Every all-time great defense plays in a lopsided Super Bowl.
1985 Bears won 46-10, 2013 Seahawks won 43-8, last year's Eagles won 40-22, this year's Seahawks won 29-13, 2000 Ravens won 34-7, 2002 Bucs won 48-21.
I get it when casuals call it boring. Regular fans who hate defense should just cope.

I will mock the Cowboys all I want but if they ever make the Super Bowl I will pull for them because of you!

One more special shoutout to @dougfarrar.bsky.social after meeting a Field Gulls OG for the first time. He's been doing great work with SBN and Athlon Sports this season and had several guest columns on FG this year.

I cannot thank enough the following: @jeannakelley.com, @rjochoa.bsky.social, and @davidfucillo.bsky.social. We were the @sbnation.bsky.social team in the Bay Area and it was a blast working with and learning from them.
It's embarrassingly cliche to say, but it was a once in a lifetime experience.

It's been a week and it has barely sunk in that I got to cover a Seahawks Super Bowl win in my hometown.
I cannot properly express what a great experience that was. I suppose the perfect ending would've been to cover the game in-person but not doing so allowed me to just be a fan for a day.

She invented a whole new slur in 2026. I anticipate her new podcast.
HGTV has canceled its home restoration series, Rehab Addict, after host Nicole Curtis was caught using a racial slur during filming.

That play bugged me a tad because in the progression Barner is wide, wide open for a first down and getting out of bounds. Enough time to still take a shot.

In the span of 3 years, AJ Barner has won a national title with Michigan, a Super Bowl with the Seahawks, and even his old school (Indiana) just won the CFP national title.
AJ Barner was born to be in a championship parade. All the vibes.

Got someone on the other app insisting to me that Sam Darnold is now in Pro Football Hall of Fame talk.
I think we found the one Seahawks fan who thinks like an Eagles fan.

Such a pointless thing people got worked up over. Like he was building a new wing at VMAC or something.
Remember when people lost their minds because MM took some posters down and removed the basketball hoop?

The Panthers just love them some former Seahawks.
The Panthers are hiring Darrell Bevell as associate head coach/offensive specialist, per sources.
A longtime respected NFL assistant, Bevell brings a wealth of experience to Dave Canales’ staff as Carolina aims to take the next step.

I'm back home in Portland and it's jarring when you go from San Francisco's extreme Bay Bridge traffic to literally not a single major Portland freeway being in gridlock at 5 pm.
