10 Super Bowls That Everyone HATED

the Super Bowl the single most exciting event all year in the World of Sports or at least it's supposed to be the final score against five the Denver Broncos ten [Music] 's absolutely hate a bad Super Bowl so without further Ado let's take a look at 10 of the most hated Super Bowls of all time first up we have Super Bowl 24 which was played between the San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos back in 1990 which I suppose is a pretty easy Choice considering it was one of the most lopsided Super Bowls we have ever seen as evidenced by San Fran winning it 55-10 posting a 45-point margin of Victory the largest in Super Bowl history it wasn't exactly the most shocking outcome we'll admit despite both sides being the top seed in their conference and having a big name quarterback leading the charge Joe Montana for the Niners and John Elway for the Broncos San Francisco was the heavy favorites coming into this game the spread was nearly two touchdowns in most sports books at the time unfortunately it got ugly for the Broncos and fast in San Francisco jumped out to a 13-3 lead in the first quarter helped by a Bobby Humphrey fumble that shifted the balance of power in the game completely it was never close from their own out San Francisco went to the half up 27-3 and ultimately won 55-10 making it one of the least eventful Super Bowls we've ever seen coincidentally this wasn't the only Bronco Super Bowl that fans hated the next came in 2014 when Peyton Manning's Denver side squared up against the Seattle Seahawks led by the infamous legion of boom and a young Russell Wilson at quarterback don't think that John Elway is getting off scot-free in Super Bowl 48 either because he was the general manager of the team and the Executive Vice President of football operations and though he did eventually shake the choke artist label by quarterbacking two straight Super Bowl victories on its way into retirement this was a nice regression to the norm as the Broncos melted down in truly spectacular fashion and by the way it wasn't just the play on the field that everyone hated the NFL also made an extremely questionable decision to let the Giants host the Super Bowl at their outdoor 4 stadium in February need I remind you so the results were to stress leading up to the game about potential weather issues but luckily Mother Nature showed some mercy the same however cannot be said for the Seahawks though because this game was a no contest from the opening whistle on the first offensive play of the game the snap sailed past Manning into the back of the end zone for a safety and from that point on it was just all Seattle all in all it was one of the least entertaining Super Bowls we've seen especially considering the fact that it was all but over from the first play on I mean the Bronco cards were just one of two teams in the preceding 30 years to be held to less than 10 points at the Super Bowl truly a dubious distinction the Ravens giant Super Bowl in 2001 was none too popular in its own right either Baltimore came to the game as a slight favorite around three points or so but they absolutely smothered the Giants New York totaled just 152 yards of total offense the Third lowest in Super Bowl history surrendering four sacks and five turnovers along the way every single giant offensive possession ended with a punt or an interception and their only score came in the third quarter on a kickoff return for a touchdown once the Ravens were already up 17-nothing and of course Baltimore answered with a kickoff return of its own mere seconds later further cementing the never-end doubt status of this game the Ravens ended up taking it by a final score of 34-7 with its starting quarterback Trent Dilfer only completing 12 passes for 152 yards all in all this is definitely one of the most boring Super Bowls interestingly in the time since we've actually seen two more Super Bowls in which one of the teams failed to eclipse the 10-point threshold Super Bowl 53 in 2019 between the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams and Super Bowl 55 between the Buccaneers and Chiefs in 2020. unsurprisingly the public was not exactly enthralled with these Super Bowls the latter between Tampa Bay and Kansas City was one one of the most anticipated Super Bowls in recent memory people saw it as a potential passing of the torch moment in which Tom Brady who shocked Everyone by leaving the Bucks to the Super Bowl during his first season with the team might bend the knee to Patrick Mahomes and a Chiefs team that was looking to form a little dynasty of their own unfortunately for the Chiefs the Bucks defensive line had other plans and they absolutely dominated the game for the first time in the Patrick Mahomes era the Chiefs failed to score a touchdown in a full game this also marked the chief's first double-digit loss in the Mahomes era which in and of itself is a pretty insane statistic although the story lines around Brady winning the big one during his first season after his split with Bill Belichick were undeniably compelling the game itself was not particularly entertaining besides it isn't like there were all that many people sitting around hoping that Tom Brady would win another Super Bowl this was a pretty miserable viewing experience for anyone who wasn't a lifelong Tom Brady jock Rider or a bucks better the Super Bowl 50 3 which coincidentally involved Tom Brady as well was actually a pretty close game deep into the fourth quarter but my Lord horing this to the public not just because Brady and Belichick captured their sixth Super Bowl together but also because the Rams were one of the most prolific offenses in the league That season which made it all the more shocking that they had laid a complete egg during the biggest game of the year leave it to Bill Belichick to find a way to completely shut down one of the best offenses at the NFL had seen in recent years leaving all the NFL fans at home stewing in disappointment for having to watch such an excruciatingly unentertaining game although the point totals were slightly higher Super Bowl 40 in 2006 between these Steelers and Seahawks and Super Bowl 8 way back in 1974 between the Dolphins and Vikings where two Super Bowls that board fans into hating them as well this matchup featured a Seahawks team that was one of the best teams in the league All Season under Mike Holden Graham the team started the season 2 and 2 before rattling off 11th straight regular season wins and two playoff dubs to get to the big game the Steelers however were favored by a little over a field goal despite making it to the Super Bowl as an 11 and five succeed the public sentiment on the other hand favored Seattle it was the franchise's first ever Super Bowl appearance and let's face it no one really needed to see the Steelers win yet another Super Bowl unfortunately we did not get our wish as Pittsburgh won a snooze Fest of a game largely thanks to a couple of key controversial calls by head official Bill Levy and before anyone starts claiming sour grapes Levy himself has even admitted it it was a tough thing for me Libby said I kicked two calls in the fourth quarter and I impacted the game and as an official you never want to do that it left me with a lot of sleepless nights and I think about it constantly I'll go to my grave wishing that I'd been better yeah bill so do we and we wish that game itself was better too Super Bowl 8 on the other hand wasn't as ripe with controversy but it was still a real stinker of a game the only real Intrigue was that the Dolphins were looking to repeat as Champions making them just a second team to do so in NFL history to that point but much of the excitement was Zapped in comparison to the previous year's championship because that was their legendary 17-0 undefeated season and while the Dolphins didn't deliver they did show in a drag out fashion scoring two touchdowns in the first quarter and essentially squeezing the rest of the life out of the Vikings for the remaining 45 minutes of gameplay Miami just ran and ran and ran and the game was never in doubt the Finn's cruised to a 24-7 Victory despite only having thrown the ball seven times which is insane next up we have Super Bowl 37 between Jon Gruden's Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Bill Callahan's Oakland Raiders though there has to be a little bit of an asterisk on Callahan's Raiders because Gruden had coached the Raiders from 98 until 2001 before the team traded him to Tampa Bay in fact the Raiders were still considered Gruden's team to the point that people including players on the team itself speculated that Callahan might have thrown the game for his mentor we went back to the offense that grew new so the hospital so oh my gosh black 15 lightning they're coming right here the rumor stemmed from his decision to completely flip the game plan on its head the way you prepare all week long you go with it no matter what we just felt like it was very unusual for him to make that change going from a run-heavy attack to an aerial game plan just days before the big game we had changed the offense to to be more run dominant Friday morning Bill Callahan comes in and says what to you guys we're going to go back to the offense we had all year while it may never be proven for sure that Callahan intentionally sabotaged his own team on the world's biggest stage he did play his part in putting together a Super Bowl that everyone hated to watch Tampa smoked Oakland and largely kept their highly ranked offense at Bay as the Raiders had just nine points until the fourth quarter before attacking on another 12 once the game was completely out of hand frankly just not a fun game to watch lastly we have two back-to-back Super Bowls between the same two teams in 93 and 94 the Cowboys and bills squared off in two of the worst Super Bowls that we have ever seen these games sound familiar by the way it's because they were the finale of Buffalo's legendary four Super Bowl losing streak the outcome of the game wasn't the only reason we hated watching the super Bowl either the action on the Gridiron left a lot to be desired in its own right because these games were never even close Dallas blew Buffalo's doors off both years 52-17 then 30 to 13. not exactly what you want to see as a uninvested fan
