Seattle's Mike Macdonald became the third-youngest (38) head coach to win the Super Bowl. The Seahawks also became the first team in history to not commit a single turnover during their Super Bowl run through the playoffs.
They became the 17th franchise to win multiple Super Bowls.
Quarterback Sam Darnold became the first quarterback of the widely popular 2018 NFL Draft class (Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Baker Mayfield) to win the Super Bowl.
He finished the win with 202 passing yards and one touchdown on 19-of-38 passing.
Running back Kenneth Walker III led all backs with 135 rushing yards on 27 carries, also recording 26 receiving yards on a couple of receptions.
New England's Drake Maye threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns on 27-of-43 passing, also leading all Patriots rushers with 37 yards, and committed three turnovers.
First half highlights
It was all defence in the first half as the Seahawks held the Patriots to just four first downs and 51 total yards - the third fewest in a half in Super Bowl history. They punted on all five of their offensive drives, with four of those not going for more than 15 yards.
On the other side, outside of Walker III putting 94 rushing yards on 14 carries, Seattle was held to 88 yards passing and 10 first downs.
Walker's biggest runs came at the start of the second quarter, which originally had the Seahawks sitting in good field position.
But neither team could find the endzone as Seahawks kicker Jason Myers put up the only points of the half with three field goals (41, 39, 33).
Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez had two crucial pass break ups that prevented possible touchdowns to make sure the score stayed at 9-0 heading into the half, with the first coming on a deep shot from Darnold.
In what could be considered the savior of the first half for the Pats, Gonzalez came through in the clutch to keep them in the game.
The second came on a post to the endzone that would've put the Seahawks up to a possible 13-0.
Second half highlights
New England punted the ball eight times on their first nine offensive drives, the odd one being a knee to end the first half.
Myers would hit his fourth field goal (41 yards) of the game to give the Seahawks a 12-0 lead. He became the first person in NFL history to record 200+ in a season (playoffs included).
Right before the end of the third quarter, the Seahawks strip-sacked Maye to force the first turnover of the game.
It was the 20th time Maye had been sacked during these playoffs, surpassing Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow for the most ever in NFL history.
The first touchdown of the game finally came at the start of the fourth quarter following the turnover.
Darnold hit tight end AJ Barner for a 16-yard touchdown to put the Seahawks up to a commanding 19-0 lead.
With just 12:17 left in the game, New England had final found pay dirt.
Maye connected with wide receiver Mack Hollins for a 35-yard touchdown pass to cut the lead to 19-7 shortly after getting just their seventh first down of the game.
After getting the ball back, the Patriots' offence started to gain momentum. That was, until, the Seahawks forced the second turnover of the game.
Maye threw an interception on a deep throw down the field intended for Kyle Williams. Seattle defensive back Julian Love was the one who came down with the pick.
Myers would hit his fifth field goal of the season - another Super Bowl record - to make it 22-7 with 5:35 left in the game, officially putting it out of reach.
The chaos just continued to flood the Patriots' offence after Maye was strip-sacked by Devon Witherspoon for the second time of the game, his third turnover.
Seahawks' Uchenna Nwosu recovered the ball and returned it for a touchdown to make it 29-7.
With not much time left in the game, the Patriots continued to show fight.
Maye connected with running back Rhamondre Stevenson for a seven-yard touchdown pass, but failed to convert the two-point attempt shortly after, cutting the lead to 29-13.
But that was all she wrote from Super Bowl LX as the Seahawks were crowned champions!
