The Patriots franchise returned for its NFL-record 12th Super Bowl appearance as the first team to reach the big game after a 13-plus loss season. (New England went 4-13 in 2024.) The Seahawks broke through for their fourth Super Bowl appearance and first since Super Bowl XLIX against the Patriots in 2014.

The Rams and Seahawks split their regular-season series, with each team winning a close game at home. NFL MVP favorite Matthew Stafford is seeking his second trip to the Super Bowl, while the Seahawks are looking to return there for the first time in 11 years.

Big Ben is the youngest QB to win the Super Bowl, having done so in 2006 when the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Seattle Seahawks 21-10. Roethlisberger was just 23 years, 11 months and three days old in the win, making him the only signal caller that age to hoist the Lombardi...so far.

Tom Brady had a classy message for his former team during the NFC championship game.

A new trailer for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie has been released, spotlighting the debut of Yoshi and a new release date that is two days earlier than previously announced. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie will be released in United States theaters this spring.
