    Seahawks DOMINATE Super Bowl: Best Defensive Performance Ever? Drake Maye Sees Ghosts | Full Recap

    The Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl champions after a COMPLETE defensive domination of the New England Patriots. Peter Klein breaks down every angle of the big game. SEAHAWKS DEFENSE WAS HISTORIC: One of the best defensive performances you'll ever see. Had Drake Maye seeing ghosts—even when there wasn't pressure coming, he felt like he was under it. Completely shut down the run (Stevenson and Henderson getting nothing until garbage time). Mixed things up brilliantly—didn't go Eagles 2024 with zero blitzes, but still getting there with four rushers regularly. That Witherspoon blitz was LETHAL. WILL CAMPBELL WAS A DISASTER: Pretty sure I heard him say on draft night "I'd die for Drake Maye"—but my memory must be off, because clearly he said "I'm going to get Drake Maye killed." Completely dominated all game and all playoffs. So now what? Not a great OT free agent class, five OTs with first-round grades on ESPN's board but no clear solution. He just has to get better. PATRIOTS PLAY CALLING FAILED MAYE: Everyone saw this was a problem all playoffs and all season when tested. How was Plan A "run the offense as normal" and Plan B "hope Plan A works?" Zero creativity, zero movement off his spot, zero threat of a run. When breaking down this game, the one area where NE could give Seattle problems was Maye extending plays with his legs. But they didn't even create the THREAT of a rollout, so Seattle's defense locked in on a statue. They did NOTHING to slow this pass rush. PATRIOTS COACHING HAD A TOUGH DAY: Not going for two (could've made it an 11-point game) was a mistakeDidn't help Maye with creativityDidn't go for it on 4th downAll understandable given how dominant Seattle was—even on 4th and 2 you probably weren't getting itThey were hoping old Sam Darnold would show up and give them life. He never did.MAYE DIDN'T HELP HIMSELF: He could have rolled out and run on his own—he had no leash. He looked overwhelmed. You could see him looking behind him constantly, aware of the rush. His first read seemed to be his left tackle, THEN his progressions. And when he WASN'T under pressure, he missed throws. You can understand being off with everything he was dealing with, but they needed him to be better. BACK TO SEATTLE: Kenneth Walker III was ELECTRIC. Said going in that if he gets going there's no stopping this team—he was fantastic. Patient, explosive, effective all game. That O-line dominated. Love to see him get his moment, especially with Charbonnet injured. Darnold was solid—avoided the back-breaking turnover that could've given NE life. Game managed perfectly, which is exactly what the situation called for. A couple throws just missing from having a monster game. Christian Gonzalez saved a couple of bomb TDs—was the Patriots' best player all game. Kupp was exactly what they needed—calming everything down. With NE taking JSN away, Kupp stepped up with important catches to keep drives moving. OTHER SUPER BOWL NOTES: Bad Bunny halftime show: Didn't know any songs, didn't understand any of it—but SO well produced and just a genuinely fun vibeBroadcast crew CRUSHED IT: Collinsworth was on top of his game and Tirico showed why he's one of the best⏱️ Full Super Bowl breakdown 👍 SUBSCRIBE to Couch Potato Diary for daily sports coverage in This Episode: Intro (0:00) New England Patriots had no answer for Seattle (1:19) Seattle Offence did what they needed to (16:50)Other Super Bowl thoughts (22:14)Outro (27:17)🎧 Listen on: Apple | Spotify   💬 Follow for live breakdowns: X.com/primetimepk | Twitch.tv/primetimepk  | Kick.com/primetimepk 🔗 Support the Show:   - Tip Jar: https://streamelements.com/couchpotatodiary/tip (fuels more content!)   - Partners: C of Dead | Swift Energy PROMO CODE: PKPrimetime for 25% Off!

    NBA Trade Madness (Harden to Cavs a Mistake), Super Bowl Paths & Anthony Davis to Wizards LIVE

    NBA trade madness, Super Bowl LIX breakdown, and a LIVE Anthony Davis trade reaction. Peter Klein covers four NBA trades (James Harden to Cavs is a MISTAKE), Patriots and Seahawks paths to the Super Bowl, X-Factors, paths to victory, plus WWE Raw's Roman Reigns promo and the AD blockbuster. NBA TRADE MADNESS: Four trades happened yesterday. HEADLINE: James Harden going to the Cleveland Cavaliers is a MISTAKE for Cleveland. Full breakdown of why this doesn't work for the Cavs. PATRIOTS PATH TO SUPER BOWL: Breaking down New England's schedule and the easy path they had to Super Bowl LIX. This is why everyone is skeptical of the Patriots in the title game this year—they haven't beaten quality opponents. FRAMBER VALDEZ TO BLUE JAYS RUMORS: Twitch chat question brought this up. I don't understand it at all from a Blue Jays standpoint and don't think there's a lot of validity to these rumors. Why would Toronto do this? SEAHAWKS PATH TO SUPER BOWL: Breaking down Seattle's schedule, when people started taking them seriously, and how GOOD this defense is. The Seahawks are legit. SUPER BOWL X-FACTORS: Patriots: Christian Gonzalez - The young, good DB covering either Jaxon Smith-Njigba or Cooper Kupp. He's on a key Seattle receiver either way.Seahawks: Kenneth Walker III - Seattle doesn't want to be one-dimensional. Walker needs to be a big part of their offense.PATRIOTS PATH TO VICTORY: To win Super Bowl LIX, Drake Maye needs to make plays with his legs and the Patriots defense needs to make Seattle one-dimensional. Can they execute? WWE RAW FINAL SEGMENT REACTION: Just a FANTASTIC promo from Roman Reigns. Shows why they picked him to win the Royal Rumble and main event WrestleMania. Roman is still the guy. ANTHONY DAVIS TRADED TO WIZARDS (BREAKING LIVE): This MASSIVE trade happened while I was streaming live. I don't love this fit for Washington, but I like their strategy of swinging big. ⏱️ Multi-sport stream covering NBA, NFL, MLB & WWE 👍 SUBSCRIBE to Couch Potato Diary for daily sports coverage In This Episode: Intro (0:00) NBA Trade Madness (2:30)New England's Path to the Super Bowl (18:02)Blue Jays/Framber Valdez Rumours (23:43) Seattle's Path to the Super Bowl (29:00)Super Bowl X-Factors (42:45) New England's Path to Victory (47:32)WWE Raw Recap (50:59)Anthony Davis trade breaks DURING THE SHOW (59:46)Outro (1:12:15) #NBA #JamesHarden #Cavs #SuperBowl #SuperBowlLIX #Patriots #Seahawks #DrakeMaye #AnthonyDavis #Wizards #BlueJays #WWE #RAW #RomanReigns #CouchPotatoDiary #PeterKlein #SportsAnalysis #LiveReaction Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
