stevestojan Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Well, the bills were heavy favorites in the first one and lost a close one. They were then shalacked in the next 3. I think you know my answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ofiba Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 More embarrassing, bills, cause we were in the superbowl and lost em all. Better accomplishment, bills, cause we actually got there 4 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezmid Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Definately Eagles. They had homefield each of those three years and couldn't do it. At least we always got it done at home. Plus, we were underdogs for 3 out of 4 of the Superbowls. The Eagles were favored in all three of their NFC Championship games. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corp000085 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 I think its equally bad. It sucks to think that the bills were 0-4, but now that you look back, i think that most of us are proud of those teams. The eagles lost 3 straight at home. That's pathetic. I'm just rooting for the pats to lose a step next year. The bills string of 4 straight AFC championships hopefully won't ever be touched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 sorry, this is like asking the question "which nut would you rather have sliced off -- the left or the right?" c'mon, folks...who fuggin' cares? the bills have still done something no team has ever done -- win four consecutive conference championships. for all of the new england "dynasty" talk, they're only halfway there. (no, i'm not suggesting i'd rather have the super bowl losses -- just putting things in perspective.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kasper13 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 More realistically it should look like this....... Buffalo Bills 2 AFL Championships (1964, 1965) 4-1 AFC Championship Games 0-4 Super Bowls (lost 4 straight 1990-1993) Philadelphia Eagles 3 NFL Championships (1948, 1949, 1960) 2-3 NFC Championship Games (lost three straight 2001-2003) 0-2 Super Bowls Draw your own conclusions.

Bills 0-4 Super Bowls Eagles 1-3 NFC Championships, 0-1 Super Bowl 232709[/snapback] Neither. The most embarrassing thing is the teams that have never made it to the SB and have been around a while....

SoCal Pat Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 That's heavy? 232773[/snapback] Absolutely. Think of how often you see arguably two of the top teams in the NFL in the regular season, and what the line is for such a game. It's rarely, if ever, more than a FG either way. If the game is truly a matchup of the two best teams, the spread should never be more than 3-4 points. If it isn't, then one of the teams is perceived as lucky to be there, and will likely be blown out. As it stands, the Giants covering the 6.5 (don't think it was ever readily available at 7 at any point, but I could be wrong) and winning outright probably stands as one of the top 2-3 Super Bowl "upsets" of all time. In fact, I don't believe an NFC team has ever covered a bigger number and won outright in the Super Bowl than the 1990 Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
