"It's too early to tell how many viewers NBC lost during the course of Super Bowl 60, but I can tell you in my house the exodus started after the Bad Bunny halftime show. Brother-in-law and sister-in-law left at that point and it was only a nine-point margin. Father-in-law and mother-in-law were out the door by the end of the third quarter. The wife? She bailed for Everybody Loves Raymond reruns not long afterward. Meanwhile, I stayed in my office, watching from beginning to end."
"Five field goals by Jason Myers, a 16-yard touchdown pass from Sam Darnold to A.J. Barner and a 45-yard interception return by Uchenna Nwosu for Seattle. A 35-yard touchdown pass from a previously bewildered Drake Maye to Mack Hollins early in the fourth quarter made it 19-7. Seattle sacked Maye six times and forced two turnovers. The Seahawks weren't going to lose unless they turned the ball over, and while it wasn't the greatest day for Darnold, he came through in that respect."
Many viewers left the Super Bowl broadcast during and after the Bad Bunny halftime show, with several family members abandoning the game for other programming. The Seattle Seahawks won 29-13 over the New England Patriots at Levi's Stadium through strong defensive play. Jason Myers contributed five field goals, Sam Darnold connected with A.J. Barner for a 16-yard touchdown, and Uchenna Nwosu returned an interception 45 yards for a touchdown. Drake Maye threw a 35-yard touchdown to Mack Hollins but was sacked six times and lost a fumble that led to Seattle's pivotal score. Penalties were minimal and NBC's production remained professional.
