THE GREATEST SUPER BOWL EVER IS…

We rate the big games, from I to XLVIII.

CAN’T BE BEAT. EVEN IF THE GAME SUCKS, THERE’S ALWAYS A CHANCE OF MUST-SEE TV: A WILD HELMET CATCH, AN AMAZING AD, OR AN EPIC NIP SLIP IS JUST ON THE HORIZON. SO, ALL THINGS CONSIDERED, HOW DOES XXX STACK UP TO III? TAKE A LOOK!

GAME QUALITY

THE ON-FIELD ACTION. THINK MANNING TO TYREE FOR 32 YARDS VS. A 36-POINT LOSS TO DA BEARS.

STAR POWER

BECAUSE SOME GAMES HAVE JOE NAMATH. OTHERS: TRENT DILFER.

X FACTOR

BECAUSE THE CHILI PEPPERS BEAT *NSYNC ON ANY GIVEN SUNDAY. AND, WELL, CRAZY STUFF HAPPENS.
