OUTCOME
CONFIRMED FALSENew England won the game 28-24, defeating Baltimore on a late 89-yard touchdown drive — the exact opposite of what Parkins predicted. Baltimore's rushing attack did show up (Derrick Henry finished with 128 yards and 2 TDs on 18 carries), but it fell short of the 150-yard TRUE threshold and Baltimore lost by 4, well within the 7-point FALSE threshold. Lamar Jackson also left with a back injury in the second quarter, further complicating the matchup.
