Meh. Steelers are .515 lifetime, compared to .548 for the Giants and .563 for the packers. They’re 74-79 run is truly impressive; the NFL’s only true dynasty, although I’d hear arguments for the 70-78 Cowboys as well... but they were simply never good until 1970. And 80-92 was a pretty long dry spell, too.

I might be just a tad negative towards them seeing the way they had to politicize things for President Obama.

Agreed, but being a great football team that happens to donate to liberals?

Sure I hate their politics, but still a great franchise.

And WTF with the Lions? They've been around forever.

The Steelers were 4-0 in super bowls during that run, meaning they did not make it to the big game twice.

In the eight year period from 1960 to 67, the Packers were 5-1 in NFL championship games. They also did not make it twice.

This 49'er fan votes for the Packers as the all time best.

As a 12 year season ticket holder I will also say this: The Cheeseheads are the best visiting fans in the league (Saints a close second).
