The Raiders first Super Bowl title came after 6 heart breaking attempts. The Raiders lost 6 AFC Championship games to eventual Super Bowl Champions: New York Jets, Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Colts, Miami Dolphins and twice to the Pittsburgh Steelers.  

The Raiders first World Championship was a decisive victory over the NFC Champion Minnestos Vikings, who came into the Super Bowlas heavy favorites. The Raiders dominated the Vikings on their way to a 32-14 victory and John Madden's first and only victory as the Raiders head coach.  

The Raiders second World Championship was won against the NFC Champion Philadelphia Eagles. Once again the Raiders were considerable underdogs after entering the playoffs as an AFC wildcard. The Raider defense dominated the game and the Raiders won handily with a 27-10 victory over the Eagles. The Raiders were the only Wild-Card Super Bowl Champion until the Denver Broncos victory over the Green Bay Packers in  
Super Bowl XXXII.  

The Raiders third World Championship was won against the NFC Champion Washinton Redskins, and once again the Raiders were 
heavy underdogs even after decisive play-off wins against thier AFC opponents. The Raiders handed the Redskins a humiliating 38-9 victory over the NFL's highest scoring offense during the regular season.  

The Raiders three world titles came against heavily favored teams, but came away dominating all three games by a combined score of 97 - 33. The Raiders Super Bowl dominance was characteristic of the never say attitude that has existed for 4 decades.
