<Personally I think that the playoffs (excluding this years) are more exciting 
<than most Super Bowls.  Two immediately come to mind.. Miami vs San Diego in 
<1982 (?).  If I recall San Diego took a 17-0 lead in the first 5 to 10 minutes 
<of the game.  The first half ended with a Miami lateral from one of their WR 
<for a TD. I believe that game had two OT were there were 3 missed winning field
<goals. And of course the 1981 49ers/Dallas divisional playoff with THE CATCH !! 
TThose two games were the same year.  I remember, because I recall San Diego
having to go from Miami to Cincinnati in that game with the -13 degree
AMBIENT temperature (-59 wind chill!).  I THINK the Miami/San Diego game
was 24-0 before Strock replaced Woodley and went crazy.  The final was something
like 41-38.  No doubt about it - one of the greatest games ever!
Another great game also had Miami (vs KC) on a Xmas day playoff game back in
the early 70's.  Double overtime!
