The Seahawks defense allowed the fewest points in the NFL this season. They will certainly pose a tough task for the Patriots in Super Bowl 60.

So, what does Drake Maye believe to be the key to success?

“Play our brand of football,” the quarterback said on NBC prior to kickoff. “We know they’re going to be a tough challenge. Just be us, play for each other, go out there and have some fun.”

New England and Seattle finished the 2025 season with identical 14-3 records. Both teams also missed the playoffs last year.

The Patriots defeated the Los Angeles Chargers, Houston Texans and Denver Broncos en route to Super Bowl 60 at Levi’s Stadium. While the Seahawks defense will be one of, if not New England’s toughest task, Maye has proven he can get everyone on the offense involved.

The defense has also shined throughout the playoffs, including intercepting C.J. Stroud four times in the AFC Division game.
