If this game is any indication of what is to come on Sunday, then we’ve got one of the great Super Bowls in history coming.

I honestly don’t have a dog in the fight that is Super Bowl LI, the Falcons and Patriots gives me a chance to watch the game as a fan for the first time in a while. Now, who will I pick? Well, after trying to figure this out for the last week I’ve come up with my answer. I’m letting Madden 17 decided my pick.

This can only end terribly right? Well, here we go…. *fires up Xbox One*

1st Quarter

-Patriots put together a solid first drive of the game but the Falcons force the Patriots to kick a short field goals after failing to get in the end zone. (Patriots 3-0)

–Falcons get deep into New England territory after a solid run from Devonta Freeman and he ends up capping off the drive for the first TD of Super Bowl LI from one yard out. (Falcons 7-3)

Patriots having success with the run and pass in the first quarter, Blount is becoming a huge problem and Brady finished the first quarter converting 7-of-8 pass attempts for 70 yards. The first stanza of Super Bowl LI ends with the Patriots at the 1-yard line of the Atlanta Falcons.
