They were so close. They'd hung on for so long, you'd watched the time ticking down and you'd just started to believe that the little Bucs could derail the mighty Ram offensive machine. Then came that TD pass to Ricky Proehl, the terrible replay reversal of Bert Emanuel's "catch" followed and it was all over.
I've still not seen the Rams v Titans Super Bowl to this day - I just can't bear to watch it knowing the Bucs were so nearly there.
