The 1980 Oakland Raiders entered Super Bowl XV against the NFC Champion Philadelphia Eagles as the ultimate underdogs. Not only were the Raiders the first wild card team to advance to the Super Bowl since the NFL adopted the new playoff format in 1978, but the Eagles had already defeated the Silver and Black, 10-7, just eight weeks earlier. This matchup would be markedly different, as a team that started the season with just a 2-3 record would claim the club’s second championship with a dominating 27-10 victory. The Raiders wasted no time establishing themselves in New Orleans, as Rod Martin picked off a Ron Jaworski pass on the game’s third play and returned it 25 yards to set up a Jim Plunkett touchdown pass to Cliff Branch. Later in the first quarter, Plunkett hit Kenny King for an 80-yard touchdown strike that set a then-Super Bowl record and gave the Silver and Black a 14-0 lead. Head coach Tom Flores, employing a philosophy of pressure football, kept the offense firing away in the second half. Plunkett engineered a third-quarter drive that culminated in a 29-yard touchdown pass to Branch that gave the Raiders an insurmountable 21-3 lead. Chris Bahr added two field goals in the second half and the defense, led by a
Super Bowl-record three interceptions by Martin, surrendered only a fourth-quarter touchdown. Plunkett was tabbed for MVP honors after completing 13-of-21 passes for 261 yards and three touchdowns as the Silver and Black became the first wild card team in NFL history to win the Super Bowl.
