Score Prediction Breakdown

It's the individual matchups that will determine the outcome of Super Bowl LIII. The proverbial chess game between head coaches Bill Belichick and Sean McVay is going to be exciting, but the team that wins the most on-field battles is the one that will prevail.

There are two big matchups that will be most key to this game. The first will be New England's ability to run the ball against the Rams' defensive front. The Patriots have leaned heavily on the run this season—especially in the playoffs—and it's helped to control the tempo of games and to keep quarterback Tom Brady off his back.

In New England's two postseason outings, the offense rushed for 331 yards. Brady was not sacked in those games.

The run game is going to be critical once again in this game. The Patriots will want to keep Los Angeles' explosive offense off the field, and they're going to want to neutralize the interior pass rush of Aaron Donald and Ndamukong Suh.

While running straight at Donald and Suh may seem counter-intuitive, it's actually worked for opposing offenses most of the year.

During the regular season, the Rams allowed an average of 122.3 yards rushing (23rd in the NFL) and 24.0 points (20th) per game.

New England has shown the ability to dominate on the ground—only four teams rushed for more yards in the regular season—and that will give them a big edge in Super Bowl LIII.

The other matchup we're placing a lot of weight on is the battle between New England's cornerbacks and the Rams receivers. The Patriots play mostly man coverage, and that can make things difficult on Rams quarterback Jared Goff. He won't be able to predetermine where he's going with the ball against the zone.

This plan only works if Jason McCourty, Jonathan Joseph, Stephon Gilmore and the rest of the Patriots cornerbacks can win their one-on-one matchups with the Rams receivers. This is a matchup that could go either way, especially since Rams receiver Brandin Cooks has intimate knowledge of New England's defense from his season with them.

"There's a lot of great things that are coming out of there that I learned—too much to probably just sit here and talk about," Cooks said, via the Rams' official website.

If the Patriots are forced to switch to the zone or to start doubling Cooks or Robert Woods on every play, it's going to be extremely difficult for New England's front seven to clamp down on Todd Gurley, C.J. Anderson and the running game.

We're expecting the Patriots defense to do just enough—like it did against the Kansas City Chiefs—to win a close one.
