78 just because the Cowboys were in it and I was more attached to the outcome.
Most exciting recently and possibly the most exciting ever, (no partican evolved) might have been the 34. Pats vs Rams. Rams had won it all two years before, (also worthy of the most exciting against Tennessee). There offense was unstopable, there defense with Winstrom, Fletcher and Little could really rush the passer. Warner and Faulk had each enjoyed two of the greatest seasons ever respectively. Meanwhile New England the underdog with a rookie QB playing for there starter and a young defense seemed almost impossible.
Close game throughout dominated by the defenses, IMO, up until the 4th quarter. The Pats leading 17 to 3, Warner drives down to the goal line and on 4th and goal from the 3, Warner fumbles and it's picked up and ran back. Holding call erases the fumble and return and the Rams score 2 plays later. 17-10. Pats go three and out and give the ball back on the Rams 45 with less then two minutes to go. Warner takes three pass plays to score and ties the game with a minute and a half left on the clock. A young Tom Brady has 1:30 second and no time outs to drive the length of the field. He's almost flawless working the short game and you just know that the rookie is going to make a mistake. With 7 seconds left, Brady spikes the ball at the Rams 30 yard line giving Adam Vinatieri a 48 yard FG attempt for the game. Vinatieri has all the pressure in the world on a long attempt for the Super Bowl victory. You make it, your a God. You miss it, well, ask Jackie Smith or Garo Yaprimian. Vinatieri drills it and this becomes the first Super Bowl ever played to be won on the very last play of the game.
