There has never been a shutout in the Super Bowl. However, there have been two games in which the losing team only managed to score three points. In Super Bowl VI (1972), the Dallas Cowboys defeated the Miami Dolphins, 24–3. Then in Super Bowl LIII (2019), the New England Patriots beat the Los Angeles Rams, 13–3.
