Earl Thomas: 'It was a dominant performance'

Seattle Seahawks safety Earl Thomas has praised his side's "dominant" performance in last night's Super Bowl against the Denver Broncos.

In what was billed as the Seahawks' league-leading defense against the Broncos' record-breaking offense, there was only one winner as Seattle cruised to a 43-8 victory to pick up the Vince Lombardi trophy for the first time.

"It's all about making history. This was a dominant performance from top to bottom," Thomas told The AP.

The win capped off another good season for Thomas, who was voted as an All-Pro for the third consecutive year.
