who did the ravens beat in their first super bowl?
new york giants
this was the first super bowl since super bowl xxxvii ten years ago that did not feature the new england patriots, indianapolis colts, or the pittsburgh steelers as the afc representatives, and the only one as of the 2018 season, including the denver broncos, the team that peyton manning was brought to in the 2012 season. baltimore defeated the colts and patriots during the playoffs while the steelers failed to make the playoffs. by contrast, the nfc had a different member go to the super bowl almost every year during that same span, with the new york giants (who won super bowls xlii and xlvi) being the only nfc team to make two appearances during that span. with the 49ers making their first super bowl appearance since super bowl xxix, this left the dallas cowboys (last appeared in super bowl xxx), detroit lions (never appeared in a super bowl), minnesota vikings (last appeared in super bowl xi) and washington redskins (last appeared in super bowl xxvi) as the only nfc teams not to play in a super bowl since 1998, with only the vikings (on three occasions) even advancing to the nfc championship game.
