EA Sports Madden NFL 19 has predicted the winner of Super Bowl LIII.
The Los Angeles Rams defeated the New England Patriots 30-27, blocking the New England Patriots from winning their sixth Super Bowl. This would also give the Patriots two Super Bowl losses in a row. Aaron Donald took him the Super Bowl LIII MVP with a record-breaking four QB sacks.
The Patriots would lead the Rams 17-3 at halftime, but the Rams offense would torch the Patriots defense for 27 points in the final two frames, bringing the LA Rams their second Super Bowl Championship.
The Patriots offense would start the game off on fire with rookie running back Sony Michel scoring the first touchdown of the night on a 3-yard rush. Up 7-0, Brady would hit Edelman for the Patriots second touchdown and end the first half with a Stephen Gostkowski 42 yard field goal. Greg Zuerlein would get the Rams on the board with a 38-yard field goal.
The second half was all Los Angeles. Jared Goff would come alive with a 46-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Robert Woods and later a 26-yard pass to wide receiver Josh Reynolds. The third quarter would end with a 20-20 score after both teams kicked successful field goals.
Tied at 20, Greg Zuerlein would give the Rams their first lead in the fourth quarter with a 53-yard field goal. Showing that he still has it, Tom Brady would throw his second touchdown of the night, this time hitting running back James White for a 9-yard score. With the Patriots up 27-23, Todd Gurley would hit pay dirt from 5 yards out to give the Rams a 30-27 lead and eventually the win.
