    Super Bowl 60 Review

    In this episode of Play Pause Repeat, I review and reanalyze Super Bowl 60 between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks in Santa Clara, California. With the Seahawks cruising to a 29-13 victory, let's look back at the notable plays, decisions, and highlights of the culmination to the 2025 NFL season. Although the game didn't demonstrate the expected tense showdown, Super Bowl 60 still gave us a way to predict future NFL playoff scenarios for both teams. The AFC Champion New England Patriots will need to erase this embarrassing loss in the championship to build around young quarterback Drake Maye, a refurnished Offensive Line, and dominant secondary. Meanwhile, on the other side of the table, the Seattle Seahawks have claimed their Second Lombardi trophy under the leadership of 2nd year coach Mike Macdonald and veteran signal caller Sam Darnold. Now reaching the mountaintop, the Seahawks will seek to run it again with the core of Jaxon Smith Njigba, Sam Darnold, Coooper Kupp, Devon Withersppon, Demarcus Lawrence, and of course Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker IIII and possibly achieve back to back Super Bowls. So sit back, relax, and listen as the National Football League looks onward to the 2026 NFL Draft in April.
