Super Bowl XXIX can be considered one of the most unusual editions in the game's history.
The AFC representative was the then-San Diego Chargers. While undeniably defensively talented with the likes of Leslie O'Neal and the late Junior Seau, they were not as offensively exciting as the Buffalo Bills or Miami Dolphins. And as was usual in the 1990s, they were routed by the dynastic San Francisco 49ers.

What was even more unusual was the halftime show - a de facto theme park commercial, not exactly the best idea, especially just a short time after Michael Jackson began the "headliner trend".

If he can change one moment in NFL history, it will be from the NFC Championship Game in January 2019. In that game, a highly controversial no-call cost the Saints what would have been Drew Brees' second Super Bowl visit, where he would have faced Tom Brady and the Patriots.
