Sometimes a team comes up against a force that just cannot be stopped. The Miami Dolphins the season before had the perfect season going undefeated. In 1973, the Dolphins again won the Super Bowl against the Minnesota Vikings defeating them 24-7. The Dolphins went up the field and scored on their first two possessions, and that was all she wrote!
If you are a fan of great offensive performances then you should probably avoid watching the highlights of Super Bowl XL. The Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Seattle Seahawks in a game that showed a lack of offense more than stellar defenses. The biggest play of the game actually came from a receiver throwing a touchdown pass to another receiver when Hines Ward caught a touchdown pass from Antwaan Randle El. This was a Super Bowl that one could fall asleep to.
Super Bowl XXXI was actually a pretty good game until the fourth quarter came around. Drew Bledsoe threw two interceptions in the final quarter and never brought the ball into the Green Bay Packers’ side of the field. Bledsoe had four interceptions in this game while Brett Favre began his legend.
The “Super Bowl Shuffle” worked in this game for the Chicago Bears. The Bears' great defense was too much for the New England Patriots. This wasn’t a Patriots team that had Tom Brady, but I don’t even think he could have stopped this machine of a team that the Bears had that season.
If you love to watch a Super Bowl with two teams that had no big name quarterbacks, a team that turned the ball over five times and a defense that did not allow a single offensive touchdown, then Super Bowl XXXV was the one for you. Here was a game that pinned “the great” Trent Dilfer against the journeyman Kerry Collins. The Baltimore Ravens made a joke out of the New York Giants in this game.
Having a 35-point second quarter is always the way you want your team to play in the Super Bowl. In Super Bowl XXII the Washington Redskins made this happen against the Denver Broncos. If you like blowouts then check it out, but this was definitely one of those Super Bowls that you could have turned off after the halftime show.
Everyone loves watching a close, suspense-building Super Bowl. This was not one of those games. Hall-of-Fame quarterback Joe Montana went up against another future Hall-of-Fame quarterback John Elway in a game that many felt would be closer than this. They were wrong. When a team scores a touchdown on four of its first six possessions, you know it's going to be a long night!
Steve Young threw for a record six touchdowns to help his San Francisco 49ers destroy the San Diego Chargers in Super Bowl XXIX. This wasn’t a game from the start. The 49ers were a force that no one wanted to mess with that season, and the Chargers were the unlucky team that had to get embarrassed by this juggernaut.
Here is the reason why this game is on this list: 52-17. The Dallas Cowboys were the team of the 1990s, and it showed in this Super Bowl XXVII win. The Buffalo Bills could have easily have been the team of the decade, but this game was the downfall of the Bills. I'm pretty sure they haven't recovered from this this loss yet!
When you beat a team 38-9 it shows complete domination. The Los Angeles Raiders made the Washington Redskins want to take a mulligan on this game. The Redskins could only put up three field goals in a Super Bowl! No matter which way you twist this, it was a terrible Super Bowl -- except for Raider fans, of course!
