“They giving out the script already??” - NFL fans clown Madden 23’s official prediction for Super Bowl LVII

The Super Bowl is just around the corner and with the big game coming into focus, Madden 23 has released their prediction for the final Super Bowl score.

However, fans mostly side-stepped the purpose of the post and simply used it as an opportunity to make fun of the game.

Here's a look at what fans are saying:

Which team does Madden 23 predict to win Super Bowl LVII?

Andy Reid at AFC Championship - Cincinnati Bengals v Kansas City Chiefs

Every year, the game releases its prediction for the big game. However, unlike every other prediction released during the week, the game draws on itself to show its prediction instead of telling it. In the game, one has the ability to let an AI control each team.

Will the Kansas City Chiefs win the Super Bowl?

Meanwhile, players can simply sit back and watch both computers play against each other, creating a simulated football game. EA did this to simulate the Super Bowl and the results will make Chiefs advocates unhappy with the game. Patrick Mahomes was predicted to lose the big game by a score of 31-17.

Mahomes was predicted to complete 29 of 39 passes for 249 yards and a touchdown. Eagles receiver AJ Brown was predicted to have eight catches for 114 yards and a touchdown. Chiefs defender Chris Jones was predicted to have four tackles and two sacks in the contest. Eagles defender CJ Gardner-Johnson is expected to make five tackles and get an interception.

Of course, this is just a simulation and anything can happen in the actual game. Heading in, Mahomes hasn't thrown a pass and AJ Brown hasn't tallied a reception. However, both teams have plenty of factors working both for and against them.

Patrick Mahomes is coming off a high-ankle sprain that and is highly unlikely to be 100% fit for the game, despite the star quarterback getting plenty of rest. From a team perspective, the offense as a whole is under the weather. Juju Smith-Schuster, Mecole Hardman, and Kadarius Toney are all listed as questionable or worse, according to CBS Sports.

While the Chiefs are injury-ridden, the Eagles are nearly 100 percent. Jalen Hurts, while missing time during the regular season, is as close to a full-go as one can expect in his position.

One of the underlying sub-plots of the game will be Travis Kelce taking on his brother Jason Kelce in the first brotherly Super Bowl matchup in NFL history. The winner will have distinct bragging rights for the rest of his life.

Will Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce lead the Chiefs to victory or are the healthier Eagles set to prove Madden 23 correct?
