Interesting list of great teams in this article. But I'm not even sure they got the best San Francisco 49er team at the top of the list! The 1984 49ers may have been better than the 1989 team. They were #2 in scoring offense and #1 in scoring defense in the NFL (with all their offensive firepower it's easy to overlook just how good those 49er teams were defensively), and they accomplished a pretty amazing feat for the first and only time in NFL history -- all four of their defensive backs started for the NFC in the Pro Bowl.

I might agree with you on the ‘84 49’ers. I geuss they figure 55 points in the super bowl is pretty hard to top.

I would agree about the 84 49ers was at least as good as 89. I also think the 1978 Steelers team belongs in the top five (and I’m a lifelong Dallas fan) and possibly the 1986 Packers team.
