Scoreless Quarter Is A Possibility

In the last 11 Super Bowls, there have been five quarters that have failed to produce a score.

This is the 60th Super Bowl, and in the previous 59, there has always been points scored in the second quarter. 

Could this be the first time the second quarter draws a blank?

Seahawks To Strike First?

Mike Macdonald will hope history strikes again for his Seahawks team.

In each of the last five Super Bowls, the team representing the NFC have found the end zone first.

Super Bowl First Touchdowns:

For good measure, Seattle has scored the opening touchdown in each of their two play-off games.

That includes Rashid Shaheed's 95-yard kick-off return to start their 41-6 rout of the San Francisco 49ers in the divisional round.

Fumbles Have Been An Issue

When the stakes are as high as they are in the play-offs, mistakes happen.

In the 12 games this postseason, there has been a total of 44 fumbles and 17 of those have turned possession over to the opposition.

2025 Play-Off Fumbles:

Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold led the league with 11 fumbles this season, losing six, while Patriots play-caller Drake Maye lost three of his nine fumbles. 

Panel Pick 3: 2+ Fumbles Lost - 7/4 With BetMGM

More Fourth Quarter Drama

In each of the last three Super Bowls, the fourth quarter has been the highest-scoring quarter. 

Last season, 22 points were scored in the final 15 minutes of regulation, 16 by the Kansas City Chiefs (16) but it wasn't enough to beat the Philadelphia Eagles.

This Season's Play-Off Points By Quarter:

In this season's play-offs, more points (181) have been scored in the fourth quarter (34.1%) than any other quarter. 

Panel Pick 4: Quarter 4 To Be The Highest Scoring Quarter - 17/10 With BetMGM
