Much as I hate to admit it, I'd put the Steelers #1.

They not only dominated the '70s,but have save for a few years, been very good.

I'd put Cowboys up there, but I can't help but think of the last decade.

Green Bay I'll always give props to.

When it came down to the Super Bowl, they really set the standard in the '60s.

I KNOW the AFL was a "joke" at the time, but the Jets proved they were ready for the big show.

All things considered, I'd put the Steelers #1 also. But I'd do it because they lead in SB victories, and the NFL has never been tougher or more competitive than in the SB era. But the Steelers did not dominate the '70s in terms of wins - the Cowboys did. The Steelers have never led any decade in wins. They dominated between '74-'79 and have played well with 2 SB wins in the Roethlisberger era.

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.
