SB LX Showdown: Five pivotal storylines for Seahawks vs Patriots

NFL Pro’s SB LX preview highlights five key storylines shaping Seahawks–Patriots: Seattle’s big-play threat duo led by Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Kenneth Walker III against New England’s shutdown defense; Drake Maye’s scrambling as a potential game-changing weapon; Sam Darnold’s postseason surge under pressure for the Patriots; a running-back clash between Walker and Stevenson with red-zone and box dynamics; and elite return capabilities from Rashid Shaheed and Marcus Jones that could swing field position and scoring. The game will likely hinge on the big-play and special-teams battles on the biggest stage.
