Tom Brady is busy doing anything but taking time to reflect on his incredible run as an NFL quarterback. After all, Brady always says that his favorite Super Bowl ring is “the next one,” as he and the Buccaneers will look to defend their title in 2021.If you’re suffering from Brady fatigue, don’t worry — the majority of this article is not about him. While he is largely responsible for two all-time franchise wins, there are 30 other victories mentioned in our rundown of the greatest win for all 32 teams. In fact, Brady is actually on the losing end of several games included in this all-time list.Some of the choices will be somewhat expected, especially for franchises that have won zero championships. Conversely, there will be some wins that will surprise readers, especially when it comes to naming the greatest win for teams that have won multiple championships. Some of the wins have occurred over the last several years, while others took place when single-bar helmets were still common.Without further ado, let’s take a look at each franchise’s greatest win.

Greatest win: 1947 Championship: Cardinals 28, 21Runner-up: 2008 NFC Championship Game: Cardinals 32, Eagles 25Ironically, the Cardinals’ two greatest victories came against the same opponent. In the ’47 title game, the Cardinals’ Elmer Angsman, who was born the year the Cardinals won their first title (in 1925), ran for 159 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Cardinals to their second title. While their offense ran the ball at will, the Cardinals’ defense held Eagles Hall of Fame halfback Steve Van Buren to just 26 yards Seth Curry Jersey rushing on 18 carries. Van Buren would then lead Philadelphia to back-to-back championships, while the Cardinals continue to wait for their next NFL title.Greatest win: : Falcons 30, 27 (OT)Runner-up: 2016 NFC Championship Game: Falcons 44, 21In one of the most surprising upsets in NFL postseason history, Atlanta’s “Dirty Birds” overcame a 13-point deficit to stun the Vikings, who went 15-1 during the regular season. Trailing 27-20, the Falcons caught a break when Vikings kicker Gary Anderson, who did not mi s a field goal during the regular season, mi sed a 38-yard attempt with 2:07 left. Atlanta capitalized on Anderson’s mi s, as Chris Chandler hit Terance Mathis for the game-tying touchdown with 57 seconds left in regulation. The teams exchanged punts in overtime before two Chandler completions to tight end O.J. Santiago and two runs by Jamal Anderson set up Morton Andersen’s game-winning, 38-yard kick.

But it was the Bills’ improbable wild-card comeback win over the Oilers that stands as the Bills’ greatest win. Trailing 35-3 at the start of the second half, four touchdown pa ses from backup quarterback Frank Reich gave the Bills a fourth-quarter lead. After the Oilers forced overtime, an interception by Nate Odomes set up Steve Christie’s game-winning, 32-yard field goal. The win helped the Bills advance to their third of four consecutive Super Bowls. Greatest win: XXXV: Ravens 34, 7Runner-up: Super Bowl XLVII: Ravens 34, 31Super Bowl XXXV was vindication for the 2000 Ravens’ defense, who solidified their place as an all-time great unit after holding the Giants to just 152 total yards. New York’s offense, two weeks after scoring 41 points against the Vikings, did not score a touchdown against the Ravens and game MVP Ray Lewis. Conversely, the Ravens scored touchdowns on offense, defense and special teams. Duane Starks’ 49-yard pick gave Baltimore a 17-0 lead. Jermaine Lewis’ kickoff return for a touchdown moments later sealed the win.Greatest win: 2015 NFC Championship Game: Panthers 49, Cardinals 15Runner-up: 2003 NFC Championship Game: Panthers 14, Eagles 3After a 15-1 regular season, the Panthers dethroned the defending NFC champion in the divisional round, 31-24.

Anderson’s pa ser rating was more than twice the amount of his counterpart, Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Fouts. Anderson received stellar protection all day from Hall of Fame left tackle Anthony Munoz, who helped the Bengals reach their first Super Bowl. “Kenny’s advantage was that he threw tight spirals,” , who noted that throwing that day was like “throwing a shoebox in the wind. … I didn’t Danny Green Jersey always throw spirals. In my mind, that was the biggest part of us losing the game.”Greatest Allen Iverson Jersey win: 1964 NFL Championship: Browns 27, 0Runner-up: 1950 NFL Championship: Browns 30, 28The Browns ended their eight-year championship drought with a dominant win over Johnny Unitas and the Colts.

The championship was the first for then-rookie receiver Paul Warfield, who later won two Super Bowls as a member of the .Greatest win: Super Bowl XX: Bears 46, 10Runner-up: 1940 NFL Championship: Bears 73, Washington 0This was one easy; no game in Bears history (not even the biggest blowout in championship game history) compares to Chicago’s first — and last — Super Bowl win. One of the most celebrated teams in NFL history, the ’85 Bears capped off their 18-1 season (including playoffs) with the largest margin of victory in Super Bowl history at that time. The Bears’ “46” defense, led by game MVP Richard Dent, suffocated the Patriots’ offense, forcing six turnovers and holding New England to 123 total yards. The Bears’ defense also scored twice
