The Seattle Seahawks have officially touched down in the Bay Area, kicking off Super Bowl LX week with a mission to finish the job.
Riding high from a nail-biting 31-27 NFC Championship win over the Rams, Seattle isn't here for the sunshine—they are here to win.
The team arrived at San Jose Mineta International Airport, just miles from Levi’s Stadium—the site where they clinched the NFC’s No. 1 seed.
There were no smiles on the tarmac. With headphones on and hoodies up, the team’s mood was focused and chillingly calm.
The Seahawks' arrival sends a clear signal to the Patriots, who landed yesterday: Seattle knows this zip code and exactly how to win here.
Key Stat: The Seahawks are 2-0 at Levi's Stadium this season, including a dominant defensive masterclass in Week 18 against the 49ers.
CB Tariq Woolen set the tone: "No more taunting penalties... We brothers and we all chasing greatness, we on the same mission."
Seattle’s self-proclaimed "Dark Side" defense has been lights out, but they now face a different beast in the AFC champion Patriots.
It’s the battle-hardened 14-3 Seahawks vs. a Patriots team that dismantled the AFC. This matchup screams "instant classic."
Practice begins at San Jose State later this week. Can Seattle’s pass rush disrupt the Patriots? We find out in six days.
