Yes, this is an obnoxious premise but I see some potential for some variation in answers. The purpose of the thread is to see where everyone ranks the 6 titles based on meaning to you as a fan. I presume SB36 goes #1 on most lists but the rest could have some differences based on the personalities on the team, circumstances of winning, what you enjoyed most about the team, etc.
I'll get it started with my list and rationales:
1. SB36 (Rams): Such an underdog and the title that got it all started. Like 2004 Sox, basically impossible to top for me.
2. SB49 (Seahawks): With the subtext of Deflategate surrounding this game and going against a really good defending champ Seahawks team, I wanted this one really, REALLY badly. I also wanted #4 for Brady to get him tied with Montana and firmly into the GOAT discussion. And then it turned into a great game with the miracle finish after being 1 yard away from devastation.
3. SB51 (Falcons): The 28-3 comeback was historic and it allowed Brady to pass Montana and take control of the GOAT debate. It also came after Brady had served his suspension so there was still some animosity for me.
4. SB53 (Rams): This year's title was just so unexpected and it was a great group of guys to root for. Certainly wasn't the prettiest game but it was really fun to see the D play so well. It also got Jules into the HOF discussion, which I enjoy since he's one of my favorite players ever.
5. SB38 (Panthers): This one proved that they weren't some kind of fluke, which was meaningful since they didn't even make the playoffs in 2002. It also was a very entertaining game and one that I was fortunate enough to attend. Rodney's first title with the team.
6. SB39 (Eagles): The game that cemented the first version of the dynasty. It was a competitive game but, candidly, is one that I don't really think about much. More of a confirmation of what we all already knew.
