In 2019, the New England Patriots floor their way to history, beating the Los Angeles Rams 13-3 at Super Bowl LIII in Atlanta, to place a record-equalling 6th NFL title. The two teams had previously played in Super Bowl XXXVI in 2002 — when the Rams were still based in St Louis — with a young rookie quarterback named Tom Brady leading the Patriots to an upset victory.

For their part, the Rams took a controversial 26-23 overtime win over arguably the best team in the NFL in 2018-19, the New Orleans Saints, aided by a dubious call by the officials in the closing minutes of regulation time.
