Okay, so we know what you’re thinking. If you run 10,000,000 simulations of the NFL season, one of them is bound to get something right.

However, in this case, it’s one of the most highly publicized simulations of this year’s Madden 17 may have made the ultimate underdog pick. Many people gripe about the predictable NFL postseason, and they may have had a point this season if not for the Atlanta Falcons.

You look at NFL.com’s preseason picks for the Super Bowl, every single one of the experts picked at least one of Green Bay, New England or Pittsburgh to play in the Super Bowl.

Not this simulation from CBS though:

They didn’t get much else right simulation, but they have the Falcons in the Super Bowl when very few other people did and even went one step further, predicting that they would win the whole thing. Then it also predicted that Tom Brady would retire after this season, so they were going all out with the hot takes in this one.

We’ll tell you what though, with the way Atlanta Falcons fans were celebrating, it seems like there was never a doubt in their mind.
