Very few people watch as much football as "NFL RedZone" host Scott Hanson. He has hosted the popular whiparound show since 2009, which features more than six consecutive hours of NFL games with limited commercial breaks every Sunday.

This season, Hanson's role has given him the chance to watch all 14 NFL playoff teams, from No. 1 seeds like the Denver Broncos (AFC) and Seattle Seahawks (NFC) to teams that sneaked into the postseason as division champions in Week 18 like the Pittsburgh Steelers and Carolina Panthers.

After digesting everything he saw in the 2025 regular season, Hanson made his prediction on which team will win Super Bowl LX.

He stayed away from the top seeds, landing on Matthew Stafford and the No. 5 seed Los Angeles Rams out of the NFC and Trevor Lawrence and the No. 3 seed Jacksonville Jaguars out of the AFC as the final matchup at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara on Feb. 8.

"Rams over Jags, book it," Hanson said confidently on "The Chubbies League Fantasy Football Show " alongside NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and former Super Bowl champion Emmanuel Sanders.

While Sanders was quick to suggest one of his former teams, the Broncos, would lift the Lombardi Trophy, Hanson's Rams prediction comes from a more neutral perspective after his years of experience on the "NFL RedZone" desk.

"People don't believe me when I tell them that I don't have a favorite team, but it's true," Hanson once said of his NFL fandom. "I love the game, pure and simple."

For his Super Bowl prediction to come true, both teams will have to win this weekend in the wild-card round. The Rams are first up against Bryce Young and the No. 4 seed Panthers at 4:30 p.m. ET Saturday on Fox. The Jaguars host Josh Allen and the No. 6 seed Buffalo Bills at 1 p.m. Sunday on CBS.
