New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski called Sunday's Super Bowl win over the Los Angeles Rams the sweetest of his three championships but said he would need more time to decide whether it was his last game. Gronkowski made one of the biggest plays of the game, a 29-yard diving catch in the fourth quarter that put the ball on the Ram's two-yard line that set up the game's only touchdown and the Rams never threatened again as they fell 13-3. NFL: Not really passing the torch as Pats old guard stands firm

Those watching the Super Bowl on Sunday to see a passing of the torch instead saw the old guard stand firm as the New England Patriots won a battle of the generations 13-3 over the Los Angeles Rams ensuring their dynasty will carry on. The National Football League will mark its 100th season in 2019 and the Patriots will be right at the center of the celebrations after another Super Bowl performance that was literally one for the ages with 41-year-old Tom Brady and 66-year-old Bill Belichick entering the record books as the oldest quarterback and coach to hoist the Vince Lombardi trophy. NFL: McVay's offense gets lesson from defensive guru Belichick

Sean McVay may have been credited with changing the way NFL teams play with the ball, but the Los Angeles Rams coach and his high-octane offense were given a lesson by defensive master Bill Belichick in the Super Bowl on Sunday. Belichick's New England Patriots shut down McVay's team on Sunday, keeping them scoreless in the first half, to complete a 13-3 victory in Atlanta and the second-year coach admitted he had few answers to the veteran's defensive scheme. Bud Light, robots, AI dominate attention during Super Bowl

Anheuser-Busch Inbev's Bud Light stole the show with a tie-up with HBO's "Game of Thrones," during the Super Bowl on Sunday, while robots and artificial intelligence were a big theme for several advertisers targeting what is expected to be the year's largest TV audience. Brands generally stuck to a lighter tone than in previous years, avoiding political messages and focused on either humor or uplifting themes, said Tim Calkins, professor of marketing at Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management.

Gladys Knight's rendition of the national anthem at the Super Bowl on Sunday caused a headache for one sports betting company after the singer extended the end of the song, the length of which had drawn intense wagering interest. BetOnline.AG had set the length of the song, which ends with the word "brave," at one minute and 50 seconds and Knight completed singing the word at one minute and 49 seconds. Smiles, grimaces in New Jersey with first-ever legal Super Bowl bets

A roar went up inside the FanDuel Sportsbook in New Jersey on Sunday, but play in the Super Bowl had not even started. It was just the coin toss to determine which team receives the ball first - the Los Angeles Rams won when the coin landed "tails" up - and those in the crowd who lost a few dollars groaned and grimaced. Patriots Edelman becomes unlikely Super Bowl MVP

Patriots' Julian Edelman, an undersized wide receiver few thought would ever make a name for himself in NFL, won the Super Bowl MVP trophy on Sunday after his key plays helped lift New England to a 13-3 victory over the Los Angeles Rams. In a game where both offenses struggled to find the end zone, Edelman made the most of his opportunities, catching 10 of the 12 passes thrown his way for 141 yards while rushing once for eight yards.
