Peter Schrager, the ESPN analyst known for his uncanny ability to predict the Super Bowl winner, has seen his impressive streak come to an end. After correctly picking the Super Bowl champion for five straight years from 2019 to 2023, Schrager’s streak was broken last year when he predicted the Kansas City Chiefs would beat the Green Bay Packers, only to see the Philadelphia Eagles win 40-22. Schrager’s 2026 pick of the Buffalo Bills beating the Philadelphia Eagles also missed the mark, as the Bills were eliminated in the Divisional Round and the Eagles lost in the wild-card round.

Why it matters

Schrager’s Super Bowl pick streak had become a source of fascination for NFL fans, with many eagerly anticipating his annual prediction. The end of this streak marks the conclusion of an era and raises questions about whether Schrager can regain his predictive prowess in the future.

The details

From 2019 to 2023, Schrager correctly predicted the Super Bowl winner each year, including three victories for the Kansas City Chiefs and one each for the Los Angeles Rams and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, his streak was broken last year when he picked the Chiefs to beat the Packers, only to see the Eagles win. Schrager’s 2026 pick of the Bills beating the Eagles also missed the mark, as both teams suffered early playoff exits.

• Schrager’s streak ran from 2019 to 2023.
• Schrager’s streak was broken in 2025 when he picked the Chiefs to beat the Packers.
• Schrager’s 2026 pick of the Bills beating the Eagles also missed the mark.

What’s next

With the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl 60, Schrager’s streak is now heading in the opposite direction. Only one more game until the 2027 season, giving Schrager an opportunity to right the ship.
