[h3]Duel in the Desert[/h3]
Super Bowl XLIX matches each conference's top seed for the second consecutive year as the defending champion Seahawks represent the NFC in going up against the AFC champion Patriots on February 1 at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. This will be New England’s eighth Super Bowl appearance (3-4) while Seattle is in its third title game (1-1).

[h4]Seahawks: Mind-blowing stats[/h4]

[h1]1[/h1]

Winner vs. Winners: Russell Wilson is 10-0 career vs. Super Bowl winning quarterbacks (3-0 vs. Aaron Rodgers; 2-0 vs. Eli Manning; 2-0 vs. Peyton Manning; 2-0 vs. Drew Brees; 1-0 vs. Tom Brady). He'll try to make it 11-0 as the Seahawks go against Brady and the Patriots in Glendale.

[h1]  [/h1][h1]2[/h1]

Riding High: Seattle entered the playoffs with a six-game winning streak. The last team to win the Super Bowl with a winning streak of five games or more going into the playoffs was the 2003 Patriots, who were riding a 12-game streak heading into the postseason.

[h1]  [/h1][h1]3[/h1]

All About The D: Seahawks once again head into the Super Bowl with the league's best defense. It was ranked first in points per game (15.9), first in yards per game (267.1), third in rushing yards per game (81.5) and first in passing yards per game (185.6).

[h4]Patriots: Mind-blowing stats[/h4]

[h1]1[/h1]

Dynamic partnership: Bill Belichick with Tom Brady as his quarterback has a record of 180-55. Without Brady he is 52-63. The quarterbacks other than Brady that Belichick has had start in New England and Cleveland? Matt Cassel, Drew Bledsoe, Vinny Testaverde, Bernie Kosar, Mike Tomczak, Todd Philcox, Eric Zeier, and Mark Rypien.

[h1]2[/h1]

Here I come, Joe: Tom Brady has seven postseason games with three or more TD passes, second most in NFL postseason history. He trails only Joe Montana, who had nine postseason games with three or more TD passes.

Thanks for the gig: Bill Belichick becomes only the third coach to go up against his predecessor in the Super Bowl. Pete Carroll had the Patriots job before Belichick. In Super Bowl XXXVII, Tampa Bay's Jon Gruden faced Oakland's Bill Callahan, Gruden's former assistant with the Raiders. And in Super Bowl III, the Jets' Weeb Ewbank faced his former team Baltimore and Don Shula.

[h4]Seahawks' leading men[/h4]

LYN442976.png


[h4]RB Marshawn Lynch[/h4]
Lynch has been huge this year. He had more than 1,000 yards and 10 TDs for the fourth consecutive season and led the NFL in TDs with 17. He had 157 yards and a TD in the NFC title game win over the Packers. Look for Beastmode to be a factor once again in the Super Bowl.

WIL777781.png


[h4]QB Russell Wilson[/h4]
Wilson has had a remarkable run since joining the Seahawks. His 36-12 record is the most wins by a quarterback during his first three seasons. He joins Joe Flacco as the only QBs in NFL history to start and win a playoff game in each of his first three seasons.

[h4]Coach Pete Carroll[/h4]
Carroll is looking to become only the seventh coach to lead his team to consecutive Super Bowl titles, joining Vince Lombardi (Packers), Don Shula (Dolphins), Chuck Noll (Steelers), Jimmy Johnson (Cowboys), Mike Shanahan (Broncos) and Bill Belichick (Patriots). At 63, he would be the second-oldest coach to win the game behind Tom Coughlin.

[h4]QB Tom Brady[/h4]
Brady is looking to join idol Joe Montana with four Super Bowl rings. He is 20-8 in the postseason and 3-2 in the Super Bowl. He has the NFL record for most postseason starts by a quarterback (28), postseason wins by a QB (20) and most TD passes (49).

[h4]TE Rob Gronkowski[/h4]
After having injury-plagued campaigns in 2012 and 2013, Gronk returned to Pro Bowl form with 82 catches and 12 TDs during the regular season. He has more receiving touchdowns during his first five seasons than any tight end in NFL history (55).

[h4]Coach Bill Belichick[/h4]
This is Belichick's sixth trip to the Super Bowl as head coach of the Patriots (3-2). Under his leadership since taking over in 2000, New England is 176-65. He is the all-time winningest coach in NFL postseason history with 21, one more than Dallas' Tom Landry.

[h2]First look: Seven things to watch in Super Bowl XLIX[/h2][h2]Seattle, Suddenly Super[/h2][h2]In a Happy Place: Belichick, Brady and the Patriots have spent 10 years chasing their fourth ring.

Should be a fun game.

Seahawks got handled by a weak defense for most of the night and they needed Green Bay to make mistakes and miscues only to win the game by a hair. I'd say the Pats has a huge chance to win it all.

NO ONE expected either team to play this poorly, but Seattle made the 'clutch' plays when they needed it the most.  I doubt Wilson will be making the same mistakes again, and I expect them to go to Lynch often as he'll wear out the Pat's defense.  Mr. Hoody w/ Head Set outside is going deep into the woods and consulting GANDOLFF with WITCH CRAFT.  Will have all sorts of guys reporting about line ups and what not.  We'll proally see Solder with 4 TDs.

Wilson seemed shaken as much as he was mistake prone and Lynch was mostly limited though mostly productive against a subpar Green Bay team, the Pats should be able to limit him more and should pressure Wilson enough to keep him off balance.

No way Brady loses 3 in a row. I don't expect Brady to challenge Sherman but should light up the other db's. I see the Pats winning 34-31
