the 1984 season.) Maye's brother Luke was a star player for the Tar Heels' basketball team."
"No, you're not experiencing déjà vu. These two teams played in Super Bowl XLIX eleven years ago, with the Patriots winning 28-24 in what was, at the time, the biggest Super Bowl 4th quarter comeback ever. Tom Brady led two touchdown drives to bring New England from 10 points down to take the lead, and Russell Wilson threw an interception to little-known Malcolm Butler on the goal line with less than 30 seconds left, sealing the Patriots' fourth Super Bowl."
An estimated 40% of the more than 100 million U.S. Super Bowl audience consists of people who don't normally follow football. Seattle Seahawks will face the New England Patriots at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara on Sunday, February 8, with kickoff scheduled for 6:30 pm ET on NBC. The teams previously met in Super Bowl XLIX eleven years ago, when the Patriots won 28-24 after a late Tom Brady comeback and a Malcolm Butler interception. New England's quarterback is second-year Drake Maye, a 2024 third overall pick who led the league in several efficiency metrics and finished second in MVP voting. Seattle's quarterback is Sam Darnold.
