Question book-new.svg.png
The Super Bowl Curse is a phrase referring to three types: Super Bowl participants that follow up with lower-than-expected performance the following year; teams that do not repeat as World Champions; and host teams of the Super Bowl that do not play the game on their own home turf.
Also called a Super Bowl hangover, it has been used, for example, to explain both why losing teams may post below-average winning percentages in the following year and why Super Bowl champions seldom return to the Super Bowl the following year. The term has been used since at least 1992,

No I was just attempting to be funny
Got ya.

But that statement implies that the loser doesn't repeat which means they win?

We refer to statements like that as Battleyon logic.

So are you saying SB losers win the SB the next year?

Do you associate with Battleyon?

How many teams repeat? When was the last team to repeat? Who has the curse?
It’s not a curse when most teams don’t repeat.

The curse is the losing team not making the playoffs the following season after they lost the SB.

56 SB’s and only 7 teams have managed to go back to back.

The winning team not repeating is therefore not a curse, it’s the norm. Repeating is the rare exception.

The losing team has missed the playoffs 17 times, with 11 of those teams having below .500 records ( all 11 of those teams have been since 1989 ).

easy Answer… Rams. I think the Cards finish 2nd. Not feeling The 9ers with Lance. It really all comes down to injuries like every year.

One more just in case all you self proclaimed experts think there is only one curse. Oh and feel free to continue to come up with your own definitions. That almost guarentees a virtual win here at the hoop.

Upon further review it appears wiki and american football data base copywrote each other as I didn't find any credit given.

Regardless this isn't a university paper we're writting. So does wiki, american football data base nor axios not count?

There are no curses, just nonsense people use as an excuse. Supposedly there was a Super Bowl homefield curse, until the Bucs and Rams both won on their homefield, that constituted closer to a so called curse, then a hangover or Super Bowl loser curse. If the Rams don't repeat or go back to the Super Bowl it's because they wouldn't be good enough too, not because of some phony curse. Little man is just a Rams hater and if he wants to believe in phony curses than that is on him.

Wow holy degrees Batman, how to do a complete 180.

Well at least you didn't just tuck tail and run after being proven a clown.

Thanks for the laughs.

Bucs won the Super Bowl at home in 2020
Rams won the Super Bowl at home in 2021

Super Bowl is in Arizona this year. Will the Cardinals make it or not? I think it puts some pressure on them. Do they want to be the team that ends the streak?
