The biggest game of the 2016-17 NFL season is nearly here. On Sunday, the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots will take the field for Super Bowl LI.
This promises to be an exciting game between the league's top offense and top defense from the regular season. The Falcons averaged an NFL-best 33.8 points per game in 2016, while the Patriots defense allowed a league-low 15.6 points per game.
Of course, the game itself isn't the only bit of entertainment coming to NRG Stadium on Sunday. Country music star Luke Bryan will sing the national anthem, and Lady Gaga is set for what should be a riveting halftime performance.
