Rams regroup after Super Bowl loss to Patriots
In New Orleans, Rams coach Mike Martz urged players to remember the pain of the 20-17 defeat as they vow to return. St. Louis had set records with 500 points in three straight seasons, a 14 point favorite tag, and star power led by Kurt Warner and Marshall Faulk, yet the defense and miscues cost a title. London Fletcher noted sometimes the better team does not win.
