Facts only: 5 must-know tidbits about Seahawks' Super Bowl run
The Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl champions for the second time in franchise history after defeating the New England Patriots 29-13 on Sunday. Seattle's path to another Lombardi Trophy included more than a few memorable performances and achievements.
Here are the five facts about the Seahawks' journey to winning Super Bowl LX.
Sam Darnold becomes first USC QB to win a Super Bowl as a starter
The list of former USC quarterbacks to start and win a Super Bowl begins and ends with Darnold. His path to the mountaintop seemed unlikely considering his turbulent journey, marked by obstacles and setbacks. Drafted third overall in 2018, Darnold is also the first passer from that class to hold the Lombardi Trophy, beating out the likes of Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, and Baker Mayfield.
Cooper Kupp joins Jerry Rice as the only WRs with multiple Super Bowls and an Offensive Player of the Year award
Kupp, who led the Seahawks in receptions (six) and receiving yards (61) Sunday, can now say he's done something only the legendary Rice has replicated. With two Super Bowls and an Offensive Player of the Year award under his belt, Kupp is in excellent company.
Mike Macdonald records the most wins in a season by a head coach under 40, including playoffs
Macdonald needed just two seasons to lead the Seahawks to a Super Bowl victory. The 38-year-old is not only the third-youngest coach to capture the Lombardi Trophy, but also, more impressively, his 17 wins over the regular season and playoffs are the most by a coach under 40. The scary thought is that he might just be getting started, too.
Jason Myers scores most points in a single season in NFL history, including playoffs
Myers ended his 2025 season with 206 points scored, including playoffs. That's the most ever by an NFL player, surpassing the previous record of 198 points by LaDainian Tomlinson in 2006.
Seahawks didn't turn the ball over during their entire postseason run
Seattle played an unprecedented version of mistake-free football, becoming the first team in NFL history to win the Super Bowl without committing a turnover during their playoff run.
