Super Bowl LI



Super Bowl LI is looking to be one of the most historic Super Bowls yet.

With the anticipated game of the year coming up in a few hours, the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots are preparing for the game of their lives.

Atlanta Falcons' quarterback, Matt Ryan, has recently been named the NFL MVP for the first time in his career, making the stakes higher than ever. According to Bleacher Report, no player who has won the regular-season award has also taken the Super Bowl award in the same season since Kurt Warner of the St. Louis Rams did it 17 years ago. Ryan's opponent, Tom Brady, has is included in this statistic, losing twice in the Super Bowl despite winning the MVP himself.

This is also Ryan's first appearance in a Super Bowl, while this year will be Brady's sixth appearance.


Brady's past Super Bowls have been widely controversial, however.

From "spy gate" to "deflate gate", Brady and the Patriots have been labeled "cheaters" all their careers since the incidents, with the most recent one affecting Brady's 2016-2017 season directly. He was suspended for the first four games of this NFL season, yet the Patriots still found success.

Brady is currently tied for the most Super Bowl rings among quarterbacks with four — winning tonight will put him above all QB's with five.

The odds may be looking to be against the Falcons, however they have one monstrous weapon that the Patriots do not: Julio Jones. The wide receiver, known for making outrageous Besides having arguably the most talented receiver in the game, Ryan has also set an NFL single-season record by throwing TD passes to 13 different players, five of those players being tight ends.

One of the biggest stats that stands out for this Super Bowl may be the fact that the Atlanta Falcons are ranked first when it comes to offense in the NFL, whereas the Patriots are ranked first for defense. This type of match-up is sure to be one for the books.

So, who ya got?
