The Seattle Seahawks open as 4.5-point favorites over the New England Patriots ahead of Super Bowl LX. The Seahawks come into the title game as the number one seed from the NFC and with wins over the 49ers and the Rams in the Divisional and Conference Championship rounds, respectively.
Seattle not only crushed San Francisco a couple of weeks ago, but their overall dominance on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball reinforced their entire regular season. They then followed it up with another strong performance against Los Angeles on Sunday, with quarterback Sam Darnold leading the way on offense.
So far in the two postseason games for Darnold, the former Viking has 470 passing yards, a completion percentage near 70%, 4 passing touchdowns, 0 interceptions, and a passer rating of 122.4.

As for New England, the Patriots have reached the Super Bowl as the number 2 seed from the AFC. New England won resoundingly against the Chargers and Texans at home in the Wild Card and Divisional rounds, but faced an extremely tough challenge on the road against the Broncos.
The Patriots have generally played well on both sides of the ball, but scoring points has been difficult, especially given that all their games have come in unfavorable conditions. Second-year quarterback Drake Maye has used his dual-threat ability to a good extent, but his numbers have dipped considerably in the postseason. Maye has 533 passing yards, with a completion percentage of 55.8%, and has thrown 4 touchdowns and 2 picks for a passer rating of 84.
Overall, the Seahawks have been the more battle-tested team of the two, having had a more moderately difficult schedule than the Patriots, who had one of the easiest schedules in the league this season. In spite of that, Seattle looks like the more balanced side heading into the Championship game.
