Summary

RUNDOWN

 

Mitch and Hotshot Scott open Episode 370 trying to process the strange calm that followed the Seahawks' 29–13 Super Bowl win, debating whether a championship can feel almost too controlled. The conversation reflects on Seattle's sustained success over the past two decades, Sam Darnold's improbable Super Bowl run, and why early power rankings already underrating the Seahawks feel laughably disconnected from reality.

Ray Roberts joins Mitch Levy to explain why he never wavered in his Super Bowl prediction, breaking down how Seattle's physical dominance, defensive structure, and commitment to the run made the Patriots non-threatening from the opening drive. Ray details why the game was effectively decided by halftime, how Kenneth Walker and the offensive line wore New England down, and why this Seahawks team's rare level of connectedness separated them from past contenders.

Jason Puckett joins Mitch to break down why the Seahawks' Super Bowl 60 win unfolded almost perfectly according to script, from defensive domination to a controlled, mistake-free performance by Sam Darnold. Puck explains how Seattle's pass rush, disguised coverages, and relentless pressure overwhelmed New England, while Kenneth Walker's patience and explosiveness anchored the offense.

Mitch is joined by Brady Henderson and Jacson Bevens for a celebratory Seahawks No-Table following Seattle's 29–13 win over the Patriots in Super Bowl 60. The conversation looks ahead to roster decisions and whether this Mike Macdonald defense deserves comparison to the Legion of Boom.

Mitch reconnects with Professor Slick to relive the Seahawks' Super Bowl 60. Slick reflects on where this title ranks among the greatest moments of his sports-fan life, why national media missed the story entirely, and how Seattle's defense and Kenneth Walker controlled the game from start to finish.

Calling in from Tokyo after travel chaos rerouted him from Sapporo, Danny O'Neil joins Mitch to break down the Seahawks' 29–13 Super Bowl 60 win. The conversation dissects Seattle's defensive dominance, Michael Dickson's hidden-impact special teams performance, Devin Witherspoon's breakout night, and how this unit compares stylistically — but not structurally — to the Legion of Boom.

It's freaking ridiculous, isn't it?

0:05.1

Is it possible to quietly win a Super Bowl?

0:08.5

Is that even possible?

0:09.5

Because why does it feel like they just quietly won the Super Bowl?

0:12.5

Do you think anybody was entertained by that game outside of everybody in Seattle?

0:17.3

We know that nobody in Boston, Massachusetts or in New England was entertained by

0:22.6

that game. Are we going to be reading on Monday and Tuesday? That was the most boring Super Bowl

0:27.6

in the history of Super Bowls or not? Maybe, but I'll tell you who loved it. Jets fans,

0:32.3

Bill's fans, and Dolphins fans. That's who loved it. Outside of that, you might be right.

0:36.8

Speaking of Dolphins fans, let me try this one out on you. I went to college in 1986, 1985, 1986. The Dolphins had just been to the Super Bowl in Damarino's second year. The Seahawks just win the Super Bowl. What the hell are we doing here? But okay, I'm with you so far. Okay. It's about the Seahawks. It's not about the Dolans. Dan Marino was like in his third year. He'd already taken the Dolphins in Super Bowl.

1:00.2

Right.

1:00.4

That's 1986.

1:01.4

If you had told me back then that over the next 40 years,

1:06.5

the dolphins are not going to ever get back one time to the Super Bowl and the Seahawks are going to play in four of them and win two. Right. Forget winning one. The dolphins won't even smell one. They won't even see one. When I was a little kid, like I looked at the dolphins as like an elite club and you know the Seahawks. They play football and maybe one day they'll be good. it was the niners you know the cowboys the dolphins these are the teams that go to the super

1:50.4

I mean, all the guy did, what did he go 17 and three and win the Super Bowl? He won the Super Bowl.

1:54.8

Well, I don't know. I haven't seen enough yet. And there's nobody saying right now that and win the Super Bowl. He won the Super Bowl. I don't know.

2:00.1

I haven't seen enough yet. And there's nobody saying right now that they won the Super Bowl because of Sam Darnold. They are going to be the odds on favorite to win the Super Bowl next year again. Because why wouldn't they? At this point, they've now proven that they're great on defense and that Sam Donald isold is good enough to win a Super Bowl and they're not going to lose many
