Trent Dilfer's performance in Super Bowl XXXV went down as one of the worst showings by any winning quarterback in NFL history – and he still got to go to Disney World.
Even Dilfer has said the Ravens' vaunted 2000 defense carried Baltimore to that Lombardi Trophy.
But Dilfer has company after Super Bowl 50.
Dilfer's performance outshined that of future Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning in Denver's 24-10 win over Carolina.
Here's a look at the stats:
In Super Bowl XXXV, Dilfer was 12 of 25 for 153 yards one touchdown and one fumble, which was recovered by the Ravens. That gave Dilfer a quarterback rating of 80.9.
In Super Bowl 50, Manning was 13 of 23 for 141 yards, threw no touchdowns and had one interception. He fumbled twice and lost one. That gave him a quarterback rating of 56.6.
Denver won with just 194 yards of offense, the fewest of any team in Super Bowl history. The previous low of 244 yards was set by the 2000 Ravens.
"I certainly knew that with this defense, this team would have a chance," Manning said Sunday night. "From the get-go, they've been nothing about awesome."
Manning's output was the fourth-worst quarterback rating of any Super Bowl-winning quarterback in NFL history.
Denver's John Elway posted a 51.9 rating in a Super Bowl XXXII victory and the Baltimore Colts' Earl Morrall posted a 54.0 rating in Super Bowl V.
In 2006, Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger set the lowest QB rating by a victorious quarterback in NFL history (by a long shot). He completed 9 of 21 passes for 123 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions, giving him a 22.6 quarterback rating. Roethlisberger did have a 1-yard touchdown run in the first half.
