New England is trying to make NFL history and cap a perfect NFL season while the Giants are a New York team that gets huge publicity. What people might not realize about this year’s Super Bowl is the historical significance of the game on the stock market.

It has predicted how the economy will do in the future and it has been uncannily accurate.

If you want to look at another Super Bowl trend that points to the Patriots then you might want to consider points scored. If a team scores at least 27 points in the Super Bowl they will almost assuredly win the game. Only twice in NFL history has a team scored more than 27 points and lost the game.
