Super Bowl XLIX: New England Patriots vs. Seattle Seahawks Game Time, TV Schedule, Online Streaming and more

It's Super Bowl Sunday featuring two teams that you probably don't care about.  The number 1 seeds from the AFC and NFC will face off for the Lombardi Trophy.  The Seahawks are looking to become the first back-to-back Champions since the Patriots did it a decade ago.  Since that time the Patriots have not won another Super Bowl, appearing in two, but falling to the New York Giants both times.  This will be the 6th Super Bowl appearance for the Brady/Belichick combination.  Tom Brady is looking to join the elite club of quarterbacks who have won 4 Super Bowls(along with Terry Bradshaw and Joe Montana), and cement his legacy as one of the greatest QBs of all time.

On the other side, you have the Seattle Seahawks who are looking to create their own Super Bowl dynasty. Quarterback Russell Wilson won a Super Bowl in his second season, and is looking to become the first QB in NFL history to win twice in his first 3 years in the league(it took Brady 4 seasons).  Wilson is also 10-0 when facing Super Bowl-winning QBs in his career.

The Seahawks defense will be the big story of the game, and how they handle Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, and LeGarrette Blount.  Earl Thomas(shoulder) and Richard Sherman(elbow) were both injured in the NFC Championship game against the Green Bay Packers, but are expected to play.  Kam Chancellor bruised his knee during practice two days ago, but is also reportedly fine for the game.  On offense, look for Marshawn Lynch to try to control the game, and the Patriots will need to find an answer for him.

Seahawks once again head into the Super Bowl with the league's best defense. It was ranked first in points per game (15.9), first in yards per game (267.1), third in rushing yards per game (81.5) and first in passing yards per game (185.6).
