Are the Patriots lucky or good?

They, of course, don’t give a damn about that as they prepare to play Super Bowl LX against the Seahawks on Feb. 8, having gone from 4-13 in 2024 to 17-3 so far in 2025.

This, too, is true: Few pundits are giving the Patriots, 5 ½-point underdogs in Vegas, much of a chance to overcome the Seahawks.
