The Seattle Seahawks took a commanding lead in Super Bowl LX on Sunday, February 8, 2026, after a pivotal turnover in the fourth quarter. The Seahawks ultimately defeated the New England Patriots 29-13 in the championship game.
With the Patriots trailing, they faced a third-and-six situation on their own 44-yard line when quarterback Drake Maye was sacked, resulting in a fumble. The Seahawks defense recovered possession, and on the ensuing drive, Sam Darnold connected with AJ Barner in the end zone for the game’s first touchdown, extending Seattle’s advantage to 19-0.
The Seahawks’ victory marked a dominant performance, earning Kenneth Walker III the Super Bowl LX MVP award. The Patriots, despite a 14-3 regular season record, were unable to overcome the Seahawks’ strong defensive play and offensive execution.
The loss concludes a strong season for the Patriots, who were led by Coach of the Year Mike Vrabel and Assistant Coach of the Year Josh McDaniels. Both coaches received the honors at the NFL Honors event leading up to Super Bowl LX in San Francisco.
Despite the setback, the Patriots saw notable performances throughout the season, including strong showings from players like Stefon Diggs, Rhamondre Stevenson, and Christian Gonzalez. The team finished with a 14-3 record, earning them a spot in the AFC East.
Looking ahead, the NFL schedule for the 2026 season will be released in May. Fans can find the latest news, scores, and information about the New England Patriots on the official Patriots website and NFL.com.
