Super Bowl Rematches Notes, 6 NFL “Semis” Such To Be Cited Tomorrow

This is a good week to cite both Super Bowl and Conference title tilts/NFL “semis” rematches as there are 3 Supe reduxes and 6 conference title tilts/NFL semis rematches.

One of football’s most famous games was the third Supe, the 18 point underdog New York Jets upsetting the then Baltimore Colts. In an almost meaningless tilt the (4-6) Indianapolis Colts visit the (3-7) Jets tomorrow.

Twice the Patriots and Rams met in Super Bowl competition with the New England Patriots, who have won the most Supes,(7) winning both their first as a big underdog in 2001 (a team called the Patriots winning the crown in a year whose September 11th events certainly made and make major news) and their 6th and most recent in a “toss up” perception game in 2018.

Another “not so hottie,” the (4-5) Rams visit (3-7) New England tomorrow.

Finally, among Supe rematches, the ’98 season game, (Denver won a second straight crown, pretty much easing vs the Falcons), is recalled with the Atlanta Falcons visiting the Denver Broncos. This is a pretty good one, going in as (6-4) Atlanta, the likely NFC South winner and (5-5) “in ‘offs contention,” Denver certainly is one between ‘offs contenders.

Tomorrow I will cite the six “semis” rematches on tomorrow’s NFL schedule.

Watch on YouTube and I note at 36 seconds of the short video, Curt Gowdy calls the lone Jets’ TD in the win, a 4 yard run by Matt Snell.
