I picked 2004-05, because that team was special. Ben went “rookie” at the wrong time. Argh!!! We had trounced BOTH of the Super Bowl representatives, and given a “best of seven” scenario, we beat either of them 4-1.
That said, I would have LOVED to have seen our 2001 defense face up against the Rams.
1996-97 was much like 2004-05: we beat the Broncos in the regular season (only to have Kordell go “full Kordell” in the AFCCG).
But... living in San Diego... I could be easily convinced to have reversed the 1994-95 AFCCG against the Chargers. I still hear about that game. That said, no one was likely going to stop San Fran that season (although, with that Steelers defense... I would have loved a shot).
