Poll: Best Super Bowl champ

Comparing teams from different eras is difficult, obviously, on several levels.

But the '85 Bears were easily the most dominant, and my opinion, best, team to win the Super Bowl. Hell they were a 21-point favorite. They could have put up 60 points on the Patriots, if they were so inclined. (Granted, Eason was a pussy and they had to finish the game with Steve Grogan playing with an injured neck. By the same token, I don't think I'd wanna be the QB playing against that defense that day.)

I think the '78 Steelers are in the discussion, maybe the '89 Forty-Niners, but only a physical team like the Steelers would have hung with the Bears that year. Only a simpleton like Mike Ditka could fuck that up. (Wait, he did, along with the tight-fisted Bears front office.)

The '91 Redskins should also be in the mix. That was a dominant team, consistent, head and shoulders over the rest that year. Never mind that Rypien was the quarterback. Didn't matter.

 

For you.

Not for me.

Finishing with 17 wins, going 3-0 in the playoffs, outscoring three playoff teams by an average score of 42-9 is more impressive to me, than going 14-0 against teams that averaged, wait for it, 5-9. Averaged.

It's unheard of.

Three good wins in the playoffs, albeit none in excess of seven points, helps.

But... please.

 

They were not.

I made my first great SB score with them at minus-11.5.

 

The Bears never rallied from behind like this in 85. Never had to.

 

Yeah, that is a pretty good standard

 

I just go on my lifetime... So for me, it'd be the 1989 Niners vs. the 1985 Bears...

 

On ability, the '78 Steelers
On my guess who'd win in the Super Super Up Yonder Bowl, the '66 Packers. In a time when teams had 40-man rosters, they had two Hall of Fame running backs ON THE BENCH!

 

I truly wonder how any of those teams would have done if they had lost their starting QB for more than half the regular season?
And why doesn't any other team with an "easy" schedule run the table?
Looking at them as a whole, the No Name defense, one of the best OLs in NFL history, a HOF WR and QB, plus the 1-2-3 RB punch of Csonka, Morris and Kiick, I dare anyone to come up with a team that good, a team that went to 3 straight SBs and won 2 of them.

 

Fuck the '85 Bears....that is all ;D

 

For my money, the 85 Bears are the best team of the 33 years I've been on this planet...

 

85 Bears, but the 78 Steelers and 77 Cowboys are right up there. All due props to the 72 Dolphins, but they're just not the greatest Super Bowl champs of all time.

For those who care, here's their sked:

Give me the list of teams who have played the schedule against 16 teams averaging 6-10 (which is a better record than 5-9 the Dolphins' opponents had)
