January 31, 1993 - Rose Bowl, Pasadena, California - Super Bowl XXVII had some special historic moments, the Buffalo Bills became the second team since the early 1970’s Dolphins to play in three straight Super Bowls. It is interesting that this would be the third different NFC East team that the Bills would meet in this run of Super Bowls for them. The Cowboys were just 4 seasons removed from having a League worst 1-15 record. Super Bowl XXVII was shaped up to be interesting indeed, but one team came in a bit more prepared than the other. According to the American Football Fandom site Dallas forced a Super Bowl record nine turnovers —four interceptions and five lost fumbles and scored 35 points off of those Bills miscues. The Dallas Cowboys won in a landslide 52-17 over the Bills. Troy Aikman, the quarterback of the Cowboys, won the Most Valuable Player honors as he tossed four touchdown passes and racked up 273 yards through the air. Another interesting note was that a 30 second commercial spot cost $850,000.
January 31, 1999 - Pro Player Stadium, Miami, Florida - Super Bowl XXXIII featured the Dirty Birds of the Atlanta Falcons facing the AFC Champs the Denver Broncos. Denver was the defending champs as a year earlier they had defeated Green Bay for the franchise’s first championship per the PFR. Quarterback John Elway was getting a little long in the tooth but his mastery of the offense was never in doubt. The Falcons were appearing in their first Super Bowl led by Quarterback Chris Chandler and running back Jamal Anderson. The Broncos were a little too much for upstart Atlanta though as they grounded the Falcons 34-19. Elway who threw for 336 yards and a touchdown took home the MVP trophy and traveled to Disney. A 30 second commercial during this Super Bowl would set you back a cool $1.6 million.
