POLL Best Super Bowl (Last 20 years)

[RP-29]

Cowboys are Merica's Team. Everyone knows that

Haha. I consider the Cowboys the Packers' greatest non-divisional rival, so I gotta take shots at them every now and then. ...All in good fun.

Steelers Cardinals when you take into account James Harrison's INT return for a TD right before the half, then Santonio with the clutch TD catch in the corner

I get it. I miss the days of Favre. For some reason he wasn't very successful against the Boys. Rodgers straight up owns em. He should be taxed for ownin' that shit.

Id also love it as a Pats fan, but no SB that was a complete snoozefest for 3 quarters should be listed as the best

I don't know why it would be considered a snoozefest for 3 quarters. Maybe for the 1st quarter because the teams exchanged punts, and the third quarter because it just seemed like we would be waiting on the inevitable. But the 2nd quarter had 2 straight scores and then a pick-6. And the 4th quarter and OT was phenomenal.

And don't pretend like you weren't a giddy school girl for that 2nd quarter.

True and the 1 the year before Rams vs Titans was great. Tenn receiver got stopped on the 1 yard line and time exp and Rams won by 7 first real good SB in years, rest before were blowouts

The Rams/Titans Super Bowl was 2 years before. But yeah, I think we had gotten used to the Super Bowl blowout at that point. There was 1 really good Super Bowl in the previous 8 (Denver over Green Bay). And in the previous 17 Super Bowls, 3 were decided by one possession (Denver over Green Bay, Giants over Bills, and 49ers over Bengals). In the 18 Super Bowls from 1999-2016, there have been 11.

The thing with these is that a lot of those games, while maybe having exciting finishes were pretty sloppy boring games for the most part. Yeah, the Gmen ruined the perfect season for Brady and BB but the game was crappy. As for last year, by late in the 3rd quarter, did anyone have any doubt the Falcons would choke that away. Great comeback for sure, but predictable.
I voted Pats/Hawks. It was heartbreaking but that 4th quarter was like a title fight between 2 great boxers down the stretch. Trading punches.
Pitt/Zona was another great game like that as well but I am biased when it comes to the Steelers.

You had no doubt the Falcons would blow a 28-9 lead in the 4th quarter?

Pitt/Zona may be the best from start to finish.......Even if Atlanta won last season, it was one of the worst SB's i can remember, along with that Seattle/Pitt SB

Its hard to separate fandom from these things, obviously both Giants SB's were the best for me, but trying to remain neutral, that Pitt/Zona one was awesome

Maybe some doubt but not much.The Falcons were starting to look like the same old Falcons and Brady had his mojo going. Was hoping Atlanta could hold on but they weren't playing to win, rather playing not to lose and that always has disaster written all over it. It just had Houston @ Bills vibe to me.

Cant say I knew it, but I knew Atlanta better not give them even a small window to come back, and they opened every window in the house

Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking. I didn't really state it correctly in my first post.

You probably could have gotten some pretty sweet odds on Bovada's live betting.

$100 would have won you $32000 when it was 28-3

I remember a live bet in that Packers/Seahawks onside kick playoff game, at some point, dont remember when, but $100 would have won you about $50k if you took Seattle

Man Arizona had that game, if Kurt Warner doesn't throw that pick 6, 99 yard return by James Harrison right before half

Brady had to put up almost 200 yards in the 4th Q and Pats had to make 2 2 point Conv down the stretch, I didn't think they were coming back

Yeah, even if they were the Patriots and had Tom Brady there is no way that comeback was "predictable" at that point.

Seahawks-Patriots was an amazing football game even if I hated the ending. Both teams played well throughout the game. Numerous huge plays(TD at the end of 1st half, Kearse catch, Butler pick). Ultimately decided on one team making a better play than the other.

2nd place is Steelers-Cardinals.

Rams-Titans for the incredible ending and both Giants-Patriots get honorable mention.
