Gregg Rosenthal · Jan 23, 2026

Rosenthal picks the Patriots to beat the Broncos in a close, low-scoring AFC Championship in Denver (while liking Denver to cover the 4.5 points), takes the Seahawks over the Rams in a defensive NFC Championship he pegs around 23-19, and forecasts a Patriots-Seahawks Super Bowl.

That's my prediction for the Super Bowl this year.

Each one is scored on its own against the published methodology. A pundit naming several outcomes is graded on each, not on all-or-nothing.

    I think the Patriots are going to play nearer their best and then that results in a two or three point win. Like, I think that's kind of the outcome here.

    And I am taking the Seahawks. I hate doing that, but this is my official one.

    Not settled yet. This is graded once the season it describes has finished.
