I feel like whatever team goes into the half down on points has the advantage. Atleast they always win whenever I see a game.

Pretty much. Winning team takes a "play to not lose" approach while team behind adopts the "play to win" mindset.

Defense play calling gets more prevention based rather than pressure based, offensive play calls become time management and conservative. Next thing you know other teams caught up and you're forced to make a play.

By that time the team that was leading needs to make a move, they are essentially iced playing against a defense that has been in rhythm. And either throw a pick trying to force something or just 4 and out.
