ATLANTA -- So much for a shootout in Super Bowl LIII.
The New England Patriots took a 3-0 lead over the Los Angeles Rams into halftime, as the teams combined for the second-lowest scoring half in Super Bowl history on Sunday night.
The lowest scoring half came in Super Bowl IX, when the Pittsburgh Steelers and Minnesota Vikings combined for two points.
Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was uncharacteristically shaky, going 15-of-25 for 160 yards, while throwing an interception on his first pass attempt. Rams quarterback Jared Goff also struggled, completing 5-of-12 passes for 52 yards.
