Seahawks vrs Pats under 21.5 1stt Half
The full-game total for Super Bowl LX has settled around 45.5 points, with the first-half total priced in the 21.5-22.5 range at most sportsbooks. Based on matchup dynamics, weather, and game-script tendencies, the First Half Under stands out as a high-probability angle.
Seattle finished the season with the NFL’s top scoring defense, while New England ranked in the top five. Both teams excel at limiting explosive plays and forcing long, methodical drives. In Super Bowl settings, that profile typically suppresses early scoring as offenses probe and adjust.
Historically, Super Bowl first halves skew conservative. Expect:

1. Elite Defenses = Slow Early Scoring

2. Conservative Opening Scripts
Historically, Super Bowl first halves skew conservative. Expect:
- Heavy run usage from Kenneth Walker III (SEA) and Rhamondre Stevenson (NE)
- Short passing concepts to minimize turnover risk
- Fewer fourth-down gambles early
This favors clock bleed and limits total possessions before halftime.
3. Weather and Field Conditions
Forecasts for Levi’s Stadium call for wind and possible precipitation, which tends to:
- Reduce downfield passing efficiency
- Increase reliance on the run game
- Lower red-zone touchdown rates (more field goals or stalled drives)
Weather has already pushed the market toward the full-game under, and that impact is typically strongest in the first half before teams adjust.
