My physical therapist when I tore my ACL played in the freezer bowl. Was a wide receiver for the Bengals. Told me they turned the heat up in the other locker room so it was harder for them to adjust to the cold lol
@Peyton Farley F*** SB52 .. we lost!! There was the AFC Champ Game Pats vs Colts in ..... ummmm.... when was that? 2006 or something. Pats lost 38-34 I think.
I think "The Comeback" game with the Bills vs. Oilers should be on here. I literally couldn't care less about either team, but that game gives me chills.
Yeah for sure. I think only reason it's not is cause the Bill's didn't end up winning. But you are right it was a great game. Idk if anybody else feels the same but to me football just hasn't been the same since 2009. Everything just seems too flashy anymore. Offense rules the game. I miss those 80s and 90s era games where it was hard nose, hardcore defenses. Touchdowns just seemed to mean more if that makes sense, it's hard for me to explain. It just seems like nowadays it's more about fantasy football and shootout type games. Yeah I know there were offensive giants in those eras but there were only a couple a year. Now it seems like over half the QBs have no problem throwing for 4000 plus yards every year. Getting 1200 yard receiving was a great year, now that's pretty much the standard and it used to be a great accomplishment to have 2 wr do it same year. Not anymore. I miss seeing those stud running backs. Running it right up the middle. Grinding for every yard. There are a handful these days but you dont see those 35-40 rushing attempts by a single back running behind a great fullback. Now most teams use 2 if not 3 and they all have a job. Your powerback, your speedy outside man and reciever/3rd down back. Idk the game just isn't the same. I know times change but it just doesn't seem like the heart of the sport isn't there. Players are so cocky and only care about their fantasy stats. Not caring about what can help team unless it involves them. So many divas. QBs lack overall skill across the league, its top heavy with the elite but then you have a couple good game managers but then huge dropoff in talent. Running backs outside the elite seem a dime a dozen. Very few strong possession receivers that aren't afraid to run across the middle and take out a safety with a strong catch. And dont even get me started on defenses. I know the rules favor offense but God, defense just seems soft. Defensive coordinators seem to not have any idea how to coach simple schemes. I sound like a bitter old man but I'm not haha I'm only 30 and like I said the game doesn't have the heart it once did. Sorry for rant
As a Niner fan, the 2009 Cardinals vs Steelers was one of the most incredible games I've ever seen. That game had EVERYTHING: Comebacks, explosive plays, defensive scores, controversial TDs, it was an all out SLUGFEST from start to finish. It wasn't a good half, or even a legendary comeback, it was an entire GAME. As a fan of the sport, anyone watching that one has to recognize the level of play in that game, and for it to be in a Super Bowl just elevates it even more in my book. Again, outside my own personal biased 49ers favorites, that game sticks out to me as the best one I've seen as a FOOTBALL fan. Epic battle both ways..
I can't believe the 2012 Broncos-Ravens playoff game isn't anywhere. A classic back-and-forth, double-overtime thriller in the freezing cold weather. Torrey Smith torching Champ Bailey. Flacco's hail mary to Jacoby Jones. Manning's interception in overtime. That game had it all. It should be top 5 imo.
How the hell are super bowls 10 and 13 not on the list???? You have two iconic franchises going head to head, 20 combined hall of farmers in 76 and two incredible Lynn Swann catches. Then in 79 you have whopping 22 hall of farmers involved and a close, high-scoring game. At least one of these games have to be on the list.
LOL. Exactly. That’s what the Cleveland players had to be thinking- “ Da hell you talkin’ about, Marty? We’re playing football here, not polishing silverware”. That speech is probably why Cleveland lost.
A game that definitely should've made this list was that September 1994 Patriots/Dolphins game where Dan Marino and Drew Bledsoe each threw for over 400 yards, and ending with the Dolphins winning 39-35.
The two greatest games I’ve ever seen was the AFC championship game ravens vs broncos in 2013 I think and the Cardinals vs packers in the divisional round in 2015 I think
The 2011 Saints Niners playoff game was the greatest game ever IMO. The game was close start to finish and then BOTH teams scored two TDs in the last four minutes, and the game ended on a epic throw and catch (The Catch III)
SB 43 has to be No1. 3 iconic plays of all time (Harrison pick 6, Fitzgerald go ahead TD, Holmes game-winning TD). Two great QBs. A bunch of hall-of-fame caliber players.
Humanbeing2420 Yeah I understand that feeling, Sorta like the previous year 2007 when I watched Kevin Harvick nose out Mark Martin for the 2007 Daytona 500 while the field was wrecking behind them,Different sport I know but after football starts the nascar season for me!!!!.
Biased much? That game was a failure of execution. Ravens gave up 2 return touchdowns, Manning had a bad pick 6 and another bad pick that lost in overtime, the Broncos secondary choked, John Fox sat on the ball to end the 4th quarter - it was a s*** show. The most intriguing part to me was the ridiculous length, going well into double overtime.
@@michaelscott4909 If choking makes a game bad, half of the games of this list shouldn't be here at all. Now, as a Broncos fan, I despise the fact that the game exists, but it's undeniably one of the greatest playoff games in NFL history.
The 1958 NFL Championship Game should be #1 for being a great game and its influence on the future of the NFL's rise to dominance. Three of my all-time favorite football games are the three matchups (2 of them were USFL) between Steve Young and Jim Kelly, especially the "No Punt Game."
It seems like people kinda forget how great Super Bowl 52 was. Backup Nick Foles vs Tom Brady looking to win back to back titles and 3 in 4 years. They matched each other throw for throw. A heavyweight fight until the very last play. Most yards in any game ever.
Broncos packers Super Bowl was a great game. Back and forth great plays, made by great players. Two great gun slingers ripping it. I think that game beats a few of these games. Also bills vs oilers. Huge comeback, but major meltdown.
it should be, honestly if super bowl XLII wasn't an upset against an undefeated team people wouldn't hold it as highly regarded as it is, Id put the catch over it
Harry Engel the Drive game shouldn’t be that high. The game is rather overrated and both teams have been in better playoff games. The next year’s AFC championship game between the same 2 teams was a more exciting game. Denver going up big, 21-3 and 28-10, and Cleveland inching their way back in. Byner was the main reason the browns were even back in position to tie as he making countless big plays catching and running, and finished with almost 190 yards from scrimmage. There were a lot of big plays from both sides, and Castile doesn’t get near enough credit for making a great defensive play. It’s always remembered as “The Fumble” and i bet most people don’t even remember the name of the guy making the strip. I also like the Drive 2 better than the Drive. Houston had a 15 point line early on but did what those Oilers team always did in those playoffs. Blow leads. On the final drive, Elway did an amazing job at helping Denver convert on both 4th and 6 and 4th and 10. And the FG was extra nerve wrecking if you were a broncos fan, the snap again was shaky. A bad snap earlier was the reason why Denver was behind 1 instead of tied. The Marathon at the Lake, the week before The Drive, was another classic. Cleveland looked dead in the water with about 4-5 minutes left, down 10, and Mark Gastineau certainly did his part to help hurt his team with the roughing the passer penalty on that 3rd down.
0:00 The Drive. 3:35 The 1971 AFC Divisional Playoffs (Miami vs. Kansas City). 6:10 The Immaculate Reception. 8:40 Super Bowl XLII. 12:11 The Epic In Miami. 15:18 Super Bowl XLIX. 18:47 Super Bowl XLIII. 22:15 The Ice Bowl. 26:17 The Greatest Game Ever Played. 29:54 Super Bowl LI.
The Packers and Redskins Monday Night Football game from 1983 should've been seriously considered for this list. That game had one of the wildest offensive shootouts in history, with both teams combining for 95 points, 771 yards passing, and 254 yards running.
You noticed that, too? Hahaha. I actually think that was the some deceptive stuff the NFL Network did. They were probably interviewing Atwater about another game, or asked him to talk about playing with John Elway, or something along those lines. Then they took that footage and inserted it there.
Yeah, I noticed that too - he may have been on the sidelines in Arkansas. Also, the hook and ladder was not Duper and Nat Moore. Duper was still in college!
I don’t get why the Chiefs vs. Rams (Week 11, 2018) game is not on this. It was one of the only games to have each team score 50+ points. Other than that, great list.
Maybe I’m biased as a ravens fan but I feel like ravens vs broncos in the 2012 divisional playoffs should atleast get a mention. Best game I’ve ever watched
I feel like Ravens vs. Broncos in the 2013 divisional round should at least get honorable mention. That game was one of the most ridiculous, and most entertaining games I've ever witnessed. But unfortunately, that game will probably be forgotten with time.
I found it weird how no one talks about how risky the throw was from big ben to santonio holmes. There were three defenders in that corner. If he had underthrown it, that's an easy int. That was a perfect throw.
As an Oiler fan, no doubt that the greatest Comeback of all time should be on here, when the Bills came back in the playoffs against the Oilers after being down 35-3 early in the 3rd quarter, and with a backup QB at that....
Yeah it absolutely belongs on this list. If they weren't gonna include at least one regular season game then the title of the video should just be top 10 playoff games of all time.
Most yards, second highest scoring super bowl, super bowl with the fewest punts(1) and an underdog team with a back up taking down the gold standard of winning over the last two decades and was the first Super Bowl victory for a team that’s been around since 1933. Absolutely should be on here
@@subscribetopewdiepieunsubs7765 When Eric Mangini left the Pats to coach the Jets, he blew the whistle that the Pats are cheating by filming other teams practices. in SB 52 Doug Pedersons Eagles rented a hotel and they held practice in a huge ball room so the patriots couldnt film them. No joke. And they beat them. And then after all them years and wins, the Pats get caught again 2019 vs the Bengals. They always cheated, and after spygate they never stopped.
As a kid the Chargers v Dolphins made me believe in miracles. They didn't show the missed field goals. I was 10 and everytime, there was a field goal attempt I prayed and said that I would never cuss again if the Dolphins miss the field goal and then the same if the Chargers made it. The Chargers one, helll yeah!!! Oh and the Eagles v Patriots SB should be on the list.
You could also make a case for Super Bowl XIII. Yes Pittsburgh led Dallas 35-17,but Dallas closed it to 35-31. It was a terrific close game much of the way between two legendary,mulitple championship teams.
The Tuck Rule game, 2001 Divisional Playoff between the Raiders & Patriots should have been on here. It was the beginning point of the Patriots Dynasty and had arguably the most controversial play ever in the NFL's history.
1. 1971 afc divisional playoff game dolphins vs chiefs/ longest game OT 2. 2008 super bowl 42 giants vs patriots/ greatest underdogs 3. 2017 super bowl 51 patriots vs falcons/ greatest comeback OT 4. 2018 chiefs vs rams/ 51 to 54 greatest shootout 5. 1972 afc divisional playoff game raiders vs steelers/ immaculate reception 6. 2018 super bowl 52 eagles vs patriots/ greatest play call ever 7. 1967 championship cowboys vs packers/ ice bowl worst weather conditions 8. 2002 afc divisional playoff game raiders vs patriots/ greatest robbery 9. 1966 giants vs washington/ 41 to 72 highest combined score 10. 1940 championship bears vs washington/ 73 to 0 largest margin
That was a great game. You never knew what was going to happen until the final seconds. Two completely different teams. Bellick and Parcels out coached the highest powered offense in the league.
This list should be revised and include the Rams vs Chiefs (2018) regular season game. That game is already in the books as one of the top historic games.
Thank you for the '06 AFC title game. I'm prejudiced of course, but I think it's one of the greatest games I've ever seen. There's no way the Colts should have won that game, the winning TD and the Jackson intercept were totally unreal.
@@indy_go_blue6048 me being a Colts fan and of course, a major hater of the Pat's, this was easily #1 for me. Even if I wasn't so biased this should still be top #3 easy. It still stands as the greatest comeback in AFC championship history.
Brett Patterson some other possible games could the the 2012 AFC Divisional (Ravens vs Broncos) and the 2009 NFC Wild Card (Cardinals vs Packers) or even the other Cardinals packers playoff game in 2015
My heart really goes out to Randy Moss. He got screwed out of a Superbowl appearance his rookie year by a coach who didn't know how to win big games, and then he went undefeated in Boston and finally made it to the Superbowl, and didn't get a ring.
Number 2 should be 1 because it was the first overtime championship in NFL history the 1958 game was alot more exciting tons of interceptions where thrown
The Catch game is not on this list? It's known by a phrase and it launched the beginning of the 49ers dynasty of the 80's, the beginning of the Cowboys slide in the same era, and also launched the legend of Joe Montana, arguably the best SB quarterback in NFL history not named Tom Brady. The "catch" by Dwight Clark is one of the most iconic moments in NFL history. Incredible!
1. Super Bowl XLIX 2. Super Bowl LI 3. Super Bowl XXXVIII 4. Super Bowl XXXVI 5. Super Bowl XXXIX 6. 2004 AFC Championship Game 7. 2001 AFC Championship Game 8. 2003 AFC Championship Game 9. 2014 AFC Championship Game 10. 2016 AFC Championship Game
The Ice Bowl should've been # 1. Secondly, how can you NOT have the 1974 AFC Divisional Playoff Game between the Oakland Raiders & the Miami Dolphins on this list. That was one of the greatest NFL Games I ever saw. I was ten years old and never forgot how awesome that game was.
that may be the WORST game of all time-who wants to see a 73-0 annihilation unless you're a fan of the team with the 73 (Bears)? Certainly the most one sided game ever.
They should have. Next time if they ever meet belichek again, hold practice in a hotel ballroom like Doug Pederson the year after. Took that cheating edge away. Noone wins like that and after they got caught AGAIN after the 1st Spygate, peoving they never stopped, I question every title they ever won under Belichek.
The biggest play in the Pats v Falcons Superbowl was Trey Flowers' sack of Matt Ryan that took the Falcons out of FG range. Without that, the Falcons run on third down then make it a two score game. As it was, you get the Hightower play and the Falcons punt. I can't believe they left all that out.
I'm sorry but.. the real turning point in that game is when hightower stripsacked ryan. Tom brady is the greatest of all time but common man no love for the D.... I mean brady on the second to last play almost threw a pick.
Thats the media. Pats fans recognize Hightower is a super bowl hero for TWO SUPERBOWLS. 49: where he benchpressed Okung off him with a messed up shoulder to stop Lynch to getting in the endzone. 1 play before the Butler pick. 51: Where he strip sacked Ryan
super bowl 43 is number 1, literally, the only thing it doesn't have is the upset. Records in the 99 yard td, drama in the cardinals comeback to lead the superbowl, the drive of the steelers to go 95+ yards, and the greatest game winner in the history of the NFL.
I think the 2014 AFC divisional round between the Patriots and Ravens should have been on this list. That entire game was incredible from start to finish. I would certainly pick that game over SB 51 and its damn close to SB 49.
Superbowl LI was the '58 Championship on steroids. It had the same stakes, the same comeback, hard drives, clutch plays, and overtime. However, there were fewer mistakes, less sloppy play, a greater lead to overcome, and a quarterback that now outshines Johnny U in every respect.
The title should say greatest playoff games. They left out the 83 packers vs redskins game. 48-47 on Monday night football. They need to get these titles right.
Yep. Rams beating the Chiefs 54-51 on 11/19/18 was pretty epic as well. Then there was Roger Staubach's last comeback vs the Redskins to win 35-34 in 1979. And the Clint Longley Thanksgiving Day 1974 comeback vs the Redskins was also memorable.
Dolphins-Jets in September 1986 at Giants Stadium, 51-45 Jets in OT. Wesley Walker has four TD catches, including one to force overtime and another to win the game.
In my humble opinion, what makes a game great is how emotionally riveting it is. There are two or three possible scenarios that will give a sports fan everlasting memories. The first scenario is when you have two all time greats, at the top of their game beating the hell out of each other, making impossible plays and constantly one-upping each other (a la Fraser-Ali). There’s really only one game here that meets that criteria, and that was the epic dolphins/chargers playoff game. You really can’t understand it if you haven’t watched the game. It was sports magic. And…my team lost. The next scenario is the great underdog story. There’s one game in all American sports that symbolizes this and that was USA-USSR hockey in 1980. I was 15. Best sports fan moment of my life. Which football game meets that criteria? Giants -pats. The first one. My team lost. Still hurts. But wow. What a moment. Lastly you might enjoy the “Rocky” scenario, the underdog who goes toe to toe with the greatest of all time, takes him to the wire. Could’ve won. Almost did. Controversy, etc. This would be the Steelers-Cardinals. I again had the misfortune of watching my team lose. You’d be justified in concluding that I have terrible luck here, but I did see the USA-USSR game, and I was on the winning side of a lot of the other games on this list so it hasn’t been all bad. I mean, I could be a Browns fan….
So they need to rename this list to great playoff games ever, since they didn't include a single regular season game, which you know countless fans can name epic ones worthy of it.
Super Bowl 52 Needs To Be on This List If This Was Updated Since It Was a Great Night To Be a Philadelphia Eagles Fan In a High Scoring Game Vs New England!
SB 51 is too high. Great comeback by the Pats. But the guy who said "this wasnt a historic Falcon meltdown, it was just great Patriot execution..." That could be the most ridiculous comment Ive ever heard on these. Of course it was almost flawless Patriot execution,& proved why Brady is GOAT,& Bellichek is the coaching version. Patriots have nothing to apologize for, they did what had to be done. But Atlanta completely choked that game away. Kyle Shannahans play calling, Matt Ryan, the Falcon defense all made multiple egregious mistakes. I'm probably forgetting some as well. It doesn't take anything away from the Patriots, that what great teams do...keep fighting,& capitalize on the opposition's mistakes. I have no dog in this fight, I'm a Bronco fan. But while you must give full credit to NE, ya also gotta recognize Atlanta froze up, & mention how they helped the Patriots a lot. You almost can't have a 25 pt 3rd qtr comeback, without help from the team ahead. Same thing with the Bills comeback from 35-3 in that Wild card round. Yes Buffalo was great, but Houston choked,& helped Buffalo out a lot.
No doubt none greater than the Pat's coming back in OUR FIRST OT SB AGAINST THE FALCONS, NOT 1 EVEN COMES CLOSE, THE GREATEST COME BACK OF ALL TIMES!!!!!
I still can't believe the Falcons didn't run down the clock, kick the field goal, and end the game after the Julio Jones catch. I mean, did they even want to win?
1974 divisional playoff between Oakland and Miami. Hands of Stone Clarence Davis denies Dolphins quest for 3rd straight Super Bowl title. A must somewhere on this list
The Ice Bowl is the definition of mental toughness
And wearing short sleeves in -40
Trey Bens I was cold watching this
My physical therapist when I tore my ACL played in the freezer bowl. Was a wide receiver for the Bengals. Told me they turned the heat up in the other locker room so it was harder for them to adjust to the cold lol
I agree with that. Players from both teams admit to not wanting to play that day because of the extreme cold weather.

The 1958 NFL Championship Game should be #1 for being a great game and its influence on the future of the NFL's rise to dominance. Three of my all-time favorite football games are the three matchups (2 of them were USFL) between Steve Young and Jim Kelly, especially the "No Punt Game."
It seems like people kinda forget how great Super Bowl 52 was. Backup Nick Foles vs Tom Brady looking to win back to back titles and 3 in 4 years. They matched each other throw for throw. A heavyweight fight until the very last play. Most yards in any game ever.
How did the Patriots not punt and lose???
I suppose you have to have at least an ounce of defense involved to call it a great game. This one didn't even have a milligram of defense.
@@indy_go_blue6048 that’s not true. The strip sack of Brady changed the game.
Broncos packers Super Bowl was a great game. Back and forth great plays, made by great players. Two great gun slingers ripping it. I think that game beats a few of these games. Also bills vs oilers. Huge comeback, but major meltdown.
The 58 game looks great in color
Agreed!!!!
'The Catch' should be on the list.
it should be, honestly if super bowl XLII wasn't an upset against an undefeated team people wouldn't hold it as highly regarded as it is, Id put the catch over it
Superbowl 52 was best arena league game ever played
NO!!! THAT GAME WAS DISGUSTING!!🖕
Hell no, that game was so overrated
Harry Engel the Drive game shouldn’t be that high. The game is rather overrated and both teams have been in better playoff games.
The next year’s AFC championship game between the same 2 teams was a more exciting game. Denver going up big, 21-3 and 28-10, and Cleveland inching their way back in. Byner was the main reason the browns were even back in position to tie as he making countless big plays catching and running, and finished with almost 190 yards from scrimmage. There were a lot of big plays from both sides, and Castile doesn’t get near enough credit for making a great defensive play. It’s always remembered as “The Fumble” and i bet most people don’t even remember the name of the guy making the strip.
I also like the Drive 2 better than the Drive. Houston had a 15 point line early on but did what those Oilers team always did in those playoffs. Blow leads. On the final drive, Elway did an amazing job at helping Denver convert on both 4th and 6 and 4th and 10. And the FG was extra nerve wrecking if you were a broncos fan, the snap again was shaky. A bad snap earlier was the reason why Denver was behind 1 instead of tied.
The Marathon at the Lake, the week before The Drive, was another classic. Cleveland looked dead in the water with about 4-5 minutes left, down 10, and Mark Gastineau certainly did his part to help hurt his team with the roughing the passer penalty on that 3rd down.
Yes, I'm a Coloradan, but may I just say objectively that John Elway was a beautiful athlete to watch. Just had that elite gift set.
It was so sad, at the beginning, the 3 huge losts at the Superbowl

As a Eagles Fan I'm Not Happy That SB 52 NOT on This List It Was Back and Forth Until The Last Play of The Game When My Eagles Won The SB!
I remember the broncos drive, me and my dad watching the game,RIP Dad🙏
The week 11 2018 Chiefs vs. Rams was probably the most entertaining. It would be interesting to see them redo these top ten.

The Packers and Redskins Monday Night Football game from 1983 should've been seriously considered for this list. That game had one of the wildest offensive shootouts in history, with both teams combining for 95 points, 771 yards passing, and 254 yards running.
It made the list of greatest QB duels!

Why is Steve Atwater talking about the 86 AFC Championship like he was there? He wasn't drafted until 89!
You noticed that, too? Hahaha. I actually think that was the some deceptive stuff the NFL Network did. They were probably interviewing Atwater about another game, or asked him to talk about playing with John Elway, or something along those lines. Then they took that footage and inserted it there.
Yeah, I noticed that too - he may have been on the sidelines in Arkansas. Also, the hook and ladder was not Duper and Nat Moore. Duper was still in college!
Thanks I was trying to figure that out myself. It might've been a clip from an interview out of context they threw into this segment.
Nat Moore and Tony Nathan I think it was
Yes!!! I had to look him up just to make sure I wasn't taking crazy pills
wide right, the catch, rams vs titans in the superbowl, biggest comeback in nfl history by the bills in the playoffs all deserved some love
I don’t get why the Chiefs vs. Rams (Week 11, 2018) game is not on this. It was one of the only games to have each team score 50+ points. Other than that, great list.
Michael Weaver it was made before the game but I think they’re just talking about postseason games
2 words regular season
"One of the only" doesn't mean anything.
@@siler7 still entertainment
Maybe I’m biased as a ravens fan but I feel like ravens vs broncos in the 2012 divisional playoffs should atleast get a mention. Best game I’ve ever watched
I just watched the KC vs Buffalo game yesterday. That game would be way up this list.
I 💯 agree
These top 10’s reminds me of Saturday mornings as a kid
Funny that they coudn't refer to the Greatest Game Ever Played by that name because they put it at #2.
I feel like Ravens vs. Broncos in the 2013 divisional round should at least get honorable mention. That game was one of the most ridiculous, and most entertaining games I've ever witnessed. But unfortunately, that game will probably be forgotten with time.
Greatest Comeback ever sure, idk about best game ever. Then again, 28 - 3 will never be forgotten
Probably wouldn't make many people's lists, but the game that got me into this sport was Jets 51, Dolphins 45, Round 3 1986.
Mile high Miracle should be on this list
Now this is something I like to see
That KC and Rams game with like 40 points for each team this past year was INSANE!
With the modern no defense NFL? Hell man, that's the norm.
You mean 50 points!
The Ravens/Broncos 2012 Divisional Round game should DEFINITELY be on this list!!
#4 still hurts so bad. I remember being on the verge of tears when Fitz took that slant for 55 yards
Maybe I'm biased, but the 2012 AFC Divisional Round between the Ravens & Broncos. That's the best non-Super Bowl NFL Game I've ever seen.

"There's a gleam!"
Lineman in the back: "WTF is he talking about?"
I found it weird how no one talks about how risky the throw was from big ben to santonio holmes. There were three defenders in that corner. If he had underthrown it, that's an easy int. That was a perfect throw.
As an Oiler fan, no doubt that the greatest Comeback of all time should be on here, when the Bills came back in the playoffs against the Oilers after being down 35-3 early in the 3rd quarter, and with a backup QB at that....
Yeah it absolutely belongs on this list. If they weren't gonna include at least one regular season game then the title of the video should just be top 10 playoff games of all time.
Let me guess: Super Bowl 49 or 51 is gonna be on top.
*After Watching* I knew it.
I personally loves Superbowl 38. First and Third quarter were all defenses while the second and fourth was all offense. I loved it.
super bowl 52 has the most yards of offence of any game ever
I still can't believe that the Pats didn't punt and Brady threw for 505 yards and they somehow lost.
Eagles Rule
Most yards, second highest scoring super bowl, super bowl with the fewest punts(1) and an underdog team with a back up taking down the gold standard of winning over the last two decades and was the first Super Bowl victory for a team that’s been around since 1933. Absolutely should be on here
Zachary Randolph-LaBerge Didn’t happen yet
@@subscribetopewdiepieunsubs7765 When Eric Mangini left the Pats to coach the Jets, he blew the whistle that the Pats are cheating by filming other teams practices. in SB 52 Doug Pedersons Eagles rented a hotel and they held practice in a huge ball room so the patriots couldnt film them. No joke. And they beat them. And then after all them years and wins, the Pats get caught again 2019 vs the Bengals. They always cheated, and after spygate they never stopped.
As a kid the Chargers v Dolphins made me believe in miracles. They didn't show the missed field goals. I was 10 and everytime, there was a field goal attempt I prayed and said that I would never cuss again if the Dolphins miss the field goal and then the same if the Chargers made it. The Chargers one, helll yeah!!!
Oh and the Eagles v Patriots SB should be on the list.
Super Bowl 52 Was a Great Game For Us Philadelphia Eagles Fans And Yes That Game Should Had Been On This List!
You could also make a case for Super Bowl XIII. Yes Pittsburgh led Dallas 35-17,but Dallas closed it to 35-31. It was a terrific close game much of the way between two legendary,mulitple championship teams.
The Tuck Rule game, 2001 Divisional Playoff between the Raiders & Patriots should have been on here. It was the beginning point of the Patriots Dynasty and had arguably the most controversial play ever in the NFL's history.
“There’s a gleam”
“let’s get the gleam alright”
1. 1971 afc divisional playoff game dolphins vs chiefs/ longest game OT
2. 2008 super bowl 42 giants vs patriots/ greatest underdogs

Super Bowl III Jets were a greater dog. Giants almost gave the Pats a loss at the end of the regular season
Terrible choices. Leaving super bowl 25 off this list is a travesty.
They just picked a lot of recent games. What a shock.
I don't think that Super Bowl 51 needs to be on the list. Yes it was a great comeback win for New England, but it's not the greatest game ever played.
That was a great game. You never knew what was going to happen until the final seconds. Two completely different teams. Bellick and Parcels out coached the highest powered offense in the league.
There were plenty of older games on there depending on how old you're wanting to see
Half the games were 35+ years ago.
@kevinpayton2664 Yes it was
This list should be revised and include the Rams vs Chiefs (2018) regular season game. That game is already in the books as one of the top historic games.
Games I would omit from the top ten
The Drive game
Immaculate Reception
Games I would add
1981 NFC title game
2006 AFC title game
Thank you for the '06 AFC title game. I'm prejudiced of course, but I think it's one of the greatest games I've ever seen. There's no way the Colts should have won that game, the winning TD and the Jackson intercept were totally unreal.
Exactly. Can't believe the 2006 AFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME isn't on here. Peyton Manning comes back from 19 in the 4th quarter against the Patriots.
@@indy_go_blue6048 me being a Colts fan and of course, a major hater of the Pat's, this was easily #1 for me. Even if I wasn't so biased this should still be top #3 easy. It still stands as the greatest comeback in AFC championship history.
Brett Patterson some other possible games could the the 2012 AFC Divisional (Ravens vs Broncos) and the 2009 NFC Wild Card (Cardinals vs Packers) or even the other Cardinals packers playoff game in 2015
Rams chief's 2018: hold my beer
Super Bowl 51 was so great that I actually changed the channel. Please. I had never done that before. Super bowl 13 should have been on here.
No the score was 35-17 in the 4th
My heart really goes out to Randy Moss. He got screwed out of a Superbowl appearance his rookie year by a coach who didn't know how to win big games, and then he went undefeated in Boston and finally made it to the Superbowl, and didn't get a ring.
Number 2 should be 1 because it was the first overtime championship in NFL history the 1958 game was alot more exciting tons of interceptions where thrown
Don't be blinded by nostalgia if that game happened yesterday would it still be called the greatest game ever played
The Catch game is not on this list? It's known by a phrase and it launched the beginning of the 49ers dynasty of the 80's, the beginning of the Cowboys slide in the same era, and also launched the legend of Joe Montana, arguably the best SB quarterback in NFL history not named Tom Brady. The "catch" by Dwight Clark is one of the most iconic moments in NFL history. Incredible!
No Steelers vs Ravens in the playoffs

@Derek Savage Super Bowl LII was rigged.
What’s it like only having 5 rings
TheGr8stManEvr pats fan?!
The Ice Bowl should've been # 1. Secondly, how can you NOT have the 1974 AFC Divisional Playoff Game between the Oakland Raiders & the Miami Dolphins on this list. That was one of the greatest NFL Games I ever saw. I was ten years old and never forgot how awesome that game was.
1940 NFL championship, because it will never happen again.
that may be the WORST game of all time-who wants to see a 73-0 annihilation unless you're a fan of the team with the 73 (Bears)? Certainly the most one sided game ever.
Through these shows I’ve noticed so many of the SB nation host’s such as Charlotte wilder, Matt Nuff it’s awesome!
Setting aside all bias, I think SB49 was the best football game I've ever seen.
I like these NFL compilations because they give 3rd rate, unknown comedians a platform to make the rest of us roll our eyes.
If only my Falcons won 😭💨
Better switch from falcons to United
They should have. Next time if they ever meet belichek again, hold practice in a hotel ballroom like Doug Pederson the year after. Took that cheating edge away. Noone wins like that and after they got caught AGAIN after the 1st Spygate, peoving they never stopped, I question every title they ever won under Belichek.
@@johnnolan33177 Amen, bro. No team in the 21st C with free agency and salary caps dominates the game for 2 decades unless they're cheating.
The biggest play in the Pats v Falcons Superbowl was Trey Flowers' sack of Matt Ryan that took the Falcons out of FG range. Without that, the Falcons run on third down then make it a two score game. As it was, you get the Hightower play and the Falcons punt. I can't believe they left all that out.
People like to ignore how bad of a choke that game was.
I'm sorry but.. the real turning point in that game is when hightower stripsacked ryan. Tom brady is the greatest of all time but common man no love for the D.... I mean brady on the second to last play almost threw a pick.
Thats the media. Pats fans recognize Hightower is a super bowl hero for TWO SUPERBOWLS. 49: where he benchpressed Okung off him with a messed up shoulder to stop Lynch to getting in the endzone. 1 play before the Butler pick. 51: Where he strip sacked Ryan
Watch NFL Turning Point for Super Bowl 51. They literally say the same thing you do. No need to complain.
What about they need a two point conversion to tie?
Well. that and the 4th and 3 conversion Brady to Dola.. it wasn't some amazing play but Everything started because of that HUGE conversion..
This whole discussion illustrates what made it so amazing...there were like 10 plays where if it goes differently, the Patriots don’t win.
super bowl 43 is number 1, literally, the only thing it doesn't have is the upset. Records in the 99 yard td, drama in the cardinals comeback to lead the superbowl, the drive of the steelers to go 95+ yards, and the greatest game winner in the history of the NFL.
I think the 2014 AFC divisional round between the Patriots and Ravens should have been on this list. That entire game was incredible from start to finish. I would certainly pick that game over SB 51 and its damn close to SB 49.
Superbowl LI was the '58 Championship on steroids. It had the same stakes, the same comeback, hard drives, clutch plays, and overtime. However, there were fewer mistakes, less sloppy play, a greater lead to overcome, and a quarterback that now outshines Johnny U in every respect.
The title should say greatest playoff games. They left out the 83 packers vs redskins game. 48-47 on Monday night football. They need to get these titles right.
Yep. Rams beating the Chiefs 54-51 on 11/19/18 was pretty epic as well. Then there was Roger Staubach's last comeback vs the Redskins to win 35-34 in 1979. And the Clint Longley Thanksgiving Day 1974 comeback vs the Redskins was also memorable.
Dolphins-Jets in September 1986 at Giants Stadium, 51-45 Jets in OT. Wesley Walker has four TD catches, including one to force overtime and another to win the game.
1983 MNF opener Cowboys-Redskins, 2000 Monday Night Miracle Dolphins-Jets, 1972 Namath vs Unitas Jets-Colts
In my humble opinion, what makes a game great is how emotionally riveting it is. There are two or three possible scenarios that will give a sports fan everlasting memories. The first scenario is when you have two all time greats, at the top of their game beating the hell out of each other, making impossible plays and constantly one-upping each other (a la Fraser-Ali). There’s really only one game here that meets that criteria, and that was the epic dolphins/chargers playoff game. You really can’t understand it if you haven’t watched the game. It was sports magic. And…my team lost. The next scenario is the great underdog story. There’s one game in all American sports that symbolizes this and that was USA-USSR hockey in 1980. I was 15. Best sports fan moment of my life. Which football game meets that criteria? Giants -pats. The first one. My team lost. Still hurts. But wow. What a moment. Lastly you might enjoy the “Rocky” scenario, the underdog who goes toe to toe with the greatest of all time, takes him to the wire. Could’ve won. Almost did. Controversy, etc. This would be the Steelers-Cardinals. I again had the misfortune of watching my team lose. You’d be justified in concluding that I have terrible luck here, but I did see the USA-USSR game, and I was on the winning side of a lot of the other games on this list so it hasn’t been all bad. I mean, I could be a Browns fan….
Gotta Add Chiefs vs Rams Monday night football to this list
Larry Csonka sure looks good for a guy who played in nfl when the uprights were on the goal line
Once again, the “helmet catch” doesn’t mean the game was all that great
Ryan exactly and then they leave the catch game
I remember exactly what I was doing when the Pats won Super Bowl 51 and I will never forget
Super Bowl 52 was infinitely better than 51.
How the Eagles were ahead throughout the whole thing
@@CarlosSotoFavelaCuevas the falcons were winning the whole time until OT
@@randomdudes3031 and they went on to win which is why it's the best unlike 52 where it had a lack luster ending
You sound like you're an Eagles fan.
49 was better than 51 and 52 tbh
So they need to rename this list to great playoff games ever, since they didn't include a single regular season game, which you know countless fans can name epic ones worthy of it.
Super Bowl 52 Needs To Be on This List If This Was Updated Since It Was a Great Night To Be a Philadelphia Eagles Fan In a High Scoring Game Vs New England!
...oh the Super Bowl XLIX... as great of a game as that was... that game still hurts as a Seahawks fan.
SB 51 is too high. Great comeback by the Pats. But the guy who said "this wasnt a historic Falcon meltdown, it was just great Patriot execution..." That could be the most ridiculous comment Ive ever heard on these. Of course it was almost flawless Patriot execution,& proved why Brady is GOAT,& Bellichek is the coaching version. Patriots have nothing to apologize for, they did what had to be done.
But Atlanta completely choked that game away. Kyle Shannahans play calling, Matt Ryan, the Falcon defense all made multiple egregious mistakes. I'm probably forgetting some as well. It doesn't take anything away from the Patriots, that what great teams do...keep fighting,& capitalize on the opposition's mistakes. I have no dog in this fight, I'm a Bronco fan. But while you must give full credit to NE, ya also gotta recognize Atlanta froze up, & mention how they helped the Patriots a lot. You almost can't have a 25 pt 3rd qtr comeback, without help from the team ahead. Same thing with the Bills comeback from 35-3 in that Wild card round. Yes Buffalo was great, but Houston choked,& helped Buffalo out a lot.
No doubt none greater than the Pat's coming back in OUR FIRST OT SB AGAINST THE FALCONS, NOT 1 EVEN COMES CLOSE, THE GREATEST COME BACK OF ALL TIMES!!!!!
I still can't believe the Falcons didn't run down the clock, kick the field goal, and end the game after the Julio Jones catch. I mean, did they even want to win?
1974 divisional playoff between Oakland and Miami. Hands of Stone Clarence Davis denies Dolphins quest for 3rd straight Super Bowl title. A must somewhere on this list
