<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">The last "Super Bowl" in which there has been a shutout was in 1964 when the Browns shut out the Colts 27-0.</span></p>

<p>
What? Some people want to say that wasn't a "Super Bowl"?  Well, it is if I want to say it is. The term "Super Bowl" is just a made up name for the NFL Championship game after all.  I only extrapolated the fallacy a little.</p>
<p>
Average winning score of title games since 1966? </p>
<p>
Just a guess: 27-13.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/180342</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/180342</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[The Gipper]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 23 Jun 2010 13:29:52 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Championship data on Wed, 23 Jun 2010 01:33:20 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>nice thread.............what team last won the Super Bowl with a shutout?</p>

<p>
<span style="color:#8B0000">Think about how close some of these teams have come to not being on this list:</span></p>
<p>
The Arizona Cardinals lose in the last few seconds of the Super Bowl</p>
<p>
The Indians take a lead into the bottom of the 9th of the 7th game of the WS</p>
<p>
The SF Giants take a recent WS to the 7th game</p>
<p>
The Tennessee Titans/Oilers are stopped "one yard short" in the last play of a SB</p>
<p>
The Buffalo Bills lose 4 SBs in a row, especially the one that Scott Norwood misses the FG on the last play</p>
<p>
The Bengals are defeated on a last minute drive by Joe Montana in a SB</p>
