Safeties have occurred in back to back Super Bowls two times and three straight once: Super Bowl IX and Super Bowl X; Super Bowl XX and Super Bowl XXI; and three straight in Super Bowl XLVI, Super Bowl XLVII and Super Bowl XLVIII.
Two-point safeties can change a game's dynamics, especially where the spread is concerned. The most popular spreads/wins are 3 and 7 points, followed by the variations such as 6, 10 and 14.
Now imagine a game where the team is up a field goal. The safety adds two points and turns the difference to 5. This is indeed a rare spread. The touchdown plus a two-point safety results in the more common 9-point victory.
Though rare, one-point safeties are also possible. The one point safety is awarded to the offense after they have scored, the defense recovers a failed PAT or 2-point conversion, and the defensive player is then tackled in their own end zone.
