25 most impressive NFL records of all time

&lt;p&gt;The Super Bowl is one of the biggest sports&amp;nbsp;events in the world. Millions of people tune in to watch the &lt;strong&gt;NFL's &lt;/strong&gt;two best&amp;nbsp;teams battling it out for the&amp;nbsp;Vince Lombardi trophy. Winning the Super Bowl is an unbelievable feeling, but losing it is excruciatingly painful. In this case, we will be looking back at some of the worst&amp;nbsp;Super Bowl defeats in &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://us.bolavip.com/nfl-t20281&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;NFL&lt;/a&gt; history.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;15. San Francisco 49ers, Super Bowl&amp;nbsp;XLVII (2013)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt;

 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;It was nicknamed the Harbaugh&amp;nbsp;Bowl&amp;nbsp;as is would see brothers John and Jim Harbaugh, coahces of the Ravens and&amp;nbsp;49ers, go head to head. The Ravens had a 28-6 lead in the&amp;nbsp;third quarter until a power outage&amp;nbsp;stopped the game&amp;nbsp;for over half an hour.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;After the power outage, the&amp;nbsp;49ers fought&amp;nbsp;back and&amp;nbsp;went into the fourth quarter only&amp;nbsp;down 34-29. Despite the&amp;nbsp;49ers having all the momentum, they&amp;nbsp;missed several golden oportunities&amp;nbsp;to take the lead and went on to lose the&amp;nbsp;game&amp;nbsp;34-31, which would be San Francisco's first ever Super Bowl defeat.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;14. Carolina Panthers, Super Bowl XXXVIII (2004)&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-height=&quot;333&quot; data-size=&quot;w:597,h:333&quot; data-width=&quot;597&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/03/30/super_bowl_xxxviii_2_crop1585547663562.jpg_731210019.jpg&quot; title=&quot;&quot; vspace=&quot;5&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Carolina Panthers scored&amp;nbsp;29 points on Bill Belichick's&amp;nbsp;New England&amp;nbsp;Patriots, which is the most points the &lt;a href=&quot;https://us.bolavip.com/new-england-patriots-t92316&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Patriots&lt;/a&gt; had allowed all season.&amp;nbsp;For most teams, that would probably be enough to win&amp;nbsp;the Super Bowl, but not against this&amp;nbsp;Patriots team.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;With a minute and eight seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, the score was tied at 29&amp;nbsp;and it&amp;nbsp;looked like the game would go into&amp;nbsp;overtime. However, Tom Brady, who was only in his fourth NFL season, had different ideas. He&amp;nbsp;lead the offense down the field&amp;nbsp;to put kicker Adam&amp;nbsp;Vinatieri in position to hit a 41 yard field goal&amp;nbsp;to win the Patriots their second Super Bowl&amp;nbsp;in three season. After the game, Tom Brady would be named Super Bowl MVP.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;13. Cinninati Bengals, Super Bowl&amp;nbsp;XXIII (1989)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-height=&quot;333&quot; data-size=&quot;w:599,h:333&quot; data-width=&quot;599&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/03/30/super_bowl_xxiii_crop1585547819905.jpg_1432274597.jpg&quot; title=&quot;&quot; vspace=&quot;5&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Bengals lead&amp;nbsp;in the fourth quarter 16-13 with about&amp;nbsp;three minutes left in the game. With San Francisco pinned deep in their own half, their chances of winning looked unlikely, but they did have the NFL's best quarterback in Joe Montana.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Montana would lead the team&amp;nbsp;92 yards down the field in 11 plays, which concluded with a touchdown throw to wide receiver&amp;nbsp;John Taylor with&amp;nbsp;34 seconds remaining. San Francisco would win 20-16 to claim their third&amp;nbsp;Super Bowl&amp;nbsp;title.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;12. Baltimore Colts, Super Bowl III (1969)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-height=&quot;333&quot; data-size=&quot;w:599,h:333&quot; data-width=&quot;599&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/03/30/super_bowl_iii_crop1585548267477.jpg_1432274597.jpg&quot; title=&quot;&quot; vspace=&quot;5&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The game would go down as one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history. The Colts were NFL champions and&amp;nbsp;seen as heavy&amp;nbsp;favorites against the New York Jets, who were AFL Champions. However, the Jets, lead by quarterback Joe Namath, had other ideas.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Just three days earlier, Namath quaranted that the Jets would win the Super Bowl&amp;nbsp;and he would not disappoint. The Jets would defeat the&amp;nbsp;Colts 16-7 to become the first AFL team to win the Super Bowl.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;11. Arizona Cardinals, Super Bowl XLIII&amp;nbsp;(2009)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-height=&quot;333&quot; data-size=&quot;w:597,h:333&quot; data-width=&quot;597&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/03/30/super_bowl_xliii_crop1585548383872.jpg_731210019.jpg&quot; title=&quot;&quot; vspace=&quot;5&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;This game is mostly remembered for two iconic plays.&amp;nbsp;The first one occurred before halftime when&amp;nbsp;James Harrison intercepted Kurt Warners pass in the Steelers endzone and returned it 100 yards for a touchdown. The second one happened in the final minutes of the fourth quarter.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;After the Cardinals had taken the lead with 2:37 remaining, the Steelers drove down the field and would score the game winning touch with 35 seconds left on the clock. Ben Roethlisberger's pass&amp;nbsp;beat three&amp;nbsp;Cardinals' defenders and was caught by widereceiver Santonio&amp;nbsp;Holmes&amp;nbsp;as the Steelers would win&amp;nbsp;27-23.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;10. Tennesse Titans, XXXIV (2000)&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The conclusion of the game was something out of a Hollywood movie. The Titans came back from a 16 point deficit&amp;nbsp;at one point in the&amp;nbsp;game, but were&amp;nbsp;down in the final minutes 23-16.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;With six&amp;nbsp;seconds left, Kevin Dyson caught&amp;nbsp;the ball&amp;nbsp;and looked sure to get in the endzone&amp;nbsp;until he was tackled by Rams' defender Mike&amp;nbsp;Jones. Dyson&amp;nbsp;extended his arm all he could, but he was&amp;nbsp;stopped&amp;nbsp;at the one yard&amp;nbsp;line and the&amp;nbsp;Rams would win their first Super Bowl in franchise history.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;9. Buffalo Bills, Super Bowl XXVII (1993)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The would be the&amp;nbsp;Bills third of four straight Super Bowl losses.&amp;nbsp;It was a tight&amp;nbsp;game&amp;nbsp;and the Bills looked to have a good&amp;nbsp;chance&amp;nbsp;of winning the Super Bowl. However, that all changed in the fourth quarters.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Cowboys, led by quarter back Troy Aikman, scored&amp;nbsp;21 answered points&amp;nbsp;in the&amp;nbsp;fourth quarter as they would go on to win&amp;nbsp;52-17.&amp;nbsp;Aikman completed 22 of 30 passes, throwing for&amp;nbsp;273 yards and four touchdown passes as he was&amp;nbsp;named Super Bowl MVP.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;8. Denver Broncos, Super Bowl XXII (1988)&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;After losing the Super Bowl the previous season, the Broncos looked to finally get over the hurdle as they searched for the franchise's first ever Super Bowl title. The game looked promising as the Broncos took an early 10-0 lead in the first quarter.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;However, that would all change when the Redskins scored 35 points in the second quarter. The Broncos would not score another point&amp;nbsp;and lost the game 42-10.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;7. New England Patriots, Super Bowl XLII (2008)&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Patriots may have won six Super Bowl championships since the new millenium, but many experts believe that this&amp;nbsp;was their greatest team during the Bill Belichick and&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://us.bolavip.com/tom-brady-t75921&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tom Brady &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;era.&amp;nbsp;They were undefeated entering the Super Bowl having finished the regular season 16-0 and were seen as heavy favorites against the New York Giants.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;With the Patriots ahead and less than three minutes left in the fourth quarter, Eli Manning escaped the Patriots pass rush to complete a long pass to David Tyree, who caught the ball pressing it on his head.&amp;nbsp;A few plays later, Manning would throw the game winning touchdown to Plaxico Burress with less than a minutes to go&amp;nbsp;to win the game 17-14. It would be Bill Belichick and Tom Brady's first Super Bowl&amp;nbsp;defeat as the&amp;nbsp;Patriots would finish the season 18-1.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. Buffalo Bills, Super Bowl XXV (1991)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-height=&quot;334&quot; data-size=&quot;w:599,h:334&quot; data-width=&quot;599&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/03/30/super_bowl_xxv_crop1585548678298.jpg_1433198118.jpg&quot; title=&quot;&quot; vspace=&quot;5&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;figcaption&gt;
    Scott Norwood field goal atempt. 
  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;It would be the closest game in Super Bowl history. In addition, it was the Bill's toughest defeat as they would go on to lose four straight Super Bowls.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;With the Giants leading 20-19 in the final seconds&amp;nbsp;of the fourth quarter, kicker Scott Norwood had the chance to win it with a 47 yard field. However, his kick went just wide and the Giants would go on to win the Super Bowl.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Denver Broncos, Super Bowl XLVIII (2014)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Even though the game was played between the league's best offense and defense, it would go on to be one of the biggest blowouts in Super Bowl history. Things looked bad from the beginning when miscommunication between quarterback Peyton Manning and his center lead to a Seahawks safety.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;From that moment on, the Seahawks did not let up and almost held the Broncos scoreless. The Broncas were able to at least score a field goal, but the Seahawks would win their first Super Bowl in franchise history by a score of 43-8.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Seatle Seahawks, Super Bowl XLVIX (2015)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt;

  &lt;figcaption&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Seahwaks&amp;nbsp;returned&amp;nbsp;to the Super Bowl a year later, only this time to lose in dramatic fashion. The game was tight throughout and it came down to the final minutes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Patriots were ahead 28-24 in the fourth quarter, but the Seahawks had the ball on the Patriots one yard line and looked like they were going to score. However, Patriots defender Malcom&amp;nbsp;Butler would&amp;nbsp;then&amp;nbsp;intercept&amp;nbsp;Russel Wilson's pass to win the game. This&amp;nbsp;win would be the Patriots first Super Bowl championship since 2005.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. New England Patriots, Super Bowl XX (1986)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Patriots would be part of one of the biggest defeats in Super Bowl history. They started the game winning with a field goal on the first drive, but it was all Chicago Bears from that moment.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Bears hard nose defense was impossible for the Patriots to break through as&amp;nbsp;the Bears'&amp;nbsp;offense scored 31 points in the second and third quarter. The Bears would go on to win the game 46-10.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Atlanta Falcons, Super Bowl LI (2017)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt;

&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;An unbelievable comeback for the Patriots and an excrutiatingly defeat for the Falcons. The Falcons lead 28-9 entering the fourth quarter, but that would all change.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Patriots, lead by quarterback Tom Brady, would score 19 unanswered points to tie the game and sent it into the Super Bowl's first ever overtime. In the overtime, the Patriots would complete the comeback when James White ran the ball into the endzone to win 34-28.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Denver Broncos, Super Bowl XXIV (1990)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt;

&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The biggest Super Bowl blowout in NFL history. John Elway was playing in his third Super Bowl with the Broncos and looking to win the franchise's first championship. However, they were big underdogs against the San Francisco 49ers, lead by quarterback Joe Montona.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;San Francisco would not disappoint and completely ran over the Broncos. Montana had a remarkable game as they would go on to win 55-10.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With the &lt;strong&gt;Champions League &lt;/strong&gt;returning, which team is the favorite to win the competition? Some believe it to be PSG&rsquo;s who in theory have an easier path to the final and were in good form before the current pandemic.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;div class=&quot;ck-youtube&quot; id=&quot;youtube-26&quot; style=&quot;display: inline-block;&quot;&gt;

  &lt;span class=&quot;item third&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Others could argue &lt;strong&gt;Bayern Munich &lt;/strong&gt;is the favorite as their form after the restart was exceptional and cruised to winning yet another Bundesliga title. However, the team to keep an eye on in this tournament, which is being overlooked and has serious possibilities of winning is&lt;strong&gt; Atl&eacute;tico de Madrid &lt;/strong&gt;as they search for their first Champions League title in club history.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The team has gone under the radar, but Atl&eacute;tico did not lose after the La Liga restart, winning seven games and only drawing on four occasions.&lt;strong&gt; Their defense has only conceded six goals and have kept six clean sheets. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;/blockquote&gt; 
  &lt;script async defer src=&quot;//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  &lt;span class=&quot;item first&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  &lt;span class=&quot;item second&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  &lt;span class=&quot;item third&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Along with their great defense, they have one of the best goalkeepers in the work in&lt;strong&gt; Jan Oblak&lt;/strong&gt;, while &lt;strong&gt;Alvaro Morata&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Joao F&eacute;lix&lt;/strong&gt; have stepped up with important goals, and&lt;strong&gt; Marcos Llorente&lt;/strong&gt; has arguably been the team&rsquo;s best player since the league restarted.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;They won't back down&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt;
  &lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; data-height=&quot;333&quot; data-size=&quot;w:600,h:333&quot; data-width=&quot;600&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;/export/sites/bolavip/img/2020/08/07/joao_felix.jpg_1030179834.jpg&quot; title=&quot;&quot; vspace=&quot;5&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;figcaption&gt;
   Portuguese star Joao F&eacute;lix will lead the way for Atl&eacute;tico. (Getty)
  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;It is also worth mentioning &lt;strong&gt;Atl&eacute;tico eliminated Liverpool&lt;/strong&gt; in the previous round, who were the defending champions and seen as favorites to retain the title. Additionally, all games will be one game, which benefits Atl&eacute;tico. In the quarterfinals, they will take on &lt;strong&gt;Leipzig,&lt;/strong&gt; who are a well-organized team&amp;nbsp;but will be without star striker &lt;strong&gt;Timo Werner&lt;/strong&gt; after moving to &lt;strong&gt;Chelsea.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;If Atl&eacute;tico advance, they will face the winner of the Atalanta or PSG, teams who play to their strengths. Atalanta are great going forward, but are not as solid in defense, which will favor Atl&eacute;tico&rsquo;s &lt;strong&gt;tight defensive and quick counter-attacking style of play&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;div class=&quot;ckeditor-poll&quot; data-path=&quot;/usa/encuestas/Encuesta1596807345153&quot; id=&quot;ckePolls_1596807360791&quot; style=&quot;text-align:left&quot;&gt;
 &lt;span data-src=&quot;/usa/encuestas/Encuesta1596807345153&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;With PSG on the other hand, it would be a much tougher encounter with their star-studded side. However, Atl&eacute;tico have eliminated tougher opponents in previous editions and &lt;strong&gt;there&amp;nbsp;is no reason to believe they could not eliminate PSG.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;If they were to get to the final, it is anybody's guess who they would play, but anything can happen in the Champions League final. There is no reason to believe Atl&eacute;tico de Madrid &lt;strong&gt;cannot be the next Champions League winners&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
