'Madden' sim predicts Denver Broncos will win Super Bowl

[El Supremo]

USA TODAY - If a video game simulation of Super Bowl XLVIII is correct, "The 12th Man" will have a disappointing Sunday.

Electronic Arts ran its annual simulation of the Super Bowl through football video game Madden NFL 25, and it has the Denver Broncos topping the Seattle Seahawks 31-28.

According to the simulation, the Seahawks jump out to an early lead off an interception by Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman before Broncos' QB Peyton Manning leads his team on two scoring drives to take a 21-10 advantage. The Seahawks force the game into overtime, but the Broncos claim victory on a Matt Prater field goal.

Watch EA's recap of Super Bowl XLVIII below:

Before you dismiss EA's Madden NFL simulation, keep in mind this formula has resulted in an 8-2 record.

1. Interesting prediction

I like Denver also,

Weird that the simulation has no field goals for Denver until OT but Seattle has two and a two point conversion.

Both teams have pretty good kickers.

2. They're going to...

Richard Sherman is going to be a major distraction...they'll wish they had cut him before this is all over...

3. "they'll wish they had cut him"?

You really hate Sherman, don't you?

4. I know a troublemaker when I see one...

I can just see the storyline when he sucks big-time come Sunday, those assholes at ESPN will all be about how this is a "learning experience" for him...just call him a dick and get it over with!
