Patriots (Drew)
Super Bowl LI will be played in Houston, Texas on February 5. Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady and Head Coach Bill Belichick will be competing in their record-setting seventh super bowl together. The Patriots have been a title contender every year with these two and will look to capture yet another Super Bowl. The Patriots have been dominant in the 2016-17 season and have not failed to impress, their success continuing into the playoffs with two wins over the Texans and Steelers. Tom Brady has continued his dominance this season, including a 28-2 touchdown to interception ratio. Look for the Pats to knock off the Falcons in this year’s Super Bowl, as their schemes on both sides of the ball look to be just too much for Atlanta. Nobody has had an answer for them all year long. The combination of coaching and finding the right guys for the job is what will lead the Patriots to a victory.
Falcons (Thomas)
The Falcons have the best chance to win the Super Bowl this year. They have Matt Ryan, the league's best quarterback. The Falcons have not committed a turnover all postseason, and that is very key to winning football games. They are 11 and 5 in the regular season, winning their division. They are on a winning streak, defeating their last 6 opponents and dominating the NFC Championship Game against Green Bay. Even though they have only been to the Super Bowl one time, they have very experienced players and a large amount of momentum from their current winning streak that will lead them to a victory on February 5.
