Everyone seems to be on the Vikings' side here, but John Elway was the league MVP (admittedly undeserved over Jerry Rice) and the Vikings were only 8-7 in the regular season. I think the Vikes' magic had to run out at some point, and unless Anthony Carter went off like he did against San Francisco, ...

Perfectville: Population 2

We also came very close to a Scorigami. 40-22 had happened only once in NFL history before. Unfortunately we couldn't get a garbage touchdown out of Kenny Pickett that would have given us a 47-22 score and the first Super Bowl Scorigami since XLVIII (43-8).

- Should the Chiefs win, they will have the best winning percentage in Super Bowl history amongst teams who have been to at least three Super Bowls (5-1, 83%).

- Should the Eagles lose, they will become the fifth team to lose at least four Super Bowls (Vikings, Broncos, Bills, Patriots)

Aside from any "could've, should've"s about the Packers, here are the ones I'd love to have seen... 1987 NFC Championship Game - #4 New Orleans Saints (12-3) at #1 San Francisco 49ers (13-2) The best two teams in the league in 1987 both got knocked out by an 8-7 Minnesota team. That would ...

A better question might be, who was the last 2-way lineman? Someone who played on the offensive line and either defensive line or linebacker. E.J. Holub of the Kansas City Chiefs comes to mind.

I'd like to see neutral-site conference championship games. Make them like bowl games in college football. You can have the first two rounds at home stadiums, but neutral-site games would level the playing field. Teams like KC (or Brady-era NE) would have a more difficult time. You'd get a bigger va...
