Super Bowl Sunday is upon us and in anticipation of the big game between the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles, we ran our own simulation between these two teams in Madden NFL 18. We set the stage for our own Super Bowl LII matchup taking place in Minneapolis, Minnesota with full 15 minute quarters and updated rosters. In the video above, we cut down to the biggest plays and highlights for your viewing pleasure and call the plays from our booth.
Since we wanted to get a somewhat accurate prediction, we used current player rosters for both teams, so Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz had to sit this one out, just like in the real world. However, former Eagles starting QB Nick Foles has been able to use his experience to lead the team through the playoffs, but is now challenged against this strong Patriots defense. However, Tom Brady and the Patriots offense need to face the NFL's second-ranked defense in the Eagles, so this won't be a walk in the park for the five-time Super Bowl champion QB.
