Where does this rank in terms of Super Bowls nobody wanted?

I’m trying to avoid putting it at #1 because of recency bias.

The first one I remember watching was 26.

Last year was among the worst for me, but this year tops it. Others that come to mind:

Patriots-Eagles (both of them)
Patriots-Giants XLVI
Packers-Steelers XLV

The question is confusing. Is it just you??? Or is everybody else nobody.

This ranks as second to me only behind Patriots vs Rams in SB ( Rams getting in bc of the no call PI BS).

Washington vs Buffalo was the ideal matchup. Detroit vs Buffalo would have been great too.

Not much interest in this game. Going to be hard for fans outside of those markets to watch it as this on many platforms was the SB matchup that was voted the least to be wanted.

I guess just for me. But I think this one isn’t really vibing with the general public as a whole.

Well it seems that it will end up being the to hottest teams at the end like it should be. I like the matchup. I have a feeling it could end up being a great game. I will enjoy it. I just like football.

Rams/Pats was pretty wack especially after no call.

First chiefs/niners

I remember being bummed for the Cowboys-Bills rematch in Super Bowl XXVIII.

Buffalo was actually winning at halftime, but everybody still knew Dallas would beat the piss out of them again.

As a Raiders fan I have to admit.....

Few were excited for or wanted to watch Tampa Bay vs. Oakland

Next, Chargers-Niners

And then the whole Bills debacle, going to the Super Bowl every frickin' year only to lay an egg. Those were dark days for football fans. Super Bowls sucked.

I’m a Patrick Mahomes fan and I like Andy Reid too. Not a Chiefs fan. I don’t want to see this Super Bowl. I just won’t watch it. No big deal.

There have been literally (and this term is rarely used correctly here) zero Super Bowls that nobody wanted.

shite year for all of us.

Dodgers-yankees
Ohio state - notre dame
Now chiefs - eagles

Ah well, at least we have the nba wide open. Cleveland has a chance to go far.

You should just add the NBA as a whole to your list.
You want to feel better about sports…watch hockey

TBH, I think people who are saying they're not watching it are full of shite. They'll tune in just to see if KC will lose.

It's been so long ago now, I'm curious what exactly you're referring to here. I assume the NFCCG vs Philly

What I remember about this game was it may have been the only time Mike Martz put the outcome of a game on the shoulders of Marshall Faulk. He absolutely dominated the 2nd half which only made the loss to New England worse when he didn't get the ball nearly enough.

You’re thinking of Brady’s first win. He’s talking about LA Rams getting handed an appearance when they tackled the Saints WR before the ball got there on the worst no call in sports history.

I actually enjoy watching the nba

I like hockey but the time between periods is unbearable. Its like having 2 college football halftimes.
