The Seattle Seahawks have officially etched their names into the NFL record books after securing a Super Bowl victory behind a historic performance. Led by quarterback Sam Darnold, the Seahawks became the first Super Bowl champion in league history to complete an entire postseason run without committing a single turnover, per @AdamSchefter.
This unprecedented streak of ball security comes as a significant surprise following the team's regular-season performance. Seattle concluded the regular season with 28 total turnovers, the second-highest mark in the league, surpassed only by the Minnesota Vikings. The Seahawks managed to reverse that trend at the most critical juncture of the year, protecting the football through every round of the playoffs to clinch the title.
The feat highlights a remarkable turnaround for Darnold and the Seattle offense, which successfully navigated the highest stakes in professional football without a single fumble or interception. No other championship team in the Super Bowl era had previously managed to navigate the postseason with a completely clean sheet in the turnover column.
