This is a 10* play on the RAMS

I like the Rams in this year's Super Bowl. I understand that the Patriots bring both experience and "name value," but neither of those qualities necessarily ensure that they will be the better team come Sunday. Having won with each team in their respective Conference Championship Games, I'm obviously impressed with both sides. In fact, I also won with both in their Divisional Round contests. But you can only pick one and the fact the Rams overcame an early deficit in the Superdome to win impressed me more than what the Patriots did at Kansas City. Also, note that being an underdog is foreign to both teams. Neither had been one in any game this year before two weeks ago. Under Sean McVay, Los Angeles has been a dog just six times. Factoring out Week 17 of last season (rested starters), they are 4-1 ATS, winning outright four times. Experience certainly didn't matter in last year's Super Bowl when the Eagles downed the Patriots. All eight of the Super Bowls New England has been in with Brady and Belichick have ultimately been decided by one possession. Only two (the last two years) have been decided by a margin larger than four points and one of those two was the OT game vs. Atlanta. So taking points, no matter how few, seems like the right call.
