"SANTA CLARA Add a Super Bowl victory to the Seattle Seahawks' treasure chest of accomplishments at Levi's Stadium, home of the rival 49ers. The Seahawks held the New England Patriots scoreless into the fourth quarter and ultimately prevailed 29-13 before a crowd of 70,823 in the stadium's second Super Bowl since it opened in 2014. This win came with greater stakes than any of Seattle's other eight wins at Levi's Stadium, including a win in the Jan. 3 regular-season finale"
"The Seahawks' defense that suffocated the 49ers in that Week 18 showdown, as well as in a 41-6 divisional-playoff rout Jan. 17 in Seattle, was on full display Sunday night. The bulk of the Seahawks' points came from Jason Myers' Super Bowl-record five field goals. But the final touchdown, appropriately, came from Seattle's defense: Uchenna Nwosu returned a Drake Maye interception 45 yards for a touchdown with 4:17 remaining, once blitzing cornerback Riq Woolen hit Maye's arm as the Patriots' quarterback retreated from the midfield"
