Seattle won last year's Super Bowl by a score of 43-8, a winning margin of 35 points.
New England has three Super Bowl titles...won by a combined total of 9 points. (A field goal victory each time - 20-17 over the Rams, 32-29 over Carolina, and 24-21 over Philadelphia.)
If you count wins AND losses, Seattle's SMALLEST margin was 11 points, in a loss to Pittsburgh (21-10) in 2006.
Meanwhile, in the Belechick era, the LARGEST margin in any of their FIVE Super Bowls was 4 points, when the Giants beat them 21-17 in a game that every Pats fan has beaten out of their memory for sanity's sake.
(Of course, if you go back pre-Belechick, there WAS that one time in 1986, when Da Bears beat the Pats 46-10, in a game that wasn't even THAT close...)
