Throughout this offseason, I'll be putting up polls to let TGP determine the greatest Super Bowl of all time. With 48 of them in the books, I've set up a bracket so that 16 get a "bye week," and the rest compete in single-elimination votes. There will be no seeding round or preliminary round of any kind. This is the offseason and we want to chew as much time as possible. Also, we get to reflect on every Super Bowl from 1967 to 2014. ------------------------------------------------Matchup #1------------------------------------------------ Super Bowl XVII January 30, 1983 - Rose Bowl Stadium, Pasadena, CA Washington Redskins 27, Miami Dolphins 17 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_Hrv5TNb2Y Highlights Ended strike-shortened season Fulton Walker 98-yd kickoff return TD Redskins scored 17 unanswered points in 2nd half First Super Bowl win for Washington MVP: RB John Riggins Super Bowl XXIX January 29, 1995 - Joe Robbie Stadium, Miami, FL San Francisco 49ers 49, San Diego Chargers 26 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjY3hWbwioA Highlights 49ers favored by 18.5 points [largest margin in SB history] One of least watched SBs in history Steve Young: 6 TD passes Fifth Super Bowl win for San Francisco MVP: QB Steve Young ------------------------------------------------Matchup #2------------------------------------------------ Super Bowl I January 15, 1967 - Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Los Angeles, CA Green Bay Packers 35, Kansas City Chiefs 10 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk1_DlMapLo Highlights Known as AFL-NFL World Championship Game Willie Hood: 50-yard INT return TD Packers scored 21 unanswered points in 2nd half First Super Bowl win for Green Bay MVP: QB Bart Starr Super Bowl XLVIII February 2, 2014 - MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ Seattle Seahawks 43, Denver Broncos 8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bu44MxIU_XM Highlights First SB played in outdoor, cold weather stadium Broncos #1 offense vs. Seahawks #1 defense First play from scrimmage: Seahawks safety [fastest score in SB history] First Super Bowl win for Seattle MVP: LB Malcolm Smith
