14 DAY TRIAL // The development team at EA Sports has long used its simulation engines to predict the results of real world competitions, and before the two teams who will compete in the coming Super Bowl XLIX were decided, the studio showed that Madden NFL 15 believed Aaron Rodgers from the Green Bay Packers would throw for the most yards.
The studio explains that “Rodgers fought off a leg injury to lead the Packers to a dramatic win over the Cowboys last week. He threw for 189 yards in Green Bay's loss to Seattle in Week 1. You can get his MUT Football Outsiders edition for 321,000 Coins in the Auction House.”
Despite his solid performance in the virtual space, Rodgers will have to see the Super Bowl from the stands, as in the real world the title will be disputed by the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots, led by Russell Wilson and Tom Brady.
All four quarterbacks who were involved in matches this weekend are part of the Ultimate Team mode for Madden NFL 15 and gamers can use them to replicate history or rewrite it.
In the run-up to Super Bowl XLIX, the developers at EA Sports will deliver more content for the football sim and will also predict the final result of the biggest sporting event in the United States.
