I've been watching Super Bowls for 30+ years, and I'd say the 2011 Super Bowl was the best ever! Both teams made mistakes of course, but it was a very hard fought battle between two evenly matched teams. Judging by the injuries these teams suffered, I'd say both sets of players gave it every ounce of effort they had. This Super Bowl sets a high standard that will be very difficult to match!🙂
Sorry, I think the best Super Bowl ever was Super Bowl VII when the Miami capped the only perfect season in history with a hard fought 14-7 win over Washington.
There were several others I would place ahead of yesterday's game, but the game was pretty good.
Super Bowl III when Joe Namath predicted the Jets victory over the heavily favored Colts is another that stands out for me.
Super Bowls X and XIII where Pittsburgh beat Dallas both times in close games were also better in my opinion.
Super Bowl XXV was also very good when the Giants beat the Bills by a single point.
Super Bowl XXXVI where New England beat St Louis by a field goal was also better I think.
And, who will ever forget Super Bowl XXXVIII from Houston when New England won a thriller against Carolina??
Those are a few that come to mind for me that were better games.
