A sixth Lombardi Trophy would further cement the legacy of the New England Patriots, and specifically Bill Belichick and Tom Brady, but the upstart Los Angeles Rams are chasing history of their own in Super Bowl LIII on Sunday.

The Patriots are 5-3 in the Super Bowl, riding their historic coach-QB pairing to unmatched success.

"I think because of that experience, when those guys are so great at what they do and then they have that inventory that they have to draw on is so broad because of that experience," Rams head coach Sean McVay said. "Tom has seen so many different things and he's been able to adjust. He's got such a great feel for understanding how to manipulate, move coverage, handle certain situations where he might have to redirect a protection or throw quick-element throws if he is hot. Then, the same thing with coach Belichick. I can't imagine that there's really a scheme that he hasn't seen or hasn't had to defend, because really, all the stuff that we're running is some form of another play that we had already seen."
