I think 2011 Giants defied more odds than 2007 Giants. ‘11 Giants had to play Falcons in wildcard, then go to Lambeau against 15-1 Packers, then go to San Francisco to play #1 defense in the league, and then of course upsetting New England once again.
That post-season was just an all-around let down. Dallas was projected to be in the Super Bowl, Brett Favre was retiring from the Packers and lost the NFC Championship game, and NE was supposed to go undefeated. All of those things ended in heartbreak.
Big Ben with that ankle tackle with 1:14 left in the 4th against the Colts might be the most underrated, clutch play by any Quarterback in NFL Post-Season history
They were also not that good a team in the regular season. 1997 Broncos went 12-4, and had the leagues #1 offense. 2010 Packers never trailed by more than 7 points the entire season.
@@michaeljones155 - Makes me even angrier as a Cowboys fan. Jason Garrett was more concerned about becoming a head coach than winning as a coordinator (even that was a title he didn't deserve). Too much circus and county club atmosphere in Dallas made it impossible to win, even when they had some nice talent. T.O. was arguably the best WR in the league, and they didn't want to give him the ball...because, he was T.O. Self defeating idiots.
They would be the first in the sixteen game season I believe and fact check me on this but the 1972 dolphins went 17 or 16 games to get their undefeated season. that is why
Best thing to happen to the '07 Giants was that last regular season Sunday night game against the Patriots. The Giants had the 5-seed locked up win or lose. They could have rested players but they said "bullshit, we're playing all out to win". They came up short at 38-35 and the Patriots went 16-0. But afterward the Giants knew that after that performance they could go up in the playoffs against anybody.
its actually 8. Everybody forgets that Kansas City was a wildcard when they played in super bowl iv...i don't know why..played the Minnesota Vikings and Kansas City won

Think the 2000 NY Giants were just happy to just be going to the Super bowl that year. Someone termed them the worse NFC team ever assembled to ever be represented in a Super Bowl. Nothing was going through that ravens defence that season.
I got to put the 2020 Buccaneers as one of the most surprising Wild Card teams to win the Super Bowl. They were completely dismantled by the Saints in the regular season (twice), then were able to defeat three future HOF quarterbacks in the postseason. Then to exact complete destruction on the favored Pat Mahomes-led Chiefs offense in the Super Bowl was just shocking. Although, the 2007 G-Men languishing through the better part of the regular season, then "powering on" at the end and defeating the undefeated Patriots, was the most impressive Wild Card team I've ever witnessed.
I remember that Steelers Bengals game so clearly. Changed the rules on tackling QBs forever and took a huge chunk out of his great career. He was on fire that year. And R.I.P. Chris Henry
A great Wild Card team of the 1970s and the early 1980s were the Houston Oilers w Earl Campbell and Bum Phillips. They just could not get past those mighty Steelers teams...
The 1980 Raiders stand out for me, not only were they picked to miss the playoffs,, but the majority of prognosticators predicted a dead last finish in the AFC West. And oh yeah,, "tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree", unforgettable
As a pats fan, The Giants post season run in 2007 was amazing. Although it hurt losing to them, it was a great game and they played their hearts out. The 2011 run I thought was much better, although they weren’t a wild card team that year, they should’ve been at 9-7. But watching them beat down that Packers team in GB, and going all the way to SF and beating them there was amazing. I was bitter after the 2nd SB loss but I will always respect the Giants.
2005 Steelers probably wouldn't have even beaten the Bengals had Palmer not gotten hurt. Palmer gashed that defense that year and if the first play is any indicator he'd have gashed their defense again. The Steelers were the best team in the league that year, but they had a real matchup problem with the Bengal's offense.
@@bengalsfanaz I know. The "Tom Brady" rule was implemented in 2009 due Brady missing the 2008 season when he was hit in the knee while he was in the pocket
The Steelers played very dirty at that time. Hines Ward and Joey Porter were two of the dirtiest players at the time. The refs always looked the other way too, when they were winning championships.
2007 Giants is undoubtedly one of the biggest underdog stories in all of sports history. First they beat 9-7 Bucs who got hot late in the season, then they beat NFC's #1 seed, the 13-3 Cowboys who looked very good and were favourites from NFC to go to the Superbowl, shocked everyone. Then they beat 14-3 Packers in one of the coldest games of all time. And on top of all that, in the Superbowl they beat 18-0 Patriots (which up until the Superbowl, was considered the greatest team of all time) Cowboys were heavily favoured to beat them, couldn't do it. Packers were favourite to beat them, couldn't do it. And Patriots were already considered a Superbowl winners, and still couldn't get it done. Just phenomenal
Yeah I hate to break it to you but Joe Montana, Dan Marino, Joe Namath, and John Elway did an event with the NFL where they all literally said they wish they had these rules back then because it wouldn't have ended their career when they all wanted to keep going.
In 1975 I was a little kid. My best buddy, who was 2 yrs older than me, loved the Steelers. I lived in Milwaukee, so I should have been a Packers fan but I was 7. I didn't like green. Stupid? Yeah, but again I was a little kid. I liked, UGH I HATE even admitting this, I liked the Vikings. Fran Tarkenton, Chuck Foreman, and the helmet looked cool. So when they played each other and the Steelers WON AGAIN, I was crushed. Now HEH HEH HEH HEH, as a Packers fan....LOSE Vikings LOSE. But then the Packers who were not suppose to make it, DID MAKE IT, and BEAT the Steelers. My buddy has long since been moved, but it was so awesome to see us, the Packers as underdogs kick butt. That was a GREAT YEAR!
Steelers XL win is so stupid. That game has to go down as one of, if not the worst officiated game in NFL, let alone super bowl history. Game would've went to OT if not for the refs being morons. Doesnt help that the refs apologized after the game lmao
@@jackkaczmarski Tomlin ran out of luck, and Mendelhson gave away the game, the Steelers had every chance to turn the tables but they messed it up every time. 😣
Let me see here. The first "non-divisional winner" to go all the way was the Kansas City Chiefs, but they weren't a "Wild Card" team because the term didn't exist then. By that logic the first two World Championships of Pro Football were not Super Bowls because the term didn't exist then, except in the mind of Lamar Hunt. "Super Bowl" became the official name of that contest beginning with the third annual game. The only reason the Chiefs got to the playoffs during the 1969 season was because the AFL wanted an extra playoff weekend in it's last year before the merger. The Chiefs earned the chance to redeem their loss to the Packers in that first Championship. They beat the world champion Jets and then beat the Raiders who had beat them twice during the season. The Vikings had an awesome defense, one of the best in NFL history, but their offense could only produce 7 points in a 23-7 loss to the Chiefs in Super Bowl IV.
The 2005 Steelers defied no odds. They were coming off a 15-1 season the year prior, dropped a few games because Ben was injured, and finished 11-5 which is usually good enough to win a division and get a 3 or 4 seed but lost a tie breaker to Cincy. That team was good and better than people were willing to credit them for. But they actually almost choked away the Super Bowl and got bailed out by the refs.
3:45 such a dirty ass move. He knew exactly what he was doing. Wrapped his arm around his leg to keep it anchored and rolled all his weight sideways into his knee.
That’s pretty cool for big Raji, getting what ended up being a game-sealing pick 6 in the conference final then your team closes it out and wins the big one
The 2020 buccners are the seventh wild card team to win a super bowl -beat wahington 31-23 -beat new orleans 30-20 -beat green bay 31-26 -beat kanas city 31-9
The Ravens vs. NYG was 1st Wild Card team ever FAVORED to win Supe... 3 points, but some Vegas shops put out -3.5 and about half of the offshore shops had -4 before kickoff. They cleaned up as 65% tickets took Collins and Giants.
@@kalibakingJesustha1 I never said the Rams were the number 1 seed. What I said was that they weren't a wild card team. In the current format only the 4-7 seeds are wild card teams. 1-4 seeds aren't wild card teams because they automatically qualified for the playoffs by winning their division
5 ปีที่แล้ว +2
crazy how the goal posts are in the middle of the end zone back in the days. wonder if anyone ever ran into them during a play lol
Bravo! Idiots like this TH-cam account deserve no sympathy whatsoever! You don’t win the division, then you’re a wildcard team even if it isn’t referred to as such. Another reason why the Chiefs wildcard rampage was ignored might have something to do with it happening BEFORE the NFL/AFL merger. In fact, the Chiefs ass whooping of the Vikings was the final game before the merger.
Not really sure though. And if it were true, the NFL made it up for the Steelers after letting the Cheatriots get away with it the year before, snatching the Steelers' playbook to defeat them in the AFC championship. The bastards knew in advance any play the Steelers were going to use. That year belonged to the Steelers and Big Ben's amazing debut and it was shamelessly stolen from them.
2010 Packers won games by an average score of 24-15, which based on the point differential formula, gave them an expected W-L record of 12-4, despite going 10-6, had the second lowest scoring defense in the league that year, and led the NFL in passer rating differential. That team was actually very dominant, when compared to the others on this list.
2005 and 2012 broncos nearly went to the Superbowl each time and had good teams, but we always messed up somewhere. We also had to play the freaking 14 - 2 colts and the undeafeated Patriots.
@@holly03282008 Wrong. Denver crapped the bed the final 3 games and not only lost the division to San Diego, but missed the playoffs finishing 8-8. And Shanahan (Kyle's father) got fired in the offseason.
‘97 Broncos and 00’ Ravens have less merit since they played a home game in the wild card round (both were the 4 seed) due to different divisional alignments at the time.
Just goes to show you that it is possible for most any team that makes the playoffs to advance to the S.B....that also speaks volumes for the Pats...the facts,stats speak for themselves behind the tandem of coach & Q.B. Billicheck&Brady after a winning season coming up the winningest team in N.F.L.history...9 appearances..6 super bowl wins...only other team to do have 6 is Pittsburgh but did that in 35 yrs.!!
18-1 is worse than 28-3. How do you win 17 straight games, be undefeated, and lose to a wildcard team in the most important game of the year. At least the Falcons weren’t favored to win. Pats could’ve had the best record in NFL history but blew it lol.
It's because they were listening into the opponents radios to know their plays ahead of time, later confirmed by the NFL. They said NE knew NYs play that won the game, but their was an apparent audible on the field that beat their coverage. That's why NE kept winning and NY exposed their fowl play. NE always cheats. Isn't this common knowledge at this point?
The 2010 Packers are honestly underrated. They never trailed by more then 7 the whole year and are the only team in history to do so. They were the first NFC team to win the Superbowl as a 6th seed Wildcard. They had to defeat the top 3 seeds in the NFC on the road to advance to the Superbowl. 3rd seed Philly (Wildcard) 1st seed Atlanta (Divisional) 2nd seed Chicago (NFC Title Game) AND defeat the 2nd AFC seed Steelers who had a fierce defense that year and already had immense playoff experience under Tomlin and Ben winning two Superbowls already. Plus they had tons of playmakers, Rodgers, Finley, Nelson, Jennings, Jones, Woodson, Shields, Nick Collins.
The giants beat the undefeated pats after being a wild card. Sounds like a legend
almost better upset than cavs beating 73 win warriors after being down 3-1.
Where are they now?
@@tonyvillena1293 the world may never know
I mean if it wasn't for how lucky the win was. If they won with better football instead of the helmet catch then I agree.
I don't even care how they won it a win is a win. It was epic how they won it also. Beating a team that top notch and undefeated.

By "wildcard team" they mean a team that didn't win their divison. The 2011 Giants won their division.
07 Giants run was the best ever by far. Took out the Bucs, 13 - 3 Cowboys, 13 - 3 Packers in a supremely cold game then of course the 18 - 0 Pats
Yep not to mention people didn't even think they would make the playoffs

They were coming off a 15-1 season the year prior, dropped a few games because Ben was injured, and finished 11-5 which is usually good enough to win a division and get a 3 or 4 seed but lost a tie breaker to Cincy. That team was good and better than people were willing to credit them for. But they actually almost choked away the Super Bowl and got bailed out by the refs.
Wildcard Super Bowl Losers:
1975 Cowboys
1985 Patriots
1992 Bills
1999 Titans
Didn't know that. Thanks
Honestly feel like the 2019 Niners could have a great shot to be #7 if they don’t win their division,
Met Jim Plunket in San Jose. He seemed pissed but still gave an autograph. Classy guy
As a Houstonian it's great to see we were still choking at home in the playoffs even back then
If we enter to the playoffs is going to happen again, Raider Nation ☠☠
Not this year lol
Maybe after the year they are in Las Vegas
We were close though...we had many chances but blew it...
Titans are winning the NBA world Super Bowl.
LMAO
So many great QBs no longer in the game. Bradshaw, Favre, Elway, Manning (both I guess lol).
And to think in just a couple years we are gonna have to add Brees, Brady, and Roethlisberger to that list. So sad..
Eli wasn't great.
Most remarkable of these easily the 2007 New York Giants
3:45 such a dirty ass move. He knew exactly what he was doing. Wrapped his arm around his leg to keep it anchored and rolled all his weight sideways into his knee.
That’s pretty cool for big Raji, getting what ended up being a game-sealing pick 6 in the conference final then your team closes it out and wins the big one
The 2020 buccners are the seventh wild card team to win a super bowl
-beat wahington 31-23
-beat new orleans 30-20
-beat green bay 31-26
-beat kanas city 31-9
Oh man when Bettis ran over Urlacher!... Just.....oh man!
Unforgettable.
3:15 is that Mr Incredible😂😂😂
5:10 New York Giants 2007 playoff run was the one of the greatest of all tim
Yeah, Eli and his 22 INT's.
Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.
I remember watching all these games. Man I'm getting old.
Also the 2012 Baltimore Ravens.
They win their division/ Wild Card : Means that they snuck in the playoffs and lost division so they played away from home /
They won their division
We all love wild cards and underdogs!
The Ravens vs. NYG was 1st Wild Card team ever FAVORED to win Supe... 3 points, but some Vegas shops put out -3.5
and about half of the offshore shops had -4 before kickoff. They cleaned up as 65% tickets took Collins and Giants.
@@holly03282008 Great information!
Take this statement with some grains of salt but I FORGOT more about the NFL then 25 guys could ever learn in one lifetime!
@@holly03282008 Haha Got it. 👌
Titanup baby
We beat the patriots💪🏻
I love Hank Strams enthusiasm. Shit was legendary.
This is the best NFL channel.
7:20 Made me smile
But the 2005 Steelers only won the super bowl because of trash refs, and they admit they ruined the game
YES I am salty
Hell they probably wouldn’t have even beaten the bengals had Palmer not got hurt
@@clark2501 that cheap shot on Palmer still gets to me 😡
@@clark2501 Nah, Palmer never was SB nor playoffs material. He would have crumbled anyway that night. The Steelers' defense was awesome.
Seahawks fan
Ok we still won lmao
Now 7 after the Bucs
Just realized 3 years In a row a wild card team won it probably will happen this year as well
It wouldn't be 3 years in a row. It would be the second time in 3 years. Rams weren't a wildcard team last year
@@secondchances1232 yes they were bro??😂 packers were the 1 seed
@@kalibakingJesustha1 I never said the Rams were the number 1 seed. What I said was that they weren't a wild card team. In the current format only the 4-7 seeds are wild card teams. 1-4 seeds aren't wild card teams because they automatically qualified for the playoffs by winning their division
crazy how the goal posts are in the middle of the end zone back in the days. wonder if anyone ever ran into them during a play lol
Hurt many a player I remember
They were not called Wildcard Teams, but the Kansas City Chiefs were the first non division winner to win the Super Bowl
Bravo! Idiots like this TH-cam account deserve no sympathy whatsoever!
You don’t win the division, then you’re a wildcard team even if it isn’t referred to as such.
Another reason why the Chiefs wildcard rampage was ignored might have something to do with it happening BEFORE the NFL/AFL merger. In fact, the Chiefs ass whooping of the Vikings was the final game before the merger.
I remember when the Steelers and the refs won SB XL
Being a Seahawks fan I don't talk about that one.
Lol so mad
So blatant and the NFL didn't suffer at all.
Cry loser
Not really sure though.
And if it were true, the NFL made it up for the Steelers after letting the Cheatriots get away with it the year before, snatching the Steelers' playbook to defeat them in the AFC championship. The bastards knew in advance any play the Steelers were going to use.
That year belonged to the Steelers and Big Ben's amazing debut and it was shamelessly stolen from them.
As a baseball/football fan, I love hearing “Holy Toledo!”
2010 Packers won games by an average score of 24-15, which based on the point differential formula, gave them an expected W-L record of 12-4, despite going 10-6, had the second lowest scoring defense in the league that year, and led the NFL in passer rating differential. That team was actually very dominant, when compared to the others on this list.
2005 and 2012 broncos nearly went to the Superbowl each time and had good teams, but we always messed up somewhere. We also had to play the freaking 14 - 2 colts and the undeafeated Patriots.
The views on this are about to go up after today with the Titans advancing to the AFC title game over the Ravens (1/11/20)
After watching this video this gives me hope that maybe the cowboys can maybe win the super bowl as the wildcard this year
Tampa can do it this year
Number 7 they did it😋😋😬😬
With me being a packer fan now knowing that we got beat by a wild card team in the playoff almost made me throw my iPad on the ground
We’re winning the super bowl this year!💯🧀🏆🏆🏆🏆
I remember going to the wildcard game in 2013 when ravens played the colts, which was also Ray Lewis’ last ever home game
Titan up!!!!
Saturday night in Foxboro an ass whooping is coming.
They lost
Imagine not making the playoffs...
3:21 When u throw a 50/50 ball in madden
I remember the 2008 patriots were 11-5 and still didn’t get a playoff spot. And that was without Tom Brady
The one year the AFC was decent 😂
And DEN Broncos went 11-5 around that time and sat home!!!
This year Dolphins went 10-6 and got eliminated from playoff contension
@@holly03282008
Wrong. Denver crapped the bed the final 3 games and not only lost the division to San Diego, but missed the playoffs finishing 8-8. And Shanahan (Kyle's father) got fired in the offseason.
‘97 Broncos and 00’ Ravens have less merit since they played a home game in the wild card round (both were the 4 seed) due to different divisional alignments at the time.
15 years later and I still celebrate the Kimo von Oelhoffen hit on Palmer. Priceless
@@secondchances1232 nope. Fuck palmer and all cincinnati fans
@@secondchances1232 im starting to think we're not friends. Lolol idgaf what you think. Btw, the hit wasn't dirty
@@secondchances1232 there was no intent either. You're just being a homer. Glad I can ruffle your feathers
and now the 2020-21 ravens
NOPE
But the 2012-2013 ravens
They won their division/ He clearly said an “While stop boasting a team because they didn’t win their division.
They didn't win, the bengals won the division that season
7 now.
It’s actually 7 now
its actually 8.. super bowl iv kansas city was a wildcard and won
@@bevofox7945 they literally explained in this video why KC wasnt one....
6:12 - the wild card beating the "perfect" Patriots was just *SOOO* satisfying!
Just goes to show you that it is possible for most any team that makes the playoffs to advance to the S.B....that also speaks volumes for the Pats...the facts,stats speak for themselves behind the tandem of coach & Q.B. Billicheck&Brady after a winning season coming up the winningest team in N.F.L.history...9 appearances..6 super bowl wins...only other team to do have 6 is Pittsburgh but did that in 35 yrs.!!
@@gregoryryan5280
Yeah, but everyone knows that the Patriots received a lot of help from above, and I don't mean god.
You know you're a hardcore fan when you're sitting watching your team play and the snot on your mustache has frozen.
Titan up
18-1 is worse than 28-3. How do you win 17 straight games, be undefeated, and lose to a wildcard team in the most important game of the year. At least the Falcons weren’t favored to win. Pats could’ve had the best record in NFL history but blew it lol.
18-1 tho
Farleyyyyyyy My bad, I fixed it
It's because they were listening into the opponents radios to know their plays ahead of time, later confirmed by the NFL. They said NE knew NYs play that won the game, but their was an apparent audible on the field that beat their coverage. That's why NE kept winning and NY exposed their fowl play. NE always cheats. Isn't this common knowledge at this point?
Titans
AlohaRoast I swear I see you everywhere’s
The 2010 Packers are honestly underrated.
They never trailed by more then 7 the whole year and are the only team in history to do so.
They were the first NFC team to win the Superbowl as a 6th seed Wildcard.
They had to defeat the top 3 seeds in the NFC on the road to advance to the Superbowl.
3rd seed Philly (Wildcard)
1st seed Atlanta (Divisional)
2nd seed Chicago (NFC Title Game)
AND defeat the 2nd AFC seed Steelers who had a fierce defense that year and already had immense playoff experience under Tomlin and Ben winning two Superbowls already.
Plus they had tons of playmakers, Rodgers, Finley, Nelson, Jennings, Jones, Woodson, Shields, Nick Collins.
I honestly still cannot believe this is a TH-cam channel and some weekly tv show.
Almost 1999 titans and 2017 jags
