Super Bowl 2019: Kickoff time for Patriots vs. Rams
When will Super Bowl LIII kick off? We have all you need to know.


An exact kickoff time is not given, especially for the Super Bowl, but you can expect everything around the huge spectacle to take a long time — more commercials that way!
The Patriots made it this far with two very impressive wins. First, they dominated the Los Angeles Chargers in the divisional round of the playoffs, and then won a close game over Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship.
Representing the NFC, the Rams had a pair of close games against the Dallas Cowboys in the divisional round and the New Orleans Saints in the NFC Championship.
That latter game was mired in controversy over the infamous non-call on a blatant pass interference, but the Rams are through to the Super Bowl regardless, and they’re going to be out there trying to stop Tom Brady from earning a sixth Super Bowl ring.
