Super Bowl XLIX: Five Keys To Victory

2) Sack Tom Brady 3+ Times

In New England’s four losses, they have given up an average of three sacks per game, compared to just 1.2 sacks allowed in 14 wins.

Also, Brady has been sacked just three times in his three Super Bowl wins, and seven times in his two Super Bowl losses.

For Seattle, the current eight-game winning-streak unsurprisingly correlates with the pass-rush picking up. In the first 10 games of the season they managed only 1.3 sacks per game, while they have brought down opposing quarterbacks 3.4 times per game in the past eight.
