Super Bowl LX:  Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots 

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The stage is set for a historic milestone in American sports as the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks have officially punched their tickets to Super Bowl LX. The 60th edition of the NFL’s championship game will return to Levi’s Stadium on February 8, 2026, marking a decade since the venue last hosted the spectacle.

The Road to Santa Clara

The journey to the championship was defined by grit and dramatic finishes during Conference Championship Sunday.

In a snowy battle in Denver, the New England Patriots outlasted the Broncos with a 10-7 victory. Led by breakout second-year quarterback Drake Maye, the Patriots navigated a blizzard to secure their 12th Super Bowl appearance. The win marks a significant return to form for the franchise, which has struggled in the post-Brady era but has found new life under head coach Mike Vrabel.

In the NFC, the Seattle Seahawks claimed their spot after a high-scoring 31-27 victory over the Los Angeles Rams. Veteran quarterback Sam Darnold threw for 346 yards and three touchdowns, while receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba dominated with 153 receiving yards. This will be Seattle’s fourth Super Bowl appearance as they chase their second Lombardi Trophy.

A Rematch of Epic Proportions

Super Bowl LX serves as a long-awaited rematch of Super Bowl XLIX in 2015, where the Patriots famously defeated the Seahawks 28-24. For Seattle fans, the opportunity for redemption comes eleven years after one of the most talked-about endings in NFL history.
