EA’s Madden NFL 23 Officially Predicts Super Bowl 57 Winner
EA has once again made its official prediction for the winner of Super Bowl 57 after simulating the game in Madden NFL 23.
Revealed in a new trailer starring the Cincinnati Bengals’ Chad Johnson, EA has predicted that the Philadelphia Eagles will overcome the Kansas City Chiefs in this year’s Super Bowl.
Anticipating a final score of 31 to 17 in favour of the Eagles, Madden NFL 23 also predicted specific stats for the teams’ stars. In the simulation, Pat Mahomes had 29/39 completions and one touchdown, A.J. Brown had eight catches and one touchdown, Chris Jones had four tackles and two sacks, and C.J. Gardner-Johnson had five tackles and one interception.
Fans should take the prediction with a pinch of salt, however, as Madden NFL hasn’t always been accurate in its simulations. The last ten years have seen it proved wrong 60% of the time, though it did perfectly anticipate the New England Patriots’ 28 to 24 victory over the Seattle Seahawks in 2015.
It was wrong last year (though admittedly not by much), predicting a 24 to 21 Cincinnati Bengals victory over the Los Angeles Rams in a game where the Rams beat the Bengals 23 to 20.
In our 7/10 review of EA’s latest, IGN said: “After playing Madden NFL 23 I finally have a little optimism that the series is on the right path — maybe not an emphatic ‘Boom!’, but clear forward progress for a series that so desperately needs it.”
