I know there is an enormous variety of ways to bet on the SB, but if I were betting, I'd give the points and take the 'Hawks. Extremely stingy defense against an offense/QB who has shown tendencies in the playoffs to give up turnovers and have stretches of ineffectiveness. Maye can and has made some outstanding plays during the playoffs, but he's also put the ball at risk, taken a few sacks he probably shouldn't, etc. The one wildcard is his ability to scramble and turn some bad plays into good ones - Seattle must keep him in the pocket.
Hard to believe Sam Darnold is a starting QB in the SB on his own merits (and, trivia fact, the first USC Trojan starting QB in SB history), but he's played very smartly and not tried to do too much. While NE's defense is pretty good, also, I think the Seahawks will be able to control the clock, keep NE bottled up in their own half of the field and slowly, but surely, put enough points on the board to win comfortably.
I'll go with 26-9, Seahawks.
Another prediction that will 100% come true: I will, once again, not watch a single second of the halftime show. I've never heard of Bad Bunny and don't listen to any current 'pop' songs. Just not my jam. Certainly, there are current musical artists that I like and listen to, but not in the popular genres: rap, hip-hop, electronica, dance/pop, etc.
