We are only one day away from the 2015 Super Bowl, and its looking like it is going to be a great one. In Super Bowl’s the craziest things can happen, like surprise onside kicks to open the second half. I am going to give five bold predictions that I think will occur.Here they are:
1. Rob Gronkowski will have under 50 receiving yards
Some people may consider this a not very bold prediction, but if you look at the numbers, Gronk has only been held under 50 yards twice since week five. One of those two times was against the Colts in the AFC Championship, where he really didn’t need to do much because the game was already basically over.
I think the Seahawks are going to play Gronk very effectively. They have two defensive backs that are 6″3″ and Byron Maxwell is 6″1″ which takes away Gronk’s size advantage. With Chancellor probably on him most of the game, I think Gronk will struggle to find openings, but I do I think he will find the end zone.
Next: Who will lead the Seahawks in receptions?
