The 1980 Raiders were famously the first wildcard team to win the Super Bowl (although the AFC was weird that year, with all five playoff teams finishing at 11-5). Most metrics have as below average but not notably terrible champions, although eDVOA has them as the second worst, barely ahead of the '70 Colts, so I mention them. The then-losingest team in history to make a Super Bowl, with no notable players beyond JPP and Manning, beat the “unstoppable” Patriots in the most-watched event in tv history at the time. It’s like training your whole life to run a race just to get beaten by the guy who discovered shoes yesterday. And it was glorious. No Broncos teams were underdogs that somehow slid their way into the superbowl. The 80's teams were proven to be a notch above the Browns/Patriots and the best of the AFC, they just got dumped on by simply better NFC teams. 2013 team obviously weren't overrated they were the best offenses of all time. Will Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs become the first team ever to win three consecutive Super Bowls? Can Nick Sirianni's Philadelphia Eagles flip the script from SB LVII and 1. 1985 Chicago Bears, won Super Bowl 20 (XX) Pure dominance. Their 15 regular-season wins came by an average of 18.1 points. The defense collected 64 sacks while allowing just 12.4 points weekly. Kansas City came away with the win in Super Bowl 57 two years ago, 38-35. This year's Eagles team will hope to avoid the same fate as the 49ers , who lost to the Chiefs in the Big Game last year Super Bowl LIX is the 25th NFL title game of the century, starting with the Rams' victory in January 2000, so it's a perfect time to roll out our 21st Century All-Super Bowl team, featuring the NFL referee union blasts Chiefs conspiracy theories ahead of Super Bowl 59 Every NFL trade involving a first-round pick since 2020, with biggest takeaways for Myles Garrett deal The Super Bowl will feature two of the best teams in the NFL facing off in New Orleans. We break down who will be playing and the history for the squads in Super Bowl 59. Six playoff games are in books. Seven games, and eight teams, remain standing on the road to Super Bowl LIX. How did the Wild Card round influence our thinking when it comes to which of the eight Purdy's contract really saves the day for the Niners. Not having to pay a QB really allows them to have a lot of talent all over the place. Look at the AFC teams, where Mahomes would love to have a pricey hired gun at WR that he could rely on, or how the Ravens are getting insane value of a bunch of lower-cost older guys in edge role rather than a monster edge rusher who would command big money. However, that was an aging team with an average defense and an offense that was inconsistent throughtout the year. They won a weak AFC North, finished the season at only 10-6 and relied on miraculous deep balls to bring home the title. Lets be real, a Super Bowl is a Super Bowl. If my team won the Super Bowl at 7-9 I wouldn't care. I think it is because the two teams that play in the Super Bowl are the "National Football Conference Champions" and the "American Football Conference Champions", so then saying "National Champions" for the Super Bowl might be confusing. I haven't really seen "World Champions" much anyway, "Super Bowl Champs" is much more common. It’s hard to explain. But Mahomes prevents teams from playing defense in certain ways because he’ll throw the ball nearly the entire length of the field to anyone open where most cant. And games feel like a process of waiting for him to figure out a team’s weakness and then all of a sudden they lose. Can’t stand glass Deebo talking so much shit and then shitting his pants in big games. Calling Rodgers a choker while simultaneously never winning a ring is rich. Nobody cares about NFCCG appearances or Super Bowl losses I mean, every QB gets carried to the Super Bowl to some extent or another. Bad teams don’t win Super Bowls. Above average teams rarely win Super Bowls, and when they do, they’re not playing like one. Great teams win the vast majority of Super Bowls, and while the QB is obviously the reason most great teams are great, it’s a team effort. 2012, 21 teams had 23+ and 13 teams had more than the Super Bowl winner (interestingly enough both BAL and SFO had the same number of takeaways (25)) 2008, league average was 25 takeaways. 14 teams finished above league average including the 2-14 St. Louis Rams and the 2-14 Kansas City Chiefs. 20 teams had 23+ takeaways That's the problem, your expectations are a little lower than some teams -- for teams like the Chiefs Bengals and Bills, Eagles Niners, even the Cowboys, anything short of being in or winning the Super Bowl is basically a disappointment when it really comes down to it. The Cowboys still haven't been back to the NFFCG, it took the Rams 17 years and a terrible non-call by the refs on clear pass interference for them to get back to the Super Bowl. And the Seahawks got as far as winning a wild card game since their last Super Bowl appearance in 2014. I believe once the two Super Bowl teams are selected then they are exempt from sending any players to the pro bowl. The players will still have pro bowl honours but will not attend due to risk of injury/limited practice for the big game.
