Ranking every Super Bowl played in Miami

Miami has a decorated resume when it comes to hosting Super Bowls. The city is about to retake first place for most Super Bowls hosted (11) and has been the setting of several remarkable moments in pro football history.

Joe Namath's upset guarantee. Lynn Swann's MVP performance. Joe Montana's game-winning comeback drive. Tracy Porter's iconic pick-6. They all took place in Miami.

As Super Bowl LIV approaches, theScore ranks all of the past championship games hosted by the Floridian city:

10. Super Bowl II, 1968 (Packers def. Raiders, 33-14)

The NFL continued its dominance over the AFL as the Packers clinched their second straight Super Bowl and third consecutive title. Led by Hall of Fame quarterback Bart Starr, Green Bay never trailed against the Raiders in what ended up being Vince Lombardi's last game as head coach.

9. Super Bowl XXXIII, 1999 (Broncos def. Falcons, 34-19)

After three Super Bowl losses, quarterback John Elway finally led the Broncos to glory - for the second time in as many years. Following Denver's first title campaign in 1997-98, the 39-year-old Elway was named MVP of Super Bowl XXXIII after spoiling the Falcons' Cinderella season in their first-ever Super Bowl appearance.

8. Super Bowl XXIX, 1995 (49ers def. Chargers, 49-26)

The Chargers were 18.5-point underdogs against the 49ers, who ended up cementing their dynasty with a fifth trophy. The contest featured a record-breaking six touchdown passes from Steve Young, a feat that earned him Super Bowl MVP honors and helped the signal-caller solidify his emergence from the shadow of Joe Montana in the Bay Area.

7. Super Bowl V, 1971 (Colts def. Cowboys, 16-13)

The first Super Bowl played after the official AFL-NFL merger didn't quite live up to expectations, as the Colts and Cowboys combined for a Super Bowl-record 11 turnovers and 14 penalties. Led by backup quarterback Earl Morrall, the Colts scored 10 unanswered fourth-quarter points, ultimately kicking a 32-yard, game-winning field goal with five seconds remaining to clinch their first title. Cowboys linebacker Chuck Howley became the first losing player and first non-quarterback to be named Super Bowl MVP.

6. Super Bowl XLI, 2007 (Colts def. Bears, 29-17)

Super Bowl XLI featured several notable highlights: Peyton Manning's first appearance in the championship game, a 92-yard touchdown return by Devin Hester on the initial kickoff, and perhaps the most brilliant halftime performance ever courtesy of Prince. The Colts, surprisingly led by their defense, prevailed over the Bears, intercepting Rex Grossman twice in the fourth quarter. Under heavy rain, Prince performed for the biggest audience of his life - 140 million television viewers - and delivered like Manning, who earned MVP honors after the contest.

5. Super Bowl XIII, 1979 (Steelers def. Cowboys, 35-31)

Both teams were trying to become the first franchise ever to raise a third Lombardi Trophy when the Steelers and Cowboys faced each other at the Orange Bowl. Pittsburgh ultimately clinched the title behind Terry Bradshaw's four touchdown passes, the last of which gave the Steelers a 35-17 lead midway through the fourth quarter.

4. Super Bowl X, 1976 (Steelers def. Cowboys, 21-17)

Three years before they clashed in Super Bowl XIII, the Steelers and Cowboys - then the NFL's two greatest powerhouses - played what many recall as "the Lynn Swann game." The wide receiver hauled in four catches for 161 yards and a touchdown, helping Pittsburgh overcome a 10-7 fourth-quarter deficit to clinch its second consecutive title behind the infamous Steel Curtain. Swann became the first wide receiver to be named Super Bowl MVP.

3. Super Bowl III, 1969 (Jets def. Colts, 16-7)

Though his Jets entered the game as 18-point underdogs, quarterback Joe Namath guaranteed New York would beat Johnny Unitas' Colts the day before the contest. He was right. The Jets' defense limited the league's second-best scoring offense to just seven points, giving the AFL its first victory over the NFL on football's biggest stage.

2. Super Bowl XXIII, 1989 (49ers def. Bengals, 20-16)

The Bengals came close to spoiling the 49ers' bid for a third Super Bowl, but Joe Montana had other plans. With San Francisco down 16-13 at its own 8-yard line with 3:10 minutes remaining, Montana led a historic 92-yard drive capped off by John Taylor's 10-yard, game-winning touchdown reception with 34 seconds left. Wide receiver Jerry Rice was named Super Bowl MVP after amassing 11 catches for 215 yards and one touchdown in Bill Walsh's last game as the 49ers' head coach.

1. Super Bowl XLIV, 2010 (Saints def. Colts, 31-17)

Super Bowl XLIV featured one of the greatest quarterback matchups in NFL history as Peyton Manning squared off against Drew Brees. Manning was trying to collect his second ring, while Brees looked to complete one of the league's brightest comeback stories after Indianapolis started the game with 10 unanswered points. Brees' record-setting 32 completions (a mark later eclipsed by Tom Brady), Sean Payton's brilliant decision to open the second half with an onside kick, and Tracy Porter's 74-yard pick-6 led the Saints to their first Super Bowl title less than five years after Hurricane Katrina devastated the city of New Orleans.
