Great Plays in Super Bowl History

Before the Chiefs won today's Super Bowl, fans shared some of their favorite Super Bowl play. Many made the cover of Sports Illustrated, and are posted on my blog's Super Bowl tab above.

Good to see some old-timers suggest Max McGee's catches in Super Bowl 1. Also Joe Namath's performance in SB3.

 Fifty years ago the Chiefs beat the Vikings in SB4.

 One of my faves: John Mackey's tipped TD catch in SB5.

 ...culminated by Jim O'Brien's game-winning kick.

Bob Lilly chasing down Bob Griese for a big loss in SB6.

 Despite Garo's flubbed pass, Miami beat Washington to complete their undefeated season. 

BTW not sure these are in the right order, especially going forward.

Against Denver FB Robert Newsome complete a pass for a touchdown. 

 WR Butch Johnson makes a diving TD catch in the same game.

 WR Lynn Swann makes a great catch against the Cowboys.

In the same game MLB Jack Lambert shows DB Cliff Harris how he feels about Harris messing with K Roy Gerela.

 Another great catch by Swann.

SB MVP Fred Belitnikoff sets up three TD's

in the Raiders win over the Vikings.

 Another great catch by Swann.

 John Stallworth also made several great catches.

 SB MVP Marcus Allen cuts through the Redskins.

 William Perry and the 85 Bears blow away the Patriots.

John Taylor catches the game-winner against the Bengals.

 Michael Irvin wrestles away a pass for a TD.

 Another of my faves:

Don Beebe prevents big Leon Lett from scoring a TD.

 Scott Norwood misses the game-winning field goal

against the Giants.

The Titans come up just short against the Rams.

 John Elway finally gets his Super Bowl win,

helicoptering in against the Packers.

 Steelers beat the Cardinals.

 Patriots intercept Seattle QB Russell Wilson to preserve the victory.

 WR David Tyree catches a pass of his head to key the Giants upset over the Patriots.

QB Nick Foles catches a TD pass to help beat the Patriots.
