Electronic Arts announced its annual Super Bowl simulation in Madden NFL 16 on Monday. How favorable? Try 9 out of 12. The final score? That would be 24-20.
So while EA has a history of accurately pegging the Super Bowl victor, Broncos fans can take solace in the fact two years ago, EA predicted Denver would beat the Seattle Seahawks, 31-28, in Super Bowl XLVIII.
Julian Edelman scoring the game-winning touchdown pass and Edelman finishing as the Patriots’ top receive with eight catches for 106 yards (Edelman ended the Super Bowl with nine catches for 109 yards). Will Madden NFL 16 be equally as accurate? The Panthers will face the Denver Broncos in the championship game at Levi’s Stadium.

Safety is the number one concern for the Super Bowl events. The Broncos were supposed to get the other end zone because they are the home team for the Super Bowl.
