Super Bowl LX Set: Seahawks Outgun Rams, Patriots Survive Snow in Denver

Sam Darnold throws 3 TDs to lead Seattle, while New England wins a defensive slugfest. Plus: Why Puka Nacua is the Dynasty WR1 even in a loss.

NFC Championship: Seahawks 31, Rams 27

The Shootout We Were Promised Sam Darnold (346 yds, 3 TDs) outdueled Matthew Stafford in a classic. The Rams led late, but Kenneth Walker III punched in the game-winner with 1:12 left.

Dynasty Fallers & Risers

  • RISER: Puka Nacua (LAR): Even in a loss, he was unstoppable (9 rec, 165 yds, 1 TD). He proved he is QB-proof, matchup-proof, and game-script proof. If you can trade the 1.01 for him in Dynasty, do it. He is the WR1 overall.
  • RISER: Sam Darnold (SEA): From "bridge QB" to Super Bowl starter. His Dynasty value is now firmly in the QB2 range. Don't sell yet; let the Super Bowl hype build.
  • FALLER: Kyren Williams (LAR): Held to 3.2 YPC. The Rams OL injuries finally caught up. He is a sell-high candidate this offseason before the Rams inevitably draft competition.

AFC Championship: Patriots 10, Broncos 7

Snow Bowl Survival It wasn't pretty, but it was affective. In heavy snow at Mile High, the Patriots defense suffocated Jarrett Stidham (2 INTs).

Drake Maye: The Difference Maker Maye didn't light up the box score passing (86 yds), but his 6-yard rushing TD was the only touchdown of the game for New England.

  • Fantasy Takeaway: This is exactly what you want in a fantasy QB. When passing is impossible (weather), he has the legs to score points. Konami Code confirmed.

Broncos Post-Mortem

  • Bo Nix: We missed him. The offense looked lost. Buy low on all Broncos pass catchers (Sutton, Mims, Franklin) now that the value is suppressed by this ugly finish. They will bounce back with Nix in 2026.
