It wasn’t just a sack—it was the sixth time the Seahawks brought Maye down, a relentless assault that suffocated any hope of a Patriots comeback.
Murphy didn’t just tackle Maye. He swallowed him whole, wrapping up the young QB like a predator claiming its prey. The crowd erupted as the Seahawks defense continued their historic domination in a 29-13 rout.
