See if you can guess them first.

#1. You're fat.

Did I win?

[Sharkweather]

Knew that '98 NFC title game had to be in there somewhere.

G-Men, 2007, #1!


UPDATE Stupid NFL.com has XLII taking a backseat to III? Bullshit. Wild card team facing the best offense of all-time, the greatest quarterback of the decade, the greatest coach yaddayaddayadda, the undefeated Patriots.......and they win.

I don't think the Chiefs win over the Vikings in Super Bowl IV is really an upset, because history has shown that the Chiefs were most likely the better team.

I think in terms of talent disparities, the Steelers win over the Oilers in 1989 was a huge upset. The Steelers were one of the worst playoff teams I have ever seen, and the Oilers had been to the playoffs the past two seasons and were at home, but somehow Jerry Glanville bungled things up and the Steelers won 26-23 in OT.

1 and 2 were so fucking obvious. Maybe I'd give a shit about the Jets beating the Colts if i was actually alive for that game. Giants v Patriots should have been #1.

wasnt that a bubby brister team?

[jeffx]

Giants-Bills should have been higher.

Yeah, I still have the original game recorded on a VHS tape. Bubby's mom (ugly) was in the stands for the playoff game, and whenever Bubby would do something on the field (which was often, since he was the QB), NBC would cut to Bubby's mom. Ick. It was a precursor to Tyler Hansbrough's parents.

[tigstah]

yay....no raiders over skins in the super bowl......squirek.....uh. that game still makes me sick to my stomach......

[shag773]

Vikings over Niners in Candlestick in '87?

Peyton doesn't play at New England... :headscratch:

[Maynard]

i would take SB 3 over the giants over pats any day. nobody thought any team from the AFL could compete with the NFL's worst teams. And here you have the Jets nearly shutout the 1 loss colts

there were plenty of people who thought the giants could beat the pats. the pats were great but not an unbeatable team

[Maize]

I expected Super Bowl IV to be Top 3. #1 and #2 were a no-brainer.
