In less than a week, the Patriots and the Seahawks will face off in a Super Bowl matchup no one saw coming: journeyman QB and former top-five pick Sam Darnold vs. young star and New England savior Drake Maye.
It's a fabulous tale on both sides. Maye is in just his second year in the league, but is nonetheless responsible for reviving a franchise that had been struggling since the departure of legendary quarterback Tom Brady. Darnold, meanwhile, has been in the league, but reignited his career after a stellar turn in the spotlight last season. Now, he's the starter in Seattle and Super Bowl-bound, years after he'd basically been written off.
