Homey D. Clown Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 On my way in to work this morning, a great topic came up on the local morning sports show, which was the worst superbowl winning team in NFL history, I thought it was an interesting look into some of the teams that won. My first pick was the 2005 Steelers, and really had to think about this one. Who would you pick as the worst?
Kirby Jackson Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 That was the 1st team that popped in my head. I remember them barely getting into the playoffs and then getting hot.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Whatever team Trent Dilfer QB'ed. The Ravens? Brian Billick probably the worst coach to win a SB too. PTR
Dean Cain Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 The '01, '03, '04 Spygate Patriots. They won all three Super Bowls by 3 points each.
Gugny Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 The '01, '03, '04 Spygate Patriots. They won all three Super Bowls by 3 points each. Wouldn't the keyword, here, be "WON?"
prissythecat Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Didn't the Giants win the Superbowl with a 9-7 team? That was also a "relatively" bad team that just got hot at the right time and got lucky with a sticky helmet catch.
Max997 Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) 2005 Steelers and Colts when they beat Bears I know the Colts had Manning but their defense was terrible and they lucked out by getting the Bears Edited August 20, 2013 by Max997
Rico Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Easily the 2006 Colts. Flukiest ever, very lucky to go up against friggin Rex Grossman & Lovie.

tennesseeboy Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Boy..I wish we had been the worst team to win the superbowl instead of maybe the best team to ever lose a superbowl (against the Giants).
Like A Mofo Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 The 9-7 Giants. We have a winner! How about the 10 win Ravens this past season?
Billshank Redemption Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 I agree with the colts. I remember they had like the 31st ranked defense or something just pitiful like that. Manning just plain and simple put the team on his back.
Kirby Jackson Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Boy..I wish we had been the worst team to win the superbowl instead of maybe the best team to ever lose a superbowl (against the Giants). This x 10000000000000
metzelaars_lives Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Whatever team Trent Dilfer QB'ed. The Ravens? Brian Billick probably the worst coach to win a SB too. PTR Come on man. Along with the '85 Bears, the greatest defense of my lifetime. I know it's cliche to cite Dilfer as the worst Super Bowl winning QB but that team was awesome. They beat the crap out of a Giants team that just beat the crap out of the Culpepper/Moss/Carter Vikings the week before. They were not an offensive juggernaut (although they did have two hall of famers on offense- Jonathan Ogden and Shannon Sharpe- not to mention Jamal Lewis in his prime) but if a team had as good an offense as any in NFL history and an average defense, something tells me you wouldn't have mentioned them here. Boy..I wish we had been the worst team to win the superbowl instead of maybe the best team to ever lose a superbowl (against the Giants). Uhhh the 16-0 Patriots? The 2007 Patriots were easily the most dominant regular season football team I've ever seen.
Rubes Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Didn't the Giants win the Superbowl with a 9-7 team? That was also a "relatively" bad team that just got hot at the right time and got lucky with a sticky helmet catch. Yeah, but they get a pass because they, you know, beat the Pats*.
metzelaars_lives Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 We have a winner! How about the 10 win Ravens this past season? This year's Ravens team is in the conversation. But it's such a layered conversation because they beat the heavily favored Broncos and Patriots on the road. It was a fantastic playoff run. Are we talking worst regular season team? Because by the time they got to the Super Bowl, they were a hell of a football team. Same with the two Giants teams of the last decade. The '01, '03, '04 Spygate Patriots. They won all three Super Bowls by 3 points each. I would have to say the '01 Patriots are your winner. The '03 and '04 teams were great teams and were heavily favored in the Super Bowl, but the first team that beat the Rams was really flukey. That's my final answer. I'm out.
The Wiz Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 I don't really know what most people read as the worst team to win a superbowl but I'm going with the 2002 Bucs. Just came out of no where from 5-11 to finish 11-5 then put up a 7-9, 5-11 the next two years. Just seems like the team got it together for that one year and then disappeared.
