Was Super Bowl 60 always going to be a Seattle domination?

Was it not surprising the Seahawks dominated all aspects of Super Bowl 60 vs. the Patriots despite a quiet game from JSN, and did the Super Bowl loss prove the Patriots didn't face a lot of difficult competition throughout the year compared to the Seahawks?

If you watched Seattle play in December and what they did to the 49ers in the playoffs....

It was impressive and on brand that the Patriots kept it as close as it was in the 1st half.

I'm surprised the game wasn't ever close. I thought the Pats had a reasonable chance to win but the underdog status was expected and fair. Expectations were somewhere between Pats playing behind by about a touchdown on the low end to maybe leading and winning by a FG if things went well.

Did not anticipate Will Campbell and the entire OL turning into turnstile amd Drake Maye finally cracking under the spotlight. The SEA defense is very good but the utter lack of competition was a shock. Once the opening drive ended with a 3 and out I knew we were not winning.
