The US Football History of Seattle Seahawks Seattle Times Edition Book

THE BRONCOS can’t get anything going. Russell Wilson manages the offense flawlessly, Marshawn Lynch pounds the line, and the Legion of Boom swarms every receiver. The scoreboard keeps ticking: 22 – 0, 36 – 0 … the game is slipping away from Denver. Then … the final whistle, and it’s over! The Seattle Seahawks have crushed the Broncos 43 – 8 in Super Bowl XLVIII. After 40 years of chasing it, Seattle claims its first Lombardi Trophy.
