Several all-time cla sics made the list, including the 2021 overtime thriller between Cincinnati and Kansas City. While obviously not a barn burner, the Rams-Buccaneers NFC title game showdown was a masterpiece for fans of defense. Led by future Hall of Famers Warren Sapp, John Lynch and Derrick Brooks, the Buccaneers shut down the Rams' "Greatest Show on Turf" offense for Paul George Jersey most of the game. With the Rams' defense also playing lights out, the Buccaneers' defense would need to shutout one of the greatest offenses of all-time in order to reach the Super Bowl. Unfortunately for them, the Buccaneers were victims of a perfectly-thrown pa s from Kurt Warner that fell into the waiting arms of Ricky Proehl, whose 44-yard touchdown catch propelled the Rams to the Super Bowl.The two most recent Super Bowl champions, Washington and San Francisco battled for the right to face the Raiders in Super Bowl XVIII. Down 21-0, the 49ers staged an epic rally behind Joe Montana's three fourth quarter touchdown pa ses. A controversial holding call against 49ers safety Ronnie Lott, however, allowed Washington to kick the game-winning field goal. It was one of three questionable penalties that went against the 49ers, who were then forced to watch as Washington was pummeled two weeks later by the Raiders.The 49ers used the experience to fuel their 1984 Super Bowl run. San Francisco lost just one game that season while winning the franchise's second of four Super Bowls during the decade. The 49ers' enjoyed an epic season by Joe Montana, who won Super Bowl MVP honors after scoring four touchdowns and ama sing 400 total yards.

In a game that was tabbed as "The Freezer Bowl," Anderson threw two touchdowns while leading the Bengals to their first Super Bowl. Anderson's pa ser rating was more than twice the amount of his counterpart, Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Fouts, who a week earlier helped lead the Chargers to an epic double-overtime win over the in balmy Miami. "Kenny's advantage was that he threw tight spirals," said Fouts, who said that throwing that day was like "throwing a shoebox in Blake Griffin Jersey the wind.""I didn't always throw spirals," . "In my mind, that was the biggest part of us losing the game."

Then-Raiders owner Al Davis was convinced that the Steelers grounds crew intentionally left the sidelines exposed on the eve of the AFC title game. The sidelines, which were e sentially ice rinks by kickoff, prevented the Raiders' from unleashing their deep pa sing attack that featured future Hall of Fame wideouts Fred Biletnikoff and Cliff Branch. The sidelines were bad, but the rest of the Three Rivers Stadium turf wasn't much better. The hard, slick surface led to the teams committing a combined 12 turnovers. The Steelers were able to get just enough points, however, with John Stallworth playing a key role in both of Pittsburgh's touchdown. His key block help spring Franco Harris free for a 25-yard score.

But on the Patriots two-point attempt, Brady's pa s intended for Gronkowski was tipped and intercepted by , sealing the Broncos' second Super Bowl berth in three years. Denver would defeat Carolina in Super Bowl 50 in Manning's final NFL game.The Steelers were coming off of a heartbreaking lo s to the Chargers in the '94 AFC title game. Against the Colts, they found themselves trailing 16-13 after Jim Harbaugh hit Floyd Turner for a 47-yard Rodney McGruder Jersey touchdown.
