Your teams most devastating playoff loss

i remember that game; didnt the titans have a punt return for a TD right before halftime? i was shocked, thought for sure the jags would win convincingly the 3rd time around

I think they got a safety and then returned the free kick for a TD. I can't remember exactly when it was but I think it was either right before halftime or shortly after. And my brother is a Titans fan so for 18 years he's constantly reminding me about that season! Lol

Mine was in the 90's. We spotted the Niners a 21 point lead quickly. Came back to make it interesting. A late non PI call on Deion (who was a niner at the time) pretty much killed the chance to win. If that call gets made I think the Cowboys win. This was back when the Superbowl Champs were going to be the Cowboys, Niners or Packers. The AFC really never had a chance. So if the Cowboys would have won that game (or didn't spot 21 right off the bat) They would have won 4 Championships in a row. Something never been done by any team. So that game really hurt my feelings.
The Catch game was no fun either.

Hmmmm which decade?

Loss to the Jags at Mile High in '97 then the Raheem Moore game against the Ravens in '13. Best team in the league both times.

I don’t remember the losses from when I was a kid, so both of my contenders are very recent...

1) 2011 NFC Championship game. The Niners were a BEAST that year, but one guy ruined it all. Fuck you, Kyle Williams.

2) Super Bowl XLVII. I was unaware that shoving a ref was completely legal.

Jokes aside, mine is the NFC title game loss to Tampa, the year Gruden's Bucs beat the Raiders to win it all. I felt that was the best all-around Eagles team of the Reid era and should have won that game.

It's a tie.

1993 WC game - A 40 yard Favre to a wide open Sharpe with a minute left to win it by 4.
1983 Div round - Eddie Murray wide right from 43 yards with 5 seconds left.

Fuck Billy Cundiff

That is all

Many to choose from as a Packers fan but the 2014 NFC Championship game stands our for me. 2:09 from going to the Super Bowl which, IMO, they would have won but the effin backup TE can't field an on-sides kick.

Cot Damn It

Yes, but one of the greatest threads ever created on tHoop came from that game!

[Sam Sportboy]

Well, there have been soooooooooo many............................has to be 2000 fer me. Getting our asses kicked, make a huge comeback and a muffed punt puts us out......................

 

[Cedrique]

Why do I get the feeling this thread will get some action by either Jaguars or Patriots fans in about an hour and a half ?

1986 Bears
Following up the 85 Super Bowl, we cruised to a 14-2 season and first round playoff bye as the #2 seed.
Played the wild card Redskins.
Bears led 13-7 at the half.
Bears never scored another point.
Redskins win 27-13 and advance.

I don't think the Bears have won since.

All of you please!

Just stop!

None of your teams ever blew a 35-3 lead!

(& to a back up QB as well)

 

[bksballer89]

Do I even have to respond to this? It's pretty obvious

To a team that lost by five touchdowns to the Cowboys in the Super Bowl at that!
