EA Sports, owner of the Madden video game franchise, is 9-3 in its Super Bowl predictions. Not bad, right? Last year, the video game giant picked the Patriots in their simulation and sure enough, the Patriots won. What was even weirder was:

  • In the Madden sim, the final score was 28-24 which was the actual final score
  • Madden predicted Brady would win MVP (which he was)
  • It also predicted Brady would throw for 335 yards and 4 TD's (He actually threw for 328 yards and 4 TD's. Madden missed it by 7 yards)
  • Madden also predicted New England would trail 24-14 in the third quarter before staging a comeback.
  • And that Brady would throw a game-winning touchdown pass to wide receiver Julian Edelman
  • Not only that but Madden predicted that Edelman would be the Patriots top receiver with 8 catches for 108 yards and he actually ended up with 9 catches for 109 yards

Pretty weird, right!?

So who does Madden say will win Super Bowl 50.

Carolina. 24-20 over the Broncos. Sorry to rain on your parade, Peyton, but EA Sports doesn't think you're going to win the big game and ride off into the sunset...
