The matchup for Super Bowl 60 is officially set as the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks both secured victories in Sunday's conference championship games, according to @AdamSchefter.
In the AFC, the Patriots advanced to their 12th Super Bowl in franchise history with a hard-fought 10-7 win over the Denver Broncos. Playing in snowy conditions in Denver, head coach Mike Vrabel's squad relied on a dominant defensive performance to seal the victory. Quarterback Drake Maye helped navigate the elements to lead New England back to the title game for the first time in seven years.
The NFC Championship saw the Seahawks defeat the Los Angeles Rams 31-27 in a thriller at Lumen Field. Sam Darnold threw for three touchdowns to lead Mike Macdonald's team to their first Super Bowl appearance since 2015. The Seahawks' defense came up with a pivotal fourth-down stop late in the fourth quarter to preserve the lead and punch their ticket to the championship.
Super Bowl 60 is scheduled for February 8, 2026, at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The game will be a historic rematch of Super Bowl XLIX, which the two franchises played 11 years ago.
