5. 1997 and 1998 Denver Broncos
With the combo of John Elway and Terrell Davis, they should win it all, right? I just thought I would throw them in here because they overcame Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers. They are fifth because they only won the Super Bowl twice.
4. San Francisco 49ers of the 1980s and part of the 1990s
I put the 49ers here because they deserve to be on this list no matter where they are. In this time period, they won seven Super Bowls in this time period. Plus they were great at getting quarterbacks. First Joe Montana, then Steve Young...not bad, considering in all of the seven Super Bowls they got MVP performances out of them four times.
3. The Green Bay Packers
Winning Super Bowls No. 1 and 2 will put you on this list. That is something every sports fan knows. Plus, with Bart Starr at quarterback, they were amazing. Then...he became the head coach and had a disappointing record of 52–76–2. I love the two ties; it's funny to see.
2. The New England Patriots of 2007
At this point, I know you're all thinking "Where are the Patriots?" Well, here they are.
I also know you thought they would be the No. 1 team, but no. I just couldn't do that, because, when I was going to, all my mind thought about was "Spygate." I know they were amazing, but No. 2 isn't bad.
Plus, the only reason they win is because of Tom Brady; without Brady, Belichick's record is 41-56. Yeah, I know, right, the only reason they are winning in Boston is because of Brady.
1. The Moment You Have All Been Waiting for...The 1972 Miami Dolphins
I chose them at No. 1 instead of anywhere else because they went undefeated without a stacked team or cheating. They had Bob Griese at quarterback and were unstoppable.
Plus, they had appeared in three consecutive Super Bowls. They had an amazing coach in Don Shula. The defense wasn't bad, and they were meant to win.
If you disagree to any of these leave a comment and I will argue...ha.
It's been a pleasure, Caleb Fish S.W.

Caleb,
Hey. I think there is a "typo" on the year you have for the MIAMI DOLPHINS. You have 1992, but I think you meant 1972. Check the list again ok, and YES!!!!!!, I agree with you. They are #1

u seriously are an idiot. No i did not check wikipedia, and there is no way you can say that 4 super bowls in one decade does not make a team the best of that decade. ur just mad that a 15 year old knows more about sports than you do. and another thing, how can you compare a team that DID NOT win a super bowl like the 06 dolphins as you mentioned and say they are better than the Steelers of the '70s.
And obviously from my accurate list, there were more than just 3-4 players that made the team good. there were at least NINE. thats how many of the Steelers from those '70s teams are in the Hall of Fame. go check wikipedia and realize that i'm right then go cry yourself to sleep.

i support eddies comment,the steelers of that decade were ouutstanding,eddie maybe you can help me out by telling me who was the corner of those steelers that made the nfl to apply a rule to protect receivers,and also we shouldnt forget the dallas cowboys of the 90s,maybe these players remember those cowboys:
troy aikman
michael irving
emmit smith
deion sanders
jay novacek
darren woodson
ken norton jr
i think that the list should have the cowboys and the steelers and take out denver

Mel Blount's proficiency at playing run and bumb slowed down the passing game so much that the NFL changed the rules to prohibit playing bump and run past 5 yards from the line of scrimmage. It was one of several rule changes implemented to open up the passing game.
Jack Tatum's proficiency with the bent arm hook type tackle to the small of a receivers back (I forget the name given to the technique) led the league to ban this type of hit for player safety. It was one of many moves banned for player safety (head slap, clothesline tackle, facemask grabbing, etc.)

i think you are mistaken, it was Jack Tatum of the Oakland Raiders that hit Daryl Stingley of the Pats in the '70s that made the NFL change the rule to protect the receivers.
and i agree that the cowboys are one of the best teams of all time especially in the '90s.
'70s Steelers
'80s Niners
'90s Cowboys
and '00s Patriots

hey, no need to be a dick about it. i was just pointing out how flawed your article was. then your friend seemed to want to argue about the Steelers of the '70s, so i shut him up. now i gotta deal with you? if i did decide to write my own FRICKEN article then it would be at least a little decent. There is no reason for the '97-'98 Broncos to be on the list and the Steelers should be on there somewhere! They have 5 super bowls for cryin out loud. The Steelers of the '70s had nine hall of famers on the team for the majority of the decade. NINE. how can you possibly leave the Steelers out of the TOP 3 even?
about 1 month ago
Well your response has nothing to do with the argument that was presented. I showed you straight facts to explain how flawed this article was. You come back and state that the Steelers are not deserving of this list and try to tell me you are more experienced and have a greater knowledge of the sports world than I. I simply do not need to show you, or anybody for that matter, how much more intelligent I am than you when it comes to professional sports because you are doing it for me. You my friend have dug yourself a deeper hole than than one you dug earlier. If the Steelers were quote "not even the best team of the seventies", then who was ? Did anyone else get 4 super bowl rings in that decade, did anyone else produce 9 hall of famers from ONE decade? I do not think so. You have not backed up your arguments with anything but false statements and outrageous opinions that make absolutely no sense whatsoever to the history of the Steelers or the history of the NFL. I just simply do not see how the Broncos of the late nineties are better than either the Steelers of the seventies or the Cowboys of the nineties for that matter. This article is sad excuse for what its title leads people to believe.

the 1992 cowboys were the best team ever, there is no defense that could stop that offense, they will have 4 hall of famers from that team, with emmitt, troy, micheal, and larry allen. the hall of fame is hard to make now a days, the 85 bears only have 3 hof from that team. Its hard to compare a 70's team to a team of today b/c players are so much faster and stronger, but i still think the 92 cowboys would win the superbowl today, i dont feel that way about the 70's steelers, 85 bears, or 77 cowboys.

Three teams that should have made the list but didn't: 1985 Bears, 1974 and 79 Steelers. The Steel Curtain!! How can you put a team on there that lost the Super Bowl? (Patriots)
22 days ago
how about throwing the Giants of 86, that was the most ridiculous defense ever with the best defensive player of all time LT. They destroyed people in the playoffs and the broncos in the Superbowl. They were known for the 3-4 defense at that time. They would destroy the 07 patriots, they apparently did with a defense that is great, but it still doesn't match up to the defense of that team.

leaving the 70's STEELERS off of the list of the nfl's greastest teams is the equivalent of leaving michael jordan off of the greatest nba players or babe ruth off of the greatest mlb players. Even the 70's Cowboys & the 72 dolphins got on tv and said the 70's steelers were the best.
