Pretty big upset, but not quite big enough. You don't win a Super Bowl if you're a 14-point underdog. That doesn't happen. But for the Patriots back in 2002? They did just that. Kurt Warner and Marshall Faulk led the Rams as a pretty heavily favored contender. Tom Brady led the Patriots. A first-year QB playing in his first Super Bowl? Pfft, St. Louis is gonna wipe the floor with 'em. 14-point underdog? Make it 35. Make it higher! They're gonna crush 'em. Suddenly, Adam Vinatieri strikes. Patriots win. Nation shocked. Missouri depressed. Boom! Super Bowl champs!
