  • New England strike late in lowest scoring Super Bowl ever
  • Edelman (10 catches, 141 yards) wins Most Valuable Player
  • Patriots move level with Steelers for most Super Bowl titles

And so the Patriotsarchy continues. New England, seemingly impervious to age, controversy and the best efforts of their opponents have won their sixth title in 18 years, an extraordinary achievement in a league built for parity. That their victory over the Rams regularly threatened to send tens of millions of TV viewers to sleep will matter little to their fans – or the fiercely competitive Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. In fact, you suspect it might make the victory sweeter for a team that seems to thrive on the antipathy of others.
