The 1994 Cowboys, 2016 Falcons, 2007 Patriots, 2001 Rams, etc. should be included. 

 

The Missing Rings[edit]

"The Missing Rings" redirects here. For the video game, see The Missing Ring.

A spinoff series, America's Game: The Missing Rings, debuted on September 18, 2008 and aired for five consecutive Thursdays after that, starting at 10 p.m. ET. In this series, the producers picked five very good teams that came close to winning it all but finished short of Super Bowl victories, and devoted an hour to each of them. The basic format of the show was the same. However, the theme song cut off abruptly before the show started, symbolizing the unfinished goals of the teams being profiled.[7]

2006 Chargers didn’t make it but went 14-2 and absolutely dominated till they ran into the Patriots

2014 Seahawks were 1yd away

2007 Patriots were a catch away from Perfection

2016 Falcons - largest blown lead in SB history?

Really has to be a multiyear thing… I remember the Freezer Bowl Chargers when that aired. The 06’-‘09 Chargers is another good one. 
 

San Fran could be done from ‘12-‘13 or ‘19-‘23 really… same with Philli ‘01-‘08.

Vikings in ‘98-‘00 is good as well.

This year's Ravens team was miles better.

Team was trash. Couldn’t muster up any offense wasted a great defense. Offense was so bad it wasn’t even funny. There’s no way I could put the ravens over this years bills or Niners, who gave the chiefs a a run. They’ll be forgotten much like how the 19 ravens were. How do you lose at home breh with an elite defense? Literally the ravens Offense threw the game with those TOS.

How are the 1983 Redskins not included anywhere in this? They lost two regular season games by a combined TWO points. 

 

"The Redskins' 541 points scored and +209 point differential was the best in the league, with the 541 points setting an NFL record at the time.[1] The 1983 Redskins also had a turnover margin of +43, an NFL record.[2] Washington was the first team since the merger to record more than 60 takeaways (61)."
