SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The bird has landed. The Seattle Seahawks touched down in the Bay Area late Sunday, officially kicking off Super Bowl LX week. Fresh off a nail-biting 31-27 NFC Championship victory over the Los Angeles Rams, Seattle isn’t just here for the sunshine—they are here to finish the job. The squad arrived at San Jose Mineta International Airport, just miles from Levi’s Stadium, the very site where they strangled the 49ers 13-3 in Week 18 to clinch the NFC’s No. 1 seed.
Strictly Business: The Arrival
There were no smiles on the tarmac—only headphones and hoodies. The official team account posted a simple, chilling caption: “Touched down in Santa Clara.” It’s a clear message to the New England Patriots, who also arrived in California yesterday. While the media frenzy builds around Opening Night in San Jose, the Seahawks are operating with military precision. They’ve been here before. They know this stadium. And they know exactly how to win in this zip code.
Key Stat: The Seahawks are 2-0 at Levi’s Stadium this season, including that dominant Week 18 defensive masterclass where they held San Francisco to a single field goal.
“No more taunting penalties… We brothers and we all chasing greatness, we on the same mission.” — Tariq Woolen, Seahawks Cornerback
Super Bowl LX Implications
This matchup screams “instant classic.” You have the NFC’s No. 1 seed Seahawks, battle-hardened by a 14-3 regular season, going up against a Patriots team that just dismantled the AFC field. Seattle’s defense, the self-proclaimed “Dark Side,” has been lights out, but they face a different beast in New England. With practice set to begin at San Jose State later this week, the focus now shifts to the game plan. Can Seattle’s pass rush disrupt the Patriots’ rhythm? We find out in six days.
