Superbowl XLIX Projection, Championship Sunday

Seattle over New England

This has been the matchup I've projected as most likely since Week 15, when Seattle won and Green Bay lost to hand the NFC lead to Seattle, based on strength and tiebreakers. New England has been the AFC favorite since Week 11, and were projected as the Superbowl winners until Seattle overtook them in Week 16. For the second year in a row, the 2 strongest teams based on Points For and Points Allowed have made the playoffs. These certainly weren't my favorite teams in the playoffs this year, but I'll still enjoy the Superbowl. I'll root for Seattle to repeat, because I can't root for the Patriots.
