The big game is over, and wow—what a defensive masterclass from the Seattle Seahawks! On February 8, 2026, at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, the Seahawks took down the New England Patriots 29-13 to lift the Lombardi Trophy for the second time in franchise history. This wasn't the high-scoring shootout some expected; it was a gritty, low-scoring battle where Seattle's "Dark Side" defense stole the show.
The Seahawks jumped out to an early lead with field goals and never looked back. They held the Patriots scoreless through the first three quarters, sacking quarterback Drake Maye six times and forcing three turnovers that led to easy points. Seattle's running back Kenneth Walker III was unstoppable on the ground, rushing for 135 yards and earning Super Bowl MVP honors. His explosive runs opened things up, and the defense made sure New England couldn't mount any real comeback until garbage time in the fourth.
