It was Kurt Warner that came out if nowhere to lead the greatest show on turf in 1999 and possibly one of the greatest teams of all time. The 99-2000 St Louis Rams.
He was supposed to be the backup to the high priced free agent, Trent Green. This was a 3-13 team the year before and had gone 0-8 against the division. This was supposed to be a rebuilding year even with Trent Green who only had shown moderate success with a mediocre Redskins team prior to his coming to St Louis.
The Rams were actually 200 to 1 odds to win the super bowl. But with Kurt Warner at the controls and the all important signing of the number 1 draft pick, offensive lineman, Orlando Pace, the greatest show on turf, started 6-0 on their way to a 13-3 finish including turning the tables and sweeping their division 8-0. There have several worst to first finishes in sports, but never anything like this.
The intangible factor I want you to embrace is that, several years before when Warner was still in college at Northern Iowa, he met Brenda. She made it clear to him that she had a special needs son and that they were a package deal. Kurt decided he was all in with both of them and I truly believe God above rewarded him with what ultimately became a hall of fame career.

You're wrong but yes, Warner's story is arguably more amazing that Brady's. I came across that movie of his im my hotel room the other day but was on the way out the door so I only caught 5 minutes of it. We'll look for it on one of the streaming services when I get home.
