"Madden" Says the Rams Will Win the Super Bowl 30-27


Every year, EA Sports runs a simulated Super Bowl on the latest edition of “Madden”.  And it’s been right 10 of the last 15 years.  And in 2015, the game not only correctly predicted a Patriots win over the Seahawks, but it also nailed the final score, 28-24.

But last year it was WRONG.  The simulation had the Patriots narrowly defeating the Eagles 24-to-20 . . . but the Eagles won 41-33.

This year, “Madden” predicts the Patriots will go up 17-3 at the half . . . but the Rams will storm back to win the game, by a score of 30-27.  It also predicts Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald will be the MVP . . . after a record-breaking Super Bowl performance with four sacks.

For the past six years, the simulation has been right every other year, on the odd-numbered years.  That’s good news for the Rams.  For the record, New England is favored by 2.5, while the over-under on total number of points scored is 56.5.

“Madden” released a HYPE VIDEO with brief clips from the game, but the montage is so fast that they don’t actually show any full plays.  However, you do get to see Todd Gurley’s SOARING touchdown to win it.

“Variety” has a recap of what happened in the simulation…
