Sunday Rundown recaps the most important developments from the day’s action and examines their significance moving forward.
Halftime notes ✍️
Seattle’s Kenneth Walker excelled against New England’s run defense, gaining 94 yards and setting up a field goal, while the Seahawks’ defense overwhelmed quarterback Drake Maye, pressuring him on nearly half his dropbacks. The Patriots’ blitz-heavy strategy kept them in the game despite a scoreless first half, but they need a game-changing play to turn the tide. While the low-scoring affair has drawn comparisons to past Super Bowls, aggressive defensive play-calling has defined the matchup. Dan Wilkins is theScore’s senior NFL writer.
