[Hurkman]

Not that long ago (About two weeks, to be exact,) I came in here and saw that The Professor had started up this thread that played alternate Super Bowls if the losers of their respective championship games had won. Well, as I was reading the results that he had posted, an idea popped into my head.

Why not replay every NFL playoff game from the Super Bowl era?

Of course, such a task was almost totally insane, or so I thought. Leave it to me getting sick with the flu for almost a week and missing work, as well as not having the energy to update my OOTP dynasty, and the next thing I know, it's all simmed, saved and written down. So now, since I would be totally freaky if I just did this for myself, I'll be posting what happened here. Some of the results are very, if not totally, the same, while others are so off the wall, you couldn't picture them in your wildest dreams.

So, let's get started down this crazy little road, shall we?

Once again, thanks to The Professor for the inspiration in his thread (I'm not trying to steal your idea, I swear), WhatIfSports.com, which gave me the means and ability to sim and save every game, pro-football-reference.com, for giving me all the extra info and box scores of every game, sportsecyclopedia.com, for giving me most of the player and coach pictures and Chris Creamer's sportslogos.net for the helmet and Super Bowl logos.
