St. Louis Rams score just 7 points as New England Patriots run roughshod at Wembley

The St. Louis Rams could score just seven points in their London "home game" against the New England Patriots Sunday afternoon, but that wasn't really the problem—the problem was that the Patriots could score 45, and did, with Josh McDaniels adjunct Brandon Lloyd catching two touchdown passes and Rob Gronkowski—backed up by former Rams Michael Hoomanawanui and Daniel Fells—catching eight balls for 146 yards and two touchdowns.

The Rams, meanwhile—well, they just didn't. Sam Bradford was 22-for-30 for 205 yards, a touchdown, and a late interception that will be equally assessed on Brian Quick, while Steven Jackson and Daryl Richardson could barely get going before the blowout began. The only bright spot? Chris Givens going deep, as usual.

When that happened, the Rams were leading 7-0. What happened afterward is a little hard to explain, even if you aren't a Londoner out to see American football for the first and only time in your life. Some combination of the Patriots' offense being stupendous and the Rams' defense having its worst game of the season.

Patriots vs. Rams score update: Patriots pouring it on, lead 38-7 after 3rd quarter

Tom Brady threw for another touchdown and the New England Patriots scored 10 points in the third quarter to take a 38-7 lead over the St. Louis Rams going into the final 15 minutes in London.

That touchdown came two-and-a-half minutes into the quarter on a nine-yard throw to Brandon Lloyd. Brady has 19 completions on the day for 255 yards and three touchdowns without any interceptions.

After the Lloyd touchdown, New England held a 35-7 lead, but if that wasn't enough, Stephen Gostkowski added a field goal with just under seven minutes to play in the quarter to make it 38-7.

For the Rams, Sam Bradford has completed 23 passes for 204 yards. He's hit Lance Kendricks four times and Chris Givens twice for 59 yards. The Rams haven't gotten much on the ground at all, however. As a team, they have 27 yards rushing, compared to 119 for New England's Stevan Ridley alone.

With one quarter left to play, this one seems like it's just about over, and it would take an offensive outburst from the Rams to make it interesting again.

Patriots vs. Rams score update: Patriots open up 28-7 lead going into halftime

Each team scored on its opening drive of the game, but heading into halftime in London, the New England Patriots lead the St. Louis Rams, 28-7, behind three second-quarter touchdowns.

The first New England score of the quarter broke a 7-7 tie less than a minute into the period when Shane Vereen ran it in from one yard out to quickly put the Patriots up 14-7.

The Patriots then extended their lead with 6:31 remaining when Tom Brady connected with Rob Gronkowski on a seven-yard touchdown pass. This made it 21-7 and called for a nifty celebration from the New England tight end.

Finally, with time winding down in the half, Stevan Ridley went one yard to cap the scoring and put the Patriots up 28-7 at the break.

With 30 minutes of football still left to be played, it will take a sizable comeback from St. Louis to get back into the game. Quarterback Sam Bradford was 14-for-16 passing in the first half for 146 yards, one touchdown and zero interceptions.

The Patriots are in control for now, however, thanks to Brady's two touchdown passes and five total receptions from Gronkowski for 106 yards. On the ground, the combined efforts of Vereen and Ridley lead the way for the Patriots. New England is also 5-for-6 on third downs.

Patriots vs. Rams score update: Rams and Patriots tied through one quarter in London

Less than three minutes into the game, Sam Bradford connected with Chris Givens on a 50-yard touchdown pass to give the St. Louis Rams a quick lead, but the New England Patriots evened it up five minutes later on a touchdown of their own. Now, after one quarter from London, the two teams are tied at 7-7.

Both teams scored on their opening drives, with New England answering the St. Louis touchdown on a 19-yard pass from Tom Brady to Brandon Lloyd for 6 quick points. Stephen Gostkowski's extra point was good to tie the game, and that's where it stayed for the remainder of the quarter.

Brady has now thrown for a touchdown in 40 consecutive games, good for third-best all time. Drew Brees holds the record with 49 -- a streak that is ongoing.

Brady is a perfect 8-for-8 passing for 119 yards. Bradford 5-for-6 for 96 yards. New England's Stevan Ridley leads all rushers with six carries for 30 yards.
