The MMQB’s Super Bowl 52 Picks

Patriots 23, Eagles 20

MVP: Tom Brady

Man, I hate my pick to be boring. I am picking the Patriots’ eighth Super Bowl out of eight this century to be decided by less than a touchdown. With apologies to my friend Dan Shaughnessy, this is not going to be another Tomato Can Super Bowl—the Eagles will be rough and ready and a significant roadblock for the sports dynasty of this generation. But the stage will get to somebody on the first-timers at some point, and Brady will pounce on the opportunity.

Patriots 27, Eagles 17

MVP: Tom Brady

The Eagles are exactly the kind of team that could beat the Pats in the Super Bowl: confident, loose, fearless.
