What the Patriots bring to the table—
They bring experience and a whole lot of it. This Tom Brady led Patriots team is now making their 9th appearance in the Super Bowl and the point spread favors them once again.

The Patriots are allowing 20 points per game this season and the Rams come in allowing 24. The kicker to this number is the offense. The Patriots are scoring 27 points per game against 32 for the Rams. Can the Patriots slow the Rams down?

They won’t need to slow the Rams down. They have a rushing offense that puts up 127 yards per game and the Rams are allowing 112 yards on the ground. With a rushing attack such as the Patriots have, coupled with the best quarterback to ever play the game; the Patriots should be the favorites.
What about Jared Goff?
It’s a great question. He has put together a great year with more than 4,000 yards passing and 32 touchdowns along with 12 interceptions. He is good, very good. This is his first Super Bowl appearance and for the 4th year player from Cal, this is his moment. How will he do. He will be nervous from the onset but that will quickly fade and as he sets in, he will be fine. The problem is not that he won’t be fine, the problem is the Patriots linebacking core will give him big problems and force him into mistakes. Think the Patriots can’t score beyond their average of 27 points per game? Think again, ask the Kansas City Chiefs how many points they can score! They scored 43 against the Chiefs in Boston and then 37 against the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game, in Kansas City.
The Bottom Line—
The Point spread in this one is close and this game is no doubt going to be close but in the end, the Patriots have the experience and know-how to get the job done. They did it on the road in a hostile environment in Arrowhead stadium and they will most likely beat that 2 ½ point spread in Atlanta. Enjoy the game and win big. Beat the bookie this Super Bowl.
