Super Bowl LX closes with Seattle vs. New England on Sunday, Feb. 8, 2026 (6:30 PM ET) at Levi’s Stadium. The market has Seattle as the clear favorite, with a lot of that respect tied to how steady the Seahawks play on both lines.
This game can swing on two things that bettors hate: explosive plays and short fields. New England has been a big-play passing team all year. Seattle’s defense has also been strong at limiting chunk gains, so it’s a real clash of styles.
On the other side, Seattle’s offense looks comfortable playing from under center and building long drives.. That fits a Super Bowl script where possessions matter and red-zone stops turn into field goals. Seattle’s profile says it can win without playing fast, which often keeps under tickets alive.
The biggest wild card is health. Seattle left tackle Charles Cross is questionable, and that matters in a game where one or two sacks can flip a drive. New England also has key linebackers listed questionable, and that can change how well the Patriots hold up against the run.

New England’s pass game lives on explosives: 9.9% explosive pass rate (97th percentile) on 15-plus yard throws.
Seattle can create explosives too: 9.6% explosive pass rate (89th percentile), plus a 6.6% deep explosive pass rate (91st percentile).
Seattle’s defense can squeeze third downs: 64.3% third-down stop rate (94th percentile).
New England has been great on long-yardage downs: 36.0% third-and-long conversion (97th percentile), which can keep drives alive.
The Patriots have had issues protecting the QB: 8.3% sack rate allowed (16th percentile), a rough matchup versus Seattle’s pressure.
Seattle’s offense is built for sustained drives: 95.2% long drive efficiency (100th percentile), which can wear down a thinner front.
Seahawks -4.5 (-123): Seattle’s edge starts in the trenches. NE’s 8.3% sack rate allowed is a problem versus a defense that can finish plays.
Total 45.5 (Under -115, Over -119): The number is sitting in the mid-40s. That usually means one team needs to reach the mid-20s, or both land in the low 20s.
Seahawks moneyline -244 vs. Patriots +195: If you believe Seattle’s floor is higher, the price says you pay for safety. If you like New England, you are buying volatility.
Drake Maye over 221.5 passing yards (-120): New England’s explosive pass rate is elite (9.9%). If the run gets stuck, volume can carry this.
Kenneth Walker III over 69.5 rushing yards (-133): Seattle has a strong explosive run rate (5.1%), and New England’s goal-line stopping profile has been weak (42.1% goal-line stuff rate).
Jaxon Smith-Njigba anytime TD (-111): Seattle creates chunk gains through the air, and this price is close to even, which is rare for a featured scoring option.
Seattle deserves to be favored, and the matchup math explains why. The Patriots’ pass protection has been leaky, and Seattle’s defense can turn pressure into drive-killing plays. If the Seahawks get ahead, they can lean into long drives and keep New England chasing.
New England’s path is also clear. Hit a couple explosives early, stay out of third-and-long sacks, and force Seattle to score quickly instead of grinding. If the Patriots do that, the dog price starts to make sense.
The injury list adds real uncertainty. If Charles Cross is limited, Seattle’s offense can lose some rhythm. If New England’s key linebackers cannot go, the Patriots can struggle to hold up versus under-center runs and play-action.
From a betting view, Seattle -4.5 is the cleanest “trust the better team” angle, while the total sits right on the fence. If you are playing props, focus on roles that match the team profiles: Maye’s passing volume, Walker’s rushing workload, and Seattle’s top TD options.
