Seahawks Crush Broncos
for First Super Bowl Win
Super Bowl
XLVIII took place in East Rutherford, New Jersey on February 2 2014, where the Seattle
Seahawks faced off against the Denver Broncos in one of the biggest defeats in
Super Bowl and NFL history. The Seahawks dominated the Broncos in every aspect
of the game in Super Bowl XLVII, with a crushing final score of 43-8 for the
Seahawks.
The Seahawks
victory was sparked by a defense that ranks first in the league and maybe one
of the best defenses ever. In addition the Broncos where completely dominated
in special teams and even offensively, by Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson.
Wilson had the Denver defense completely beat and had already thrown for 100+ yards
by halftime. Wilson goes on to say “We been relentless all season. Having that
mentality of a championship every day. At the end of the day you just want to
play your best football.” Head coach Pete Carroll also says "This is an
amazing team. Took us four years to get to this point but they (Seahawks) never
have taken a step sideways. These guys would not take anything but winning this
ballgame."
In further
detail Super Bowl XLVIII’s MVP award went to linebacker Malcom Smith, which was
the first time in more than ten years that the MVP was a defensive player. In
addition the score line for the game went: 8-0 for Seattle at the end of the
first quarter, 22-0 at halftime, 36-8 at the end of the third quarter, and a
final score of 43-8. All in all we can see that the Seahawks had the Broncos
completely disarmed in every aspect of the game and put up one of the most
dominant games in Super Bowl history.
