How often have you heard “It’s a week to week league” or “On any given Sunday…” No matter how it's described, the NFL is known for its unpredictability. Now with the 2021 schedule being released, the internet is filled with predictions on teams record, way too early playoff predictions, etc. You're probably asking, "Is this another one of those?" Well yes, but with a twist. This is every game predicted by a coin flip.
Here’s how it works. I went through the entire slate of NFL games for the 2021 season flipping a coin for each matchup. The Home team will always be “Heads.” There will be no bias or interference from preconceived thoughts on how well a team will perform this season. The results are strictly based on how the coin lands. (or in our case how the google algorithm decides a virtual coin flip on google )
Let's find out who fate decided will be the 2021 Super Bowl Champions

2021 Super Bowl Champion: Washington Football Team
So the coin says, the Washington Football Team will be hoisting the Lombardi Trophy this season. I know it's a long shot, but with their defense in 2021, it could become a reality. Just remember, a coin decided these results, it's NOT who I would have picked to win. If you're not happy with how your team did... blame google.
Hope you enjoyed this funny, unique & probably pointless exercise.
