In a dominant performance on Sunday night, the Seattle Seahawks defeated the New England Patriots 29-13 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, to capture Super Bowl 60 and claim the franchise’s second Lombardi Trophy.
The Seahawks entered the game as clear favorites and lived up to the billing, controlling both sides of the ball throughout the contest. Seattle’s defense—among the league’s stingiest all season—set the tone early, forcing three turnovers and keeping the Patriots off the scoreboard until the fourth quarter.
The Seahawks’ last championship came in 2014 (Super Bowl 48), when they routed the Denver Broncos 43-8 in what remains one of the most lopsided Super Bowl victories in history. Twelve years later, Seattle has added another title to its legacy.
Running back Kenneth Walker III was named Super Bowl MVP, becoming the first running back to earn the award since Terrell Davis of the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl 32 (1998). Walker delivered a standout performance, rushing for 135 yards on the ground while providing a consistent spark for the offense.
“It’s just a dream come true because a lot of people play their whole career and never make it this far,” Walker said in his post-game interview. “We went through adversity throughout the season, but we stayed together. You know that adversity showed who we were as a team. We got a brotherhood going on right now, and it’s special.”
Special teams also played a pivotal role in the victory. Kicker Jason Myers connected on a Super Bowl-record five field goals, delivering one of the most prolific kicking performances in championship game history and helping Seattle maintain control throughout.
Head coach Mike Macdonald, in his second season leading the team, praised the unity and resilience that carried the Seahawks to the title.
“We never waver, man. We believe in each other. We love each other, and now we’re world champions,” Macdonald said after the game.
The Patriots, despite a late surge in the fourth quarter, were unable to overcome Seattle’s defensive pressure and balanced attack. The Seahawks’ ability to win the turnover battle and limit explosive plays proved decisive in the 16-point victory.
With the win, Seattle joins an elite group of franchises with multiple Super Bowl titles, further cementing the Pacific Northwest city’s place in NFL history.
The Seahawks now begin their championship parade and offseason celebrations as the 2025–26 season champions, with eyes already turning toward defending the title in 2027.
Congratulations to the Seattle Seahawks—world champions! 🏈🏆
