WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT THE SUPER BOWL 53 MATCH-UP:
New England Patriots (-2.5) vs Los Angeles Rams (+2.5)
About the New England Patriots:
The Super Bowl is an all too familiar for Tom Brady and the Patriots. Their sustained greatness is unmatched in the NFL, but perhaps just as impressive is their drive. This time, their motivation will be the loss they had last year at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 52, when they were the heavy favorites. Brady and company are the favorites again. The Patriots booked their tickets to Atlanta by defeating the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round and surviving the Kansas City Chiefs in the conference title game.
The Patriots are 2-0 ATS in the playoffs
The Patriots are 3-1 ATS in non-conference games.
The Patriots are 8-4 ATS in games following a win.
Tom Brady has yet to be sacked in these playoffs.
The last time the Patriots scored a victory in Atlanta was six years ago in 2013, when they took down the Atlanta Falcons 30-23 at the Georgia Dome.
About the Los Angeles Rams:
By and large, the Rams were the best team in the NFL in the regular season. But when it comes to playoff success and experience, they can’t hold a candle to the Patriots. Having said that, the Rams are a talented team with elite talent on both ends of the field. Their offense is robust and always finds solutions, while their defense is powered by monsters in Aaron Donald and Ndamukong Suh in the front seven and the likes of Aqib Talib and Marcus Peters downfield. Will those be enough to take down the Patriots’ dynasty this coming Sunday?
The Rams are 2-0 ATS in the playoffs.
The Rams have covered the spread in the only game this season in which they were the underdogs.
The Rams are 7-6-1 ATS after a win.
Brandin Cooks has 1,522 receiving yards over the last three seasons, the second-most in the NFL over that span.
Sean McVay, who is set to become the youngest man to head coach a team in the Super Bowl, is an Atlanta native.
