Senior editor of FHM Magazine Nick Dimengo breaks down the Super Bowl matchup. He also explains the "Brady Effect" and whether or not "Patriots Fatigue" is a real thing.
Dimengo says ratings have been down slightly throughout the playoffs, but not to any substantial degree. He thinks Super Bowl ratings will hold steady, but would have seen a dip if the Jaguars beat the Patriots.
Dimengo explains both the Eagles and Patriots have huge fan bases that will be tuning in for the big game. And love him or hate him, Tom Brady always draws big ratings. Dimengo also breaks down the fun prop bets like how often Brady's hand injury will be mentioned, the color of Gatorade that will be dumped on the winning coach's head, or if Justin Timberlake's 2004 halftime show debacle with Janet Jackson will come up.
