Seahawks and Patriots were massive underdogs — now they're headed to Santa Clara on Feb. 8.

In less than two weeks, two quarterbacks with virtually no shot at the Super Bowl at the season's start will meet on football's biggest stage.

The Seahawks entered the season at +6000 odds to win Super Bowl LX. The Patriots, coming off a disastrous 4-13 campaign in 2024, were priced between +6000 and +12500 to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.

Now they're headed to the Super Bowl.

Sam Darnold's Path to Santa Clara

Passing Yards: Over 230.5 (-111) | Under 230.5 (-113)

Darnold surpassed 230 yards 10 times in the regular season and once in the playoffs — a commanding 346-yard performance against the Rams in the NFC Championship Game. Seattle's record tells the story: 9-2 when Darnold exceeds 230 passing yards, including playoffs.

Pass Attempts: Over 30.5 (-106) | Under 30.5 (-120)

He attempted 30 or more passes eight times this season, including 36 attempts in the NFC Championship. The Seahawks are 6-2 in those games.

Completions: Over 20.5 (-109) | Under 20.5 (-117)

Darnold completed 20 or more passes nine times this season, with Seattle posting a 7-2 record in those contests. His postseason completion percentage has climbed to 69.8%, up from 67.7% during the regular season.

Passing Touchdowns: Over 1.5 (-136) | Under 1.5 (+107)

Nine times this season, Darnold threw two or more touchdown passes — the Seahawks went 8-1 in those games. He's thrown four total passing touchdowns so far in the playoffs.

Interceptions: Over 0.5 (-141) | Under 0.5 (+111)

The standout stat: Darnold has yet to throw a pick in the playoffs. In regular-season games where he threw at least one interception, Seattle posted a 7-2 record.

Rushing Yards: Over 6.5 (-115) | Under 6.5 (-109)

Darnold is not a runner. Only four times this season has he rushed for more than 10 yards, and twice he topped 20 yards on the ground. He's had 12 games with five rushing yards or fewer. This postseason, he has nine total rushing yards.

Drake Maye's Unexpected Run

Passing Yards: Over 225.5 (-111) | Under 225.5 (-113)

Maye eclipsed 225 passing yards 13 times in the regular season (11-2 record), but the postseason tells a different story. He's thrown for 200 yards just once in the playoffs — 268 yards against the Chargers in the wild card round — and bottomed out with 86 yards in the AFC Championship Game. New England is 5-0 this year when Maye throws for fewer than 225 yards.

Pass Attempts: Over 31.5 (-107) | Under 31.5 (-119)

Maye hasn't attempted 30 passes in any postseason game, though he did so eight times in the regular season, with New England going 6-2 in those games.

Completions: Over 19.5 (-113) | Under 19.5 (-113)

Maye led the entire NFL in completion percentage this season at 72% — the only QB to clear 70%. He completed 20 or more passes eight times in the regular season. But the playoffs have been brutal: he hasn't completed 20 passes in a postseason game, and his completion percentage has plummeted to 55.8%.

Passing Touchdowns: Over 1.5 (+112) | Under 1.5 (-143)

This postseason, Maye has thrown one TD against the Chargers, three against the Texans, and none against the Broncos. During the regular season, he threw two or more touchdowns 11 times, with the Patriots posting a 10-1 record in those games.

Interceptions: Over 0.5 (-120) | Under 0.5 (-106)

Maye has one interception this postseason and threw eight in the regular season. He never had a game with more than one pick. In all three of New England's regular-season losses, Maye threw an interception.

Rushing Yards: Over 33.5 (-113) | Under 33.5 (-111)

Unlike Darnold, Maye has become a force with his legs. He's recorded double-digit rushing yards in every game this season except one. In the AFC Championship, he rushed for 65 yards. In the wild-card round: 66 yards.
