Usually, President Obama makes his Super Bowl prediction when the matchup is already set. But, things are changing in the Oval Office.
For the first time in eight years, Obama won't be the President when the Super Bowl champions visit the White House. As his presidency draws to a close, he's quite busy giving speeches on the campaign trail, but he still has time to talk football.
Last Friday, the POTUS appeared on Sway in the Morning on SiriusXM Radio. He discussed a number of topics, including which teams are likely to play in Houston on February 5th.
He wasn't exactly bold with his selections.
“Super Bowl is tougher (to pick). But I got to say at this point, you'd have to put your money on Brady again. I don't see any real strong teams. Seattle and (the) Patriots have a rematch, that's my call.”
Choosing New England and Seattle might be the easy way out, but they do have some threats. Both the Raiders and Broncos will pose challenges to the Patriots in the AFC. In the NFC, the Cowboys and Vikings shouldn't be taken lightly either.
At the end of the day, picking against Brady and the Legion of Boom isn't usually a good idea, though.
