Ranking every Super Bowl 56-1 Tom Brady-led Patriots played in best games heres where Rams-Bengals fits

Wiki Article

Two years ago, the Kansas City Chiefs got back to the Super Bowl and tried to throw a real wrench in Tom Brady's dynasty plans by creating their own little party in K.C. Then Brady showed up with his new team, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers hosted the Super Bowl and Brady -- at the tender age of 344 -- won his seventh Super Bowl in fairly boring fashion. One could even argue it was Brady's presence and age and the sheer dominance of the Bucs over a heretofore unstoppable offense that made this Super Bowl interesting. Because it wasn't the close nature of the game, the ending or anything drama related to the action on the field. More on Super Bowl LVII on the other side led a lot of us to believe "they'll get going eventually" and they never did. It was a tough Super Bowl to watch and an even tougher one to rank. Then last year, Mahomes was unseated as AFC king by Joe Burrow, who got his Bengals into the big game to face the Rams. It was a fun game -- and each had their moments, we saw a running back throw a touchdown pa s, there was a thrilling end ... and yet it was somehow a little underwhelming. Below you can see where we ranked that one, as well as every Super Bowl ever played. 56. Super Bowl XXIX 49, 26 Steve Young threw six touchdown pa ses and the Niners nearly hung a 50 burger in a Super Bowl, demolishing the in a game that didn't even feel this close. 55. Super Bowl XLVIII 43, 8 Start to finish the Seahawks defense absolutely dominated Peyton Manning and the favored Broncos' historic offense. An absolute bludgeoning that no one saw coming. 54. Super Bowl XXIV San Francisco 49ers 55, Denver Broncos 10 An absolute blasting that was out of hand by halftime (27-3) as an utterly dominant Niners squad that was loaded on both sides of the ball just beat up on an overmatched Broncos team. Dominance is fun but not when you want an epic game. The Broncos were actually the top defensive team in football here. 53. Super Bowl XXXV 34, 7 The Giants had the tables turned on them after demolishing the 41-0 in the NFC Championship game, getting completely snuffed out by the Ravens in the title game. I always think about the alleged $20,000 preseason bet Phil Mickelson put on the Ravens to win it all when I think of this game. 52. Super Bowl XXXVII 48, 21 The Jon Gruden Bowl sent the Raiders spiraling (they wouldn't return to the playoffs until 2016!) following a devastating blowout. The Bucs' defense suffocated the powerful Raiders offense. It's not fair that Rich Gannon and that offense are remembered by this game. They were incredible. 51. Super Bowl XXII 42, Denver Broncos 10 Doug Williams became the first African-American quarterback to start, and after trailing 10-0 in the first quarter, the Redskins responded with an absurd 42 unanswered points, 35 in the second quarter. This was not a thriller in the second half. 50. Super Bowl XXVII 52, 17 This game should have been 59-17 except for Don Beebe chasing down Leon Lett late in the game to stop the Cowboys from scoring again. Otherwise, it was a depantsing that featured Jim Kelly getting hurt (Frank Reich replaced him) and Troy Aikman going 22 for 30 for 273 yards and four touchdown pa ses to kick start the Cowboys dynasty of the '90s. 49. Super Bowl IV 23, Minnesota Vikings 7 Hank Stram's Chiefs handled the Vikings, snuffing out the rushing attack in a game with pretty sloppy weather. . 48. Super Bowl VIII 24, Minnesota Vikings 7 Bob Griese completed over 85 percent of his pa ses in this game, completing six of his seven attempts. The Dolphins fed Larry Csonka the ball 33 times for 145 yards and led 24-0 going into the Matt Calvert Women Jersey fourth quarter. 47. Super Bowl XII Dallas Cowboys 27, Denver Broncos 10 The Broncos were never really any closer than 10 points in this game and Craig Morton's 4-for-15, 39-yard, four-interception performance kind of summed up Denver's effort. 46. Super Bowl I 35, Kansas City Chiefs 10 Bart Starr completed 16 of 23 pa ses for 250 yards and a pair of touchdowns, and the combo of Zeke Bratkowski/Jim Taylor rushed for another three scores in a game that was never close. But it did start a delightful tradition and it featured a man named Zeke Bratkowski. 45. Super Bowl XXVI Washington Redskins 37, Buffalo Bills 24 The Bills closed this game to a two-score affair, but the Redskins were blasting them 24-0 in the third quarter and 37-10 in the fourth. Fun fact: Millions of children demanded their parents change the channel during halftime from CBS to Fox to watch Jim Carrey appear as Fire Marshall Bill on a halftime version of "In Living Color." 44. Super Bowl XV Oakland Raiders 27, 10 The Raiders led 14-3 at half and a trio of Ron Jaworski interceptions was too much for Philadelphia to overcome, especially with Jim Plunkett to sing three touchdowns for an MVP-caliber game. 43. Super Bowl XXXII Denver Broncos 34, 19 Somehow Chris Chandler wasn't able to stop John Elway from winning his final game as a pro? You don't say. The world was robbed of seeing the Vikings and Broncos square off. This lo s was probably much easier than Super Bowl LI for the Falcons. 42. Super Bowl XXI New York Giants 39, Denver Broncos 20 John Elway and the Broncos would take a 10-7 lead into the second quarter, but the Giants ripped off 26 unanswered points behind our excellent colleague Phil Simms, who lit up the Broncos for 268 yards and three touchdowns before promptly coining the "I'm going to Disney World!" phrase. 41. Super Bowl XVIII Los Angeles Raiders 38, Washington Redskins 9 Two defensive touchdowns in the first half and a pair of touchdown runs in the second half snuffed out the 16-win Redskins and Joe Theismann. Hey, Los Angeles can win a Super Bowl! This would be the last AFC title until the 1997 season. 40. Super Bowl VI Dallas Cowboys 24, Miami Dolphins 3 Tom Landry's Cowboys blistered Miami in this one, which is wild Boone Jenner Men Jersey because the Dolphins were one season away from going undefeated. Miami managed one second-quarter field goal, while Dallas rumbled for 252 rushing yards. 39. Super Bowl XIX San Francisco 49ers 38, Miami Dolphins 16 Dan Marino threw for more than 5,000 yards in 1984, his second season. He was supposed to end up with so many more chances to win the Super Bowl and he never returned. 38. Super Bowl XI Oakland Raiders 32, Minnesota Vikings 14 A total of 17 Hall of Fame players or coaches were involved in this showdown, but John Madden's Raiders easily waltzed away from Bud Grant's Vikings. 37. Super Bowl IX 16, Minnesota Vikings 6 This was a "Your defense is offensive game" with a halftime score of 2-0. Two! Terry Bradshaw and Fran Tarkenton combined for 198 yards on 40 attempts, but the Steelers still won the franchise's first Super Bowl. 36. Super Bowl II Green Bay Packers 33, Oakland Raiders 14 Vince Lombardi left as the Packers' coach a winner, walking away with a victory over the Raiders in this Super Bowl. Well, technically he was carried away by his team, but you get the point. A dominant Packers victory. 35. Super Bowl XX 46, 10 The Pats scored first, registering a field goal, and then didn't put up any more points until it was 44-3 in the fourth quarter. That's what happens when you run into arguably the greatest defense of all time. When William "Refrigerator" Perry is scoring touchdowns, you know it's a blowout. 34. Super Bowl V Baltimore 16, Dallas Cowboys 13 Known as the "Blunder Bowl," this matchup featured 11 turnovers and a player on the losing team (Cowboys linebacker Chuck Howley) winning the Super Bowl MVP. Oddly enough that sounds like an awesome time. 33. Super Bowl XXVIII Dallas Cowboys 30, Buffalo Bills 13 The Bills, in their fourth consecutive appearance in a Super Bowl, led by seven points at halftime, so naturally Thurman Thomas immediately fumbled the ball in the third quarter, with scooping and scoring. The Bills wouldn't score in the second half. Oof. 32. Super Bowl LIII New England Patriots 13, Los Angeles Rams 3 Let's not sugarcoat it: this game stunk. The Rams were one of the most dominant offenses in NFL history and they were supposed to usher in a new era of offense with Sean McVay at the wheels and flinging the ball everywhere. Instead, the Rams scored -- *checks notes* *wipes gla ses* *checks notes again* -- three points. THREE POINTS. If we'd seen the sideline interaction of McVay coming to shake hands with Bill Belichick, we might have predicted this collapse, but surely no one saw this coming. The Rams couldn't do anything. Bill Belichick outschemed McVay, and the Pats' offense refused to get going either, which led to a 3-0 score heading into the fourth quarter. We were talking about a punter winning Super Bowl MVP in the year 2019. New England would tack on 10 more points in the fourth quarter, including a plunge, and those scores coupled with interception of Goff basically end the Rams' chances. This Super Bowl wasn't bad, per se, it was just incredibly disappointing. 31. Super Bowl 50 Denver Broncos 24, 10 The legacy game for that never happened thanks to the Broncos defense destroying him. The Panthers were a one-lo s team that looked sloppy on the big stage and got smoked by and company, who let Peyton Manning ride off into the sunset with a second Super Bowl ring. Newton is more remembered for a busine s decision and a juvenile pre s conference. 30. Super Bowl XLI Indianapolis Colts 29, Chicago Bears 17 Take away the Devin Hester kickoff return to open the game and this turns into a real ugly blowout. That's what happens when you take horrible weather and pit Peyton Manning against Rex Gro sman. 29. Super Bowl VII Miami Dolphins 14, Washington Redskins 7 Don Shula and Miami wrapped up the only undefeated season in NFL history. You might have heard but they like to drink champagne sometimes. Pretty wild that an undefeated team was basically a pick 'em in this game at the books. Vegas was a little off on this one -- the Redskins didn't find the end zone until the fourth quarter on a fumble return after a botched field goal. Larry Csonka carried the ball 15 times for 112 yards. 28. Super Bowl XL Pittsburgh Steelers 21, Seattle Seahawks 10 Marred by horrific officiating that still draws the ire of Seahawks fans to this day (wouldn't want to bring this game up to Matt Ha selbeck), this was an ugly game with some fun plays (hello Antwan Randle-El). Did anyone know Jerome Bettis was from Detroit? This was the Steelers' "one for the thumb" win as a franchise and featured NFL on CBS analyst Bill Cowher reaching the pinnacle. 27. Super Bowl LV Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31, Kansas City Chiefs 9 I've made a point out of ranking blowouts very low on this list -- and there are a lot of Super Bowl blowouts! -- but I'm giving this one an exception because of the pandemic year. It ranks a little bit higher than most blowouts because we have a shocking case of an underdog winning outright against one of the best offenses you'll ever see. The Chiefs offensive line, however, was just a big old problem and the Buccaneers defense came to play. Plus, how can you not bump a Tom Brady Super Bowl up the list, particularly when he leaves the Patriots after 20 years, goes to Tampa Bay, doesn't even win the division, wins Lukas Sedlak Jersey three road playoff games as a wild card and then HOSTS the Super Bowl only to win it at the age of 43? It felt like a fever dream amid a global pandemic -- even if the game wasn't good, the storyline still holds up. 26. Super Bowl XVII Washington Redskins 27, Miami Dolphins 17 This season is best remembered for a kicker (Mark Moseley) winning the MVP, so it should probably be eradicated from history. Still, the Redskins dominating down the stretch, coming back from down 17-10 to shut out the Dolphins in the second half, is an impre sive feat. 25. Super Bowl XVI San Francisco 49ers 26, 21 This game is a reminder that even the greats don't always play great in huge games. Joe Montana is undefeated in Super Bowls but he went just 14 of 22 for 157 yards and a score here. But and there's a lot of lore to build on. 24. Super Bowl X Pittsburgh Steelers 21, Dallas Cowboys 17 The Steel Curtain locked down Roger Staubach in the second half, only allowing seven points to the Cowboys after the break, and to mount an epic comeback. 23. Super Bowl XXXI Green Bay Packers 35, New England Patriots 21 The Patriots and Drew Bledsoe had closed the game to 27-21 in the third quarter when Desmond Howard ripped off an electric 99-yard touchdown on the kickoff return that snuffed out the comeback. This Packers team was stacked on both sides of Zac Dalpe Kids Jersey the ball and the stars (Brett Favre, three total touchdowns, and Reggie White, three sacks) produced. 22. Super Bowl XXXIX New England Patriots 24, Philadelphia Eagles 21 The score makes this look a little closer than it was, with the most memorable things for the Eagles coming when Donovan McNabb puked his guts up in the huddle and Terrell Owens playing like a man po se sed despite coming off a broken leg. After this game, it felt like the Patriots would win 10 consecutive Super Bowls. 21. Super Bowl XXX Dallas Cowboys 27, Pittsburgh Steelers 17 An epic comeback by the Steelers, featuring an onside kick and a Bam Morris touchdown run, fell short thanks to the second interception of the game for , who almost returned both picks to the house. Jerry Jones has since claimed he made a deal with The Big Guy to never win another Super Bowl if Barry Switzer and Co. won this one. So, maybe want to remember that moving forward. 20. Super Bowl LIV Kansas City Chiefs 31, San Francisco 49ers 21 I had a really hard time ranking this Super Bowl. It was a thrilling game at the end -- featuring a 21-point fourth-quarter comeback from Patrick Mahomes -- but for a large part of the game it felt kind of disappointing. The 49ers played really well and the Chiefs just couldn't convert their drives into scores. Finally, they took the top off, as the 49ers simply couldn't contain them any longer, and they ripped off that trio of touchdowns to put this game away, including a 38-yard scamper from to seal things. had a shot at taking the lead late, but he overthrew . 19. Super Bowl XLVI New York Giants 21, New England Patriots 17 Revenge wasn't on the menu this time around, with Eli Manning and the Giants front four pulling off the upset once again. The only difference this time was Mario Manningham making the miraculous catch instead of David Tyree (spoiler: that game is ranked higher). 18. Super Bowl XLV Green Bay Packers 31, Pittsburgh Steelers 25 An absolute shootout between two guys -- and Ben Roethlisberger -- operating at the peak of their primes. Rodgers shook the absurd "playoff struggles" narrative with the Packers' run as a wild card and hit Greg Jennings on an to help salt the game away. 17. Super Bowl LVI Los Angeles Rams 23, Cincinnati Bengals 20 The latest Super Bowl created a lot of controversy in the CBS rankings lab, with noted Bengals homer John Breech pounding the table to move this Super Bowl up into the top 15 or even top 10. Very weird for someone who watched his lifelong favorite team lose in person! It was a fun game -- and each had their moments, we saw a running back throw a touchdown pa s, there was a thrilling end ... and yet it was somehow a little underwhelming. I would have probably gone a little bit lower myself, but it cemented Stafford's Hall of Fame legacy and I ultimately got sick of Breech complaining about where I wanted to rank it. 16. Super Bowl XLIV 31, Indianapolis Colts 17 This game ended up as a two-score win for Drew Brees and Co., but it was a lot closer. of Peyton Manning ran up the score. Sean Payton onside kicking to start the second half is one of the biggest onion hangs in Super Bowl history. 15. Super Bowl XLVII Baltimore Ravens 34, San Francisco 49ers 31 An oddly thrilling game in the Superdome featuring a terrifying power outage, two brothers coaching against one another (the Harbaughs) and a compelling comeback by the 49ers that fell just short when Colin Kaepernick couldn't hit Michael Crabtree on . 14. Super Bowl XXXII Denver Broncos 31, Green Bay Packers 24 An epic showdown between two Hall of Fame quarterbacks in John Elway (seeking his first Super Bowl win) and Brett Favre (coming off his first Super Bowl win). The Broncos finally shook off a Super Bowl losing streak thanks to Elway helicoptering for a first down late and setting up a Terrell Davis touchdown. 13. Super Bowl XIV Pittsburgh Steelers 31, 19 Terry Bradshaw won the Super Bowl MVP award despite throwing three interceptions, largely because of his clutch fourth-quarter play that resulted in a pair of Steelers touchdowns that were the difference in a close game. The first one was a beautiful bullet deep, a 73-yard strike from Bradshaw to give the Steelers their fourth Super Bowl victory in six years. 12. Super Bowl XXXVI New England Patriots 20, St. Louis Rams 17 The title that kicked off the Patriots dynasty and a very similar victory to the Giants beating the Pats twice. The Patriots defense suffocated the Greatest Show on Turf, and the Rams still probably feel like Spygate robbed them of a title. and Bill Belichick started building their legacy here. The entire game felt like being punched in the gut with the way the Rams' powerful offense was completely stifled. It was incomprehensible. 11. Super Bowl XXXVIII New England Patriots 32, Carolina Panthers 29 This was a brutal game for Panthers fans, who watched Jake Delhomme create some playground magic and absolutely dominate, only to have John Kasay send a late kickoff out of bounds to set up a Tom Brady drive and an field goal. Fun fact: I watched one of my roommates slap another roommate when the second guy started cheering for the Pats late in this one. 10. Super Bowl XLIII Pittsburgh Steelers 27, 23 Tons of epic plays in this game, from 's wild interception touchdown return in the first half to the epic Ben Roethlisberger touchdown throw to in the end zone for the win. If you want to talk about greatest catches of all time, that one deserves consideration as much as the Tyree catch. Look how little room he had back there. An all-time postseason by really went to waste here. 9. Super Bowl III 16, Baltimore Colts 7 A pure homage to Joe Namath guaranteeing a victory and the ability of this Jets win to spark the NFL-AFL merger thanks to the AFL's first victory in the matchup. The Jets only managed a single touchdown in this game but it was enough to topple an aging Johnny Unitas and the Colts. 8. Super Bowl XXXIV St. Louis Rams 23, 16 The beginning of the Greatest Show on Turf culminated in Kurt Warner winning a Super Bowl MVP by throwing for more than 400 yards. It looked like the Titans would score and tie things up, but Kevin Dyson was stopped, almost frozen in time with his hand reaching out to the end zone. The world was one yard short from Jeff Fisher po sibly winning a Super Bowl. 7. Super Bowl XXIII San Francisco 49ers 20, Cincinnati Bengals 16 Friend of the program Jim Breech banged home a trio of field goals (34, 43 and 40 yards) but it wasn't enough for the Bengals to keep pace with the 49ers and Jerry Rice, who finished with 215 yards on 11 catches. Mercy. An unbelievable drive by Joe Montana against a Dick LeBeau defense to close this one out. 6. Super Bowl XXV New York Giants 20, Buffalo Bills 19 An incredible game between two great teams went back and forth, with the Pierre-Luc Dubois Women Jersey game ultimately coming down to Scott Norwood's foot -- the Bills kicker attempted the longest gra s kick of his career (47 yards) and pushed it wide right. 5. Super Bowl XIII Pittsburgh Steelers 35, Dallas Cowboys 31 and realize it's exactly what we wanted (and got) with the Eagles and Patriots in Super Bowl LII. Two really talented offensive teams lobbed up a ton of points with two great quarterbacks. Roger Staubach and Terry Bradshaw combined for seven touchdowns in this one. 4. Super Bowl LI New England Patriots 34, Atlanta Falcons 28 This was a really difficult Super Bowl to rank. Does the Patriots' comeback from 28-3 make it the greatest Super Bowl ever? It was certainly the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history, but you can argue at least one half of this game was not "exciting," per se. On the other hand, it was absolutely stunning to see the Patriots get curb-stomped by the Falcons in the first half; most of the pre s box was writing some version of "Dan Quinn built the baby Seahawks in Atlanta" column (I know I was). There was some "well, Tom Brady is involved" chatter and "you can't count out Touchdown Tom" stuff, but mostly it was a coronation of the Falcons and a lot of people preparing to dance on the grave of the Patriots dynasty. WHOOPS. Brady was an a sa sin in the second half of this game and the Patriots did lots of Patriots things. The drama mostly surfaced from there being about 10 game minutes, including overtime (the first Super Bowl overtime ever by the way), where you knew the Falcons were a girl running into the barn in a horror movie. They were dead, they just didn't know it yet. It was both breathtaking and heartbreaking. 3. Super Bowl LII Philadelphia Eagles 41, New England Patriots 33 I feel like a Millennial filling the top of this list with recent Super Bowl matchups, but the reality is these games have been INCREDIBLE. I can't bring myself to push the Eagles win over the stunning upset of the undefeated Patriots or the drama of the Seahawks-Pats Super Bowl and the ending of that game, but this one is pretty close. There was a David vs. Goliath factor to this game even though the Eagles were a No. 1 seed out of the NFC Alexander Wennberg Men Jersey , thanks to being under center. There was the breakout performance by the Eagles coaching staff, and this victory helped pave the way for in-game aggre sivene s and analytics usage to become the norm in 2019 (never mind the Patriots have been doing both for years). Tom Brady threw for 505 yards, three touchdowns, no interceptions ... and the Patriots lost. There was the PHILLY SPECIAL, a wild trick play that resulted in Foles catching a touchdown on a fourth down near the goal line. There was an attempt to throw Brady a pa s that backfired. Brady had a Hail Mary look to try and tie the game up. US Bank Stadium was JAMMED with Eagles fans, most of whom were fighting off the cold with heavy doses of libations and their combination of underdog confidence and terror of having their hearts broken again filled the stadium with an incredible tension. Multiple plays on this broadcast were in the "was it a catch??" territory. To see a city and a fanbase have decades of football-related depre sion cured by a single underdog victory over the mighty Patriots was something else to behold. 2. Super Bowl XLII New York Giants 17, New England Patriots 14 The undefeated Patriots strolled into this game as ma sive favorites, until the Giants provided the formula to beat Tom Brady: pre sure with a four-man front. There are more technically proficient and athletic catch-and-throws than The Helmet Catch, but there aren't many that are more miraculous and on a bigger stage. It was a mini-Hail Mary with Eli Manning scrambling to avoid pre sure followed by David Tyree pinning the ball to his helmet as he fell to the ground. The stuff of legends. 1. Super Bowl XLIX New England Patriots 28, Seattle Seahawks 24 This game had . There was controversy coming in (Deflategate had just begun) and it was a battle of the two best teams in football. The defending champion Seahawks came out gunning, the Patriots responded and took over the game and then and Seattle tried to steal it back with one of the wildest catches by you will ever see. promptly took it right back with arguably the greatest defensive play in Super Bowl history.
