I'm surprised that nobody had posted this yet but since nobody else did here goes............
Predict the winner of the Super Bowl. You can add the prediction of the score as well if you so choose and your reasoning for your prediction also if you so choose.
I'm predicting the Seahawks will win. But it's not as easy for me to predict as I first thought it would be.
The Patriots defense is considered a top-10 unit, finishing the season allowing 18.8 points per game (4th best) and ranking 8th in total defense (295.2 yards per game). They are particularly strong against the pass, with some metrics ranking their pass defense 9th (193.5 yards allowed.
The Patriots finished the regular season ranked 3rd in total offense, averaging 379.4 yards per game. They also ranked 2nd in scoring with 28.8 points per game and 4th in passing offense (250.5 yards per game).
I will say that new England's schedule was somewhat weak so I'm allowing for that.
The Seahawks were the #1 ranked overall defense in DVOA and the top-ranked scoring defense (17.2 points per game). Under Mike Macdonald, they lead the league in several key metrics, including 3rd-down conversions (32.05%) and overall defensive efficiency entering the Super Bowl.
The Seahawks averaged 28.4 points per game, ranking as a top-three scoring offense in the league. They finished as the 7th ranked offense in terms of yards per game (351.4) in 2025.
The only places I feel the Seahawks have an advantage an advantage is by having a more experienced QB and more dynamic big play makers.
So I'm going with......
Seahawks 27
Patriots 20
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

I predict as in years past, I don’t watch it. It isn’t even for the fans anymore. What does a ticket even cost anymore?

I haven't been subtle of what I think about the Patriots. I think Seattle smothers their O from the opening kick, and it gets ugly after the half. I think Darnold gets pulled and the backup gets a few drives in the 4th, along with the victory formation.

I can't blame the NFL because wages didn't keep up with ticket prices. NFL games sell out every week. The SB sells out every year. Being an NFL fan I watch games every week and the SB every year.

I'm rooting for the Seahawks.
I want to see Sam Darnold get the win.

I hate Boston’s sports teams, their [censored] fans, the city and the media. I said before the game started that Seattle’s defence would control the game and they’d win by 10/plus, their D is just so dominant. But NE’s D can keep things tight.
