Super Bowl 2026 — Meet the quarterbacks
As ever, the quarterbacks will command much of the attention on Super Bowl night. New England’s Drake Maye has rapidly emerged as one of the most talked-about players in the league, finishing just behind Matthew Stafford in the NFL MVP contest. He is set to become the youngest quarterback to start a Super Bowl since Dan Marino in 1985.
On the opposite sideline stands Seattle’s Sam Darnold, whose journey to this stage has been far less straightforward. After struggling through disappointing spells with the New York Jets and Carolina Panthers, Darnold was even moved on by the Minnesota Vikings last season, despite helping them reach the playoffs. He has been very risk averse in the play-offs, is that something he will continue tonight?

Coin toss time...
Referee Shawn Smith flips the coin. Seattle calls tails, but it lands on heads, and New England elects to defer to the second half and opt to switch ends.
Seattle will receive first.
We are underway in Santa Clara...
After all the hype, predictions, and endless debate, only one team will emerge victorious. Will it be New England or Seattle? Let’s find out…
Seattle 3-0 New England
Good start from Seattle as they get into the red zone early on and add an early three points onto the board courtesy of Jason Myers.
Here comes Drake Maye...
The 23-year-old's first chance to make an impression. What can he do?
Maye Sacked!

Seattle 3-0 New England — 1st Quarter Over
Tale of the defenses so far with neither side able to make any real inroads. Maye has been sacked twice in the opening quarter while Darnold has played some noticeably risky passes.
Seattle 6-0 New England
Seattle once again looks the more adventurous as Kenneth Walker rushes them upfield to get them within field-goal position. Jason Myers comfortably knocks over another three.
3rd sack on Maye!

Seattle 6-0 New England
Not one for the neutrals here with defense still on top in Santa Clara.
In other news, Bad Bunny is readying his historic halftime show. Expect that to arrive very soon.
Halftime — Seattle 9-0 New England
Seattle goes close to the opening touchdown through Jaxon Smith-Njigba, but he can’t quite beat Christian Gonzalez to it. Instead, they settle for a field goal and add another three.
