The NFC style of play totally dominated the AFC from the early 1980s through the mid-1990s. It was kind of pathetic, actually.

The ball control offense and dominant pressure defense brought to the game by teams like Washington, Chicago, the New York Giants and Dallas really made AFC teams like Denver and Buffalo look inept. San Francisco was the only exception to this standard in those days, and even that team was far stronger defensively than they got credit for.

I remember thinking at the time that the Cleveland Brown were the one top AFC team of the late 1980s that played an NFC-style game, and would have stood the best chance of beating those NFC teams in a Super Bowl.
