Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte Drops Truth Bomb On Seahawks’ Dominant Defense
'I wouldn't discredit that'
The Patriots came up short, losing 29-13 to the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX on Sunday. However, wide receiver Kayshon Boutte believes New England missed out on numerous opportunities throughout the game.
“I said they played well, I wouldn’t discredit that,” Boutte said on Sunday after a reporter asked what made Seattle’s defense so good. “But I think as an offense we left opportunities out there too, as I said, they did everything we expected them to do, we just didn’t execute.”
Seattle’s defense did an excellent job of keeping New England in check for most of the game, holding it scoreless until the fourth quarter.
Boutte had a challenging night, finishing with just one catch on five targets for a total of 21 yards. A significant factor in Boutte’s struggles was quarterback Drake Maye, who also had a difficult game, turning the ball over three times — two interceptions and a fumble.
New England’s offensive line also played a significant role in the offense’s inability to move the ball, leading to Maye being sacked six times.
The Patriots struggled to find their rhythm until late in the game, but by then, they were too far behind on the scoreboard to mount a comeback.
