One final game remains in the 2026 NFL season, and it’s the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots battling it out for bragging rights as Super Bowl champions for the next year.
For both teams it represents a quick turnaround after recent coaching changes. Both Seattle and New England moved on from longtime coaches Pete Carrol and Bill Belichick, respectively, after the 2023 season, and then the Patriots moved on from Belichick’s replacement, Jerod Mayo, after a horrible 2024 season.
In any case,
with the two teams set to face off on Sunday, Field Gulls own John P. Gilbert joined KMA Sports of Shenandoah, Iowa for one last NFL preview of the season, going over several key topics, including:
- The play. Yeah, that one. The one that made Malcolm Butler a household name.
- Some of the offseason changes that let the Seahawks go from missing the postseason to in the Super Bowl.
- What does Seattle need to do to win?
- Has Sam Darnold arrived?
- What could the Patriots do to come out victorious?
The entire preview is a whopping 11 minutes and 26 seconds, and it’s Friday afternoon heading into Super Bowl weekend, so there is zero point pretending you’re going to get anything productive done this afternoon or over the next two days. Thus, the only thing to do is to kick back and enjoy my rambling thoughts on the most important game the Seahawks have played in more than a decade.
