    The Greatest Show on Turf (1999 St. Louis Rams)

    In August 1999, the St. Louis Rams were 200-to-1 longshots to win the Super Bowl. Their starting quarterback had just torn his ACL.

By February, they'd built the most explosive offense in NFL history and won the championship on the last play of the game.
