"Devon Witherspoon, Derick Hall, Byron Murphy and the rest of Mike Macdonald's ferocious unit pummeled Drake Maye, and the Seattle Seahawks beat the New England Patriots 29-13 on Sunday to win the franchise's second Super Bowl. Sam Darnold threw a touchdown pass to AJ Barner, Kenneth Walker III ran for 135 yards and Jason Myers set a super Bowl record by making all five of his field-goal tries."
"The Seahawks sacked Maye six times, including two apiece by Hall and Murphy. Hall's strip-sack late in the third quarter set up a short field and Darnold connected with Barner on 16-yard scoring toss to make it 19-0. Julian Love's interception set up another field goal that made it 22-7 with 5:35 left. The Patriots (17-4) punted on the first eight drives, excluding a kneel-down to end the first half."
Seattle's defense dominated the game, forcing turnovers and limiting New England to 13 points while the Seahawks scored 29. Key defensive plays included Devon Witherspoon's disruption, Uchenna Nwosu's 45-yard pick-six, and six sacks on Drake Maye by a unit led by Derick Hall and Byron Murphy. Sam Darnold managed the offense with a 19-of-38 passing performance for 202 yards and a touchdown to AJ Barner. Kenneth Walker III rushed for 135 yards. Jason Myers converted all five field-goal attempts, setting a Super Bowl record. The Patriots struggled early, punting on eight of their first drives.
