The Patriots offense in nine drives had been only able to muster up three points thanks to an amazing game plan from the Rams defense. However, they finally were able to crack the code in the fourth quarter, as they managed to score a touchdown and a field goal on their final two drives to win Super Bowl 53 13-3. On the go-ahead touchdown drive, the Patriots hit the Rams with a different personnel grouping and an unorthodox formation out of it to jumpstart the offense.
New England opened the drive with a play action pass to Rob Gronkowski out of 21 (2 RB, 1 TE) personnel for an 18-yard catch and run, but then hit the Rams with something completely different after that.
