SUPER BOWL LI

: Steelers over Cardinals. This time, it's Roethlisberger to Brown for the winning score.

: Cardinals over Patriots. The only thing Bruce Arians hasn't done with the Cardinals is win a championship. That will change this year.

: Panthers over Patriots. Last season's experience of helps Cam Newton put up an MVP-worthy performance in Carolina's win over New England in the first overtime game in history. For what it's worth, this will come 13 years after the Patriots beat the Panthers in XXXVIII -- when Newton was 14.

: Steelers over Cowboys. No surprise here. Steelers win their seventh Lombardi Trophy.

: Steelers over Panthers. gets his third ring as this offensive powerhouse is just too much for the Panthers' defense despite a strong effort by the Carolina front seven.

: Seahawks over Patriots. For the first time in six years, I'm not picking Packers over Patriots. Seattle is weirdly overdue for a second title during this incredibly consistent Pete Carroll era.

: Patriots over Cardinals ... or Cardinals over Patriots?? You tell me! A ton of good storylines here, with the Chandler Jones trade coming to mind. This is a toss-up for me.

: Cardinals over Patriots. The Cardinals and Patriots play one of the best Super Bowls ever (I can dream, right?) and Carson Palmer sheds his label as a rough playoff performer. Former Patriot Chandler Jones sacks Tom Brady in the fourth quarter to set up the go-ahead David Johnson touchdown.

: Patriots over Packers. Brady and company get the fifth ring!

: Seahawks over Patriots. Doesn't everybody want rematch?

: Patriots over Seahawks. Brady trashes the 21st century's greatest secondary for the second time in three years, putting to bed any debates about the best quarterback in ߣÏÈÉúAV history.

: Cardinals over Patriots. The Cards' defense plays well and strikes a blow against New England. Carson Palmer remains upright again. Bill Belichick vents his disappointment by cutting the sleeves off all the sweatshirts he can find.

: Patriots over Cardinals.Tom Brady will cement himself as the best player of all time.
