How Seahawks took advantage of ‘classic young QB’ Drake Maye in mic’d up Super Bowl 2026 moment
NY Post
Drake Maye wasn’t quite seeing ghosts during Super Bowl 2026, but the Seahawks enjoyed playing games with the 23-year-old star.
“Classic young quarterback,” Julian Love said to fellow Seahawks defender Cobe Bryant in a mic’d-up conversation just before an interception that helped seal a 29-13 Super Bowl victory over the Patriots.
Love pointed out that Maye had a hitch in his step right before throws.
“As soon as that back foot hits, he’s going to where he wants, but he’s pausing for a second to confirm that [the receiver is] open,” Love, a former Giant, told Bryant.
“He’s not blindly doing it like (Matt) Stafford. There’s like a little hitch there. Be sure you jump that.”
That split-second hesitation that Love pointed out gives NFL defenders just enough time to adjust their reactions, something he was able to use against him to notch a fourth-quarter interception that thwarted a New England comeback attempt.
