The New England Patriots won Super Bowl LIII Sunday night in Atlanta, defeating the Los Angeles Rams 13-3.

Led by quarterback Tom Brady, this is the Patriots' sixth Super Bowl title. The first touchdown of the game didn't come until the fourth quarter, courtesy of the Patriots' Sony Michel. The Rams did make and tie a few Super Bowl records on Sunday night: punter Johnny Hekker kicked the longest punt in Super Bowl history, at 65 yards, and the Rams tied the record for fewest points by a team in the championship game.
