Tom Brady: “It was an unbelievable year” 10:13 p.m. – The New England Patriots’ quarterback Tom Brady told CBS Tracy Wolfson that his Super Bowl victory was a “dream come true.” “It was an unbelievable year,” Brady said on field immediately following the Patriots’ win over the Rams. “We fought through it more so than anything.” Brady complimented the Patriots’ defense, saying they played “the best game of the year.” Tom Brady’s postgame interview with @tracywolfson on @NFLonCBS pic.twitter.com/FMlfg5wEMK — New England Patriots (@Patriots) February 4, 2019 Lowest scoring Super Bowl game in history 10:08 p.m. – Super Bowl LIII was the lowest-scoring championship game ever at 13-3. The previous record holder was the 1971 Super Bowl that finished in a 14-7 win for the Miami Dolphins. The New England Patriots defeat the Los Angeles Rams 10:04 p.m. – The 17 year challenge: In 2002, the Patriots beat the then-St. Louis Rams in the Super Bowl for the first championship under Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. Now in 2019, the Patriots duo have secured their sixth championship, beating the Los Angeles Rams. New England is now in a tie with the Pittsburgh Steelers for the most titles all time. Tom Brady cements his place as the winningest Super Bowl quarterback with six rings but also becomes the oldest to win a championship, passing the then 39-year-old Peyton Manning by two years. Bill Belichick also becomes the oldest coach to win, just a year older than Tom Coughlin who won his last Super Bowl at age 65. #17YearChallenge pic.twitter.com/1Vu7ztqgdC — NFL on CBS 🏈 (@NFLonCBS) February 4, 2019
