Today, I was feeling froggy so I wanted to start with my prediction and then explain after. I predict the final score of the New England Patriots vs. the Los Angeles Rams to be 31-20 in favor of the New England Patriots… and here’s why.
1) Bill Belichick and Tom Brady together have won 5 Super Bowls and been to 8. This is Goff’s 3rd year in the league, and McVay’s 2nd. Their combined years don’t even add up to the Super Bowl appearances of this New England team. Bill’s experience is going to outshine every other aspect like it did last week. Bill is going to attack the corners, run the ball, and control the clock and they will do it to success. You cannot expect anything less.
2) Last week, the Rams merely squeaked by the Saints. The Rams started off flat, not scoring in the first quarter, and didn’t show any promise on the ground with C.J Anderson gaining 44 yards on 16 carries and their All-Pro running back Todd Gurley only rushing for 10 yards on 4 carries. If the Rams expect to be able to pass the ball without opening up anything else, they are in for a surprise. Belichick prides himself in his front 7 and with players in his secondary like McCourtey and Gilmore, they are going to shut down the Rams offense.
All in all, this will be a domination of a game and the entirety of America will be in an uproar when Tom Brady wins another championship all thanks to Bill Belichick.
