00:00One hell of a job, and the only thing else I got to say is, how about them Cowboys?
00:04You can't have three losses in the game.
00:06How about them Cowboys?
00:08How about them Cowboys?
00:09How about them Cowboys?
00:10They were obnoxious. They were the worst.
00:13You can't have three losses in the game.
00:15This is a team that was 1-15 just a few years ago.
00:17The Cowboys are just rebuilding, and they'll be in the Super Bowl in four years.
00:22That's what happens when you're terrible. You start getting great players.
00:27In the draft.
00:30Five straight losing seasons, along with a plethora of picks from the Herschel Walker tree,
00:35paved the way for the construction of the 10th best team on our list.
00:39That might have been the biggest collection of talent in NFL history.
00:42I loved Troy Aikman. He was a big Emmitt Smith fan.
00:46And then also Michael Irving. Those were my guys.
00:49Also known as the Triplets, the three were talented enough to help the 92 Cowboys make the list,
00:55but not yet at the height of their powers to earn them a higher spot.
01:00I feared everybody. It was awful, because if it wasn't Emmitt Smith...
01:04Raw play. Smith up the middle.
01:06Bounces at the 10.
01:072 to 5.
01:08Cut to the right.
01:09Cut to the left.
01:09Oh!
01:10Emmitt Smith!
01:12And it was Troy Aikman.
01:16And if it wasn't Troy Aikman, it was Michael Irvin.
01:19And who do you think it is? Michael Irvin!
01:25Every element of football, this team overwhelmed every opponent in this path.
01:30The Cowboys played their best when they played the best.
01:35Dallas' 23-point margin of victory in the playoffs is second of the teams on the list.
01:40Lo and behold, they were super well in four years playing the Buffalo Bills, which they beat handily.
01:45They just dominated the Bills. They scored 52 points in the Super Bowl.
01:49Turn the ball nine times!
01:52And if it wasn't for Don Beebe, the ninth turnover would have led to the biggest blowout in Super Bowl
01:57history.
01:58Jimmy Johnson's taken...
02:00It still technically wouldn't have been the biggest blowout, because it would have only been 42 points to the Niners'
02:0745 points in 89.
02:09But it would have been the most points scored in Super Bowl history.
02:20I don't think there was ever a doubt that they were the best team in the league that year, and
02:24that's really how you measure dominance.
02:30We're just one number in, and there's already plenty of debate of the ranking.
02:35When you think of the greatest teams of all time, the 92 Cowboys, eh, not so much.
02:39I actually think 10 is right. 10 is probably good for them.
02:43The Cowboys are number 10? Are you guys out of your mind? Who's making these numbers over there? Who's voting
02:49for this?
02:50I feel like you're wrong. Who made this list?
02:53The ninth greatest team of all time, the 1968 Baltimore Colts.
02:59Well, if all you know about the 1968 Baltimore Colts is that they lost the Super Bowl to the Jets...
03:05The New York Jets are the world champions! They have up-set the Baltimore Colts!
03:10That's like knowing nothing about the 2007 Patriots, except that they lost the Super Bowl to the Giants.
03:17Second in total offense, first in defense, Johnny Unitas on the bench.
03:23Instead of Unitas, the man leading the Colts was Earl Morrill, a gypsy quarterback who had worked without distinction for
03:30four other teams before coming to Baltimore.
03:33With Earl Morrill filling in for Johnny Unitas, they succeeded in a league that featured the Los Angeles Rams with
03:39their fearsome, foursome defensemen.
03:41The Vikings, with Bud Grant coming up and turning into a perennial powerhouse in a league that still included Vince
03:47Lombardi's Packers, playing at an incredibly high level.
03:50Hey! It's supposed to be a hell of a defensive club, but it doesn't look like it to me!
03:53The Colts prevailed over all of those teams.
03:56They were dominant. They were 13-1 during the regular season.
04:00All you need to do is look at the point differential. Phenomenal.
04:03They scored over 400 points. They allowed less than 200.
04:07Baltimore Stevens just took the ball away from town after...
04:11They allowed 100.
04:13Oh, that's not even giving them enough credit.
04:16Just allowed under 200. They allowed 144.
04:2114-game season, they allowed four points less a game than if they were to give up 200.
04:28I mean, just think about that, you know?
04:31The average score of a Colts game in 1968 was 8-10.
04:36They had an ungodly defense from the front to back.
04:39And that is all Coach Don Shuler needed, because nobody scored much against the Colts.
04:46The one team they lost to, the Browns, they destroyed in the playoffs.
04:51Baltimore posted three regular season shutouts.
04:54And a fourth in the NFL Championship game.
04:57And it's been a very gloomy, gloomy Sunday in Cleveland.
05:01But in that great city of Baltimore, it ain't the fear of Colts.
05:05They were essentially an undefeated team, for all intents and purposes.
05:12The 60-21 points.
05:15The Colts were a very good team.
05:18They were balanced, great running game, killer offensive line.
05:22Here comes Earl Morrill, NFL MVP.
05:25This was a team that was in position to become a dynasty.
05:28The Baltimore Colts are heavier favorites to win this Super Bowl game.
05:31And Green Bay was in 1967 and 1968.
05:34I think the Colts were going up against an unusual force in Super Bowl III.
05:40The hopes of an entire football league were on the shoulders of that Jets team that they played.
05:45The ball was right in the hands of Colts.
05:48They had a backup quarterback.
05:53They didn't have film on the Jets.
05:54And they had three Hall of Famers retire the previous season.
05:58They would have blown the Jets out if they had film.
06:02They beat the Jets the next four times.
06:10Face an opponent they had never faced before.
06:12A game plan they weren't expecting.
06:14From a league that they had never seen before.
06:17They had a mulligan in Super Bowl III.
06:20This game is over.
06:21The New York Jets are the world champions in a stunning upset.
06:26They don't deserve to be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 anymore.
06:28But they do not deserve to be forgotten or left off a list of all-time greats.
06:32The A's greatest team of all time.
06:35The 2004 England Patriots.
06:37Oh, they are so great.
06:43When I think of the Patriots, whether it's 0-1, 0-3, 0-4, and 0-4 was the best
06:51iteration,
06:52I think team.
06:54You know, just like team.
06:55Whoever we play next, whoever it is, is pretty good.
06:59We'll need to be at our best, okay?
07:01We're just playing Patriot football.
07:03That's all we do.
07:05That was a collective, and that is as good a collective as I've ever seen.
07:120-4 Patriots are like the least memorable of all the Super Bowl Patriots teams.
07:18But they were probably one of the most complete.
07:21This was a team that shut you down defensively.
07:23And immediately driving down to the 41.
07:25And there we go.
07:26The Patriots have a football.
07:27And they just beat you up offensively.
07:29Brady shoots it long.
07:31And he's gone.
07:32He's got it.
07:33And he's gone.
07:34Touchdown!
07:35Tom Brady watching the 60-yard bomb!
07:39That's what was so brilliant.
07:40This was the balanced Patriots team.
07:43Look, I can't put you in a game if you don't do.
07:47All right?
07:48You can't do it.
07:49I don't want to hear about what any of the situation...
07:51What they did to Manning in the playoff game,
07:55Manning threw 49 touchdowns that season.
07:59That means he averaged more than three touchdowns a game.
08:04The Colts offense per three points in that game.
08:08Three touchdowns to three points.
08:10The Colts offense per three points.
08:14The situation's are, you just playing.
08:18Belichick's whole thing was building a culture, building a team.
08:21But on the other hand, you can also go out and exploit the system like Bill Belichick has
08:26and get these bargain-basement guys, guys like Mike Vrabel.
08:29Back to throw.
08:30The rush going to be hit, going to be sacked.
08:32Vrabel came with a vengeance that time.
08:35Corey Dillon running for 1,600 yards.
08:38And Rodney Harrison.
08:50When you look at the Patriots, this was a team that grabbed spare parts that other teams
08:54didn't necessarily want.
08:56That's how you have to build a dynasty.
08:58Bill Belichick's been doing it for a decade.
09:032004 New England Patriots finished their season at 14-2, boasting the second-best record in
09:09the league.
09:09But what really makes them worthy of our top 10 list is their total team ascension into
09:15greatness.
09:15This beat Manning Colts, T.O., 15-1 team.
09:22Is probably the Patriots team, and here's why.
09:27Because the chart was going like this.
09:30He still had the vestiges of the great defense of 0-1 with an ascending Tom Brady into greatness.
09:38And they coincided here in 2004.
09:41And that was the most well-rounded of all the Patriots championship teams.
09:45Second goal for the last year.
09:47Brady signing straight over.
09:49He looks to the left and he fires to the right.
09:52They had an offense with Tom Brady ascending to being one of the greatest of all time.
09:57Touchdown to David Gibb.
10:00They had the number one defense.
10:0217 seconds away from back-to-back world championships.
10:08Looks.
10:08Fires left.
10:10Intercepted.
10:11And it's it.
10:13World champions again.
10:15Back-to-back.
10:17Three out of four.
10:18And they put it together into one season.
10:21Fans of New England, this is your third Super Bowl in four years.
10:27And I'm proud that we were able to win stressing team and not individual accomplishment.
10:41I think the 98 Broncos are one of the more underrated teams in NFL history.
10:46They probably didn't get the hype as being one of the greatest.
10:49One wouldn't expect a team with Sha...
10:53Overrated.
10:53Who do they play in the playoffs?
10:56And in Sharp wanted to be lacking in any hype.
11:00If you leave now, you get a half-fellow traffic.
11:04Sharp and the 98 Broncos were coming off the franchise's first Super Bowl victory.
11:08And with 19 of 22 starters returning, they were on a mission to repeat.
11:14In order for you to start to be special, you gotta win two.
11:19We thought we were special.
11:21We knew we were special.
11:25Shannon Sharp, unbelievable pass catcher.
11:28Ed McCaffrey, Rod Smith, John Elway.
11:31Weapons across the offense.
11:32Even with John Elway missing four games because of injury,
11:36the offensive firepower of Denver won its first 13 games.
11:40But what made this Broncos team so great was not the Hall of Famer under center,
11:45but the Hall of Famer in the backfield.
11:47John Elway doesn't have those two rings without Terrell Davis.
11:51And in 98, Terrell Davis is the best player in football.
12:00What are your thoughts of me being that they break 2,000 yards?
12:04Have I ever thought about that?
12:05Yeah, and you were close last year.
12:07I mean, why not?
12:08Most for Domus, I'm Mark Albright.
12:10Terrell Davis rushed for over 2,000 yards.
12:13Wade was being named the MVP in 1998.
12:16Was as dominant a player as the league seemed.
12:18Broncos were so dominant with Davis,
12:20would sit out eight quarters.
12:22Or the two things as he rushed for over 2,000 yards.
12:25Nah, I'm good.
12:26Nice.
12:28You had to race.
12:29Nah, I just won't take that.
12:32You wanted to work in the record.
12:34You know what I remember about this game?
12:35I went to that Super Bowl against the Falcons,
12:38and it was like the worst game I've ever been to in my life.
12:44Denver capped its season full of routes with another,
12:47as the Broncos took the Dirty Birds to the clears in Super Bowl 33.
12:57A 34-19 victory cemented the Broncos into the top 10 greatest teams.
13:03My name was history.
13:04It's got to be one of the greatest seasons of all time.
13:11So they had Davis, Sharp, Elway, McCaffrey.
13:18We're all Pro Bowlers on that team.
13:21In total, the 98 Broncos had 10 Pro Bowlers that season.
13:26Died for most on our list.
13:28So what's keeping them only at number seven?
13:30I understand Pro Bowls are important.
13:32I understand having 10 Pro Bowls is an impressive accomplishment,
13:34but, I mean, the teams in front of them are pretty legendary.
13:38The sixth greatest team of all time,
13:41the 1985 Chicago Bears.
13:43Six?
13:44Number six on the list of 85 Bears is a complete crock.
13:48Six?
13:49Really?
13:50Because you're from somewhere else.
13:51That's why they're number six.
13:5285 Bears, you got midway in the pack.
13:5585 Bears?
13:57Are you kidding me?
13:58They were iconic.
13:59They were legendary.
14:01And they were so, so good and so dominant.
14:07They're so low in the green.
14:13Monsters in the midway, man.
14:15They might have arguably the greatest defense of all time
14:19on one side of the ball
14:20and arguably the greatest running back in NFL history
14:24on the other side of the ball.
14:25What?
14:26The reason that they're great
14:28is they weren't just confined to the world of the NFL.
14:33It's a team of sheer characters.
14:36We've got Jim McMahon, like, style.
14:39Outrageousness.
14:42They were so good that their greatness inspired an SNL sketch.
14:46The Bears.
14:47The Bears, 85 to 2.
14:48The Bears, they were Hollywood at the time.
14:51Mike Ditka was a celebrity before coaches were celebrities.
14:55He was the sensei.
14:57See that?
14:58That's your IQ, buddy.
14:59Zero.
14:59He just tells you what he thinks,
15:01which I think is an important...
15:07I know, I know I'm smarter than that.
15:09You know, not to beat around the bush
15:10and, you know, talk behind guys' backs,
15:12go right up to their face.
15:14I don't know how much of a Bears fan I am,
15:16but I suppose that I can talk about the ballet
15:19and athleticism of the greatest running back of all time.
15:24Sweetness.
15:26And then they had William Refrigerator Perry,
15:28who was kind of larger than life and just superhuman.
15:32The refrigerator.
15:35And this bear loves the light, smooth, taste of cocoa.
15:39You've got to keep a lot of coke in the refrigerator.
15:41What I remember mostly about that was,
15:44even though Fridge played defense,
15:45they decided to give him the ball a couple times
15:47just because he was so big.
15:50First and goal inside the Green Bay 1 for the Bears.
15:56It was just this collection of incredible characters.
16:03Part of being the greatest team ever in football,
16:06you have to be...
16:06Fear.
16:07You were afraid to play him
16:08because of total manlike domination and pain inflicted.
16:15They had this dominance on defense.
16:19The whole, like, junkyard dogs persona.
16:23The Bears defense scared the bejesus out of quarterbacks
16:27and they became like little boys
16:29playing against nasty, unfed men
16:33that had just gotten out of federal prison
16:35after a 20-year run.
16:37That's how nasty they were.
16:39Started with good tempo now.
16:41Be smart.
16:41Let's go down.
16:42Pin them in.
16:43Let's go to work.
16:44Their playoff run is disgusting.
16:46It's literally disgusting.
16:48They play the Giants.
16:49Great players on both sides of the ball.
16:51Shotgun formation for the Bears.
16:54Big man.
16:54He puffs line.
16:55The right side of the end zone for the game.
16:56Touchdown!
16:58They beat him 21-0.
17:00Okay?
17:00They play the Rams.
17:01Eric Dickerson.
17:02Hand off Dickerson.
17:03Hit by single.
17:04Very good.
17:05Back down.
17:05At the line of scrimmage.
17:07Best running back in the league.
17:09They beat him.
17:10They beat him.
17:12And then in the Super Bowl,
17:13they absolutely thrashed the Patriots.
17:16Disgusting.
17:1746 to 10.
17:21They gave up 10 points the entire postseason
17:24when they're averaged game by 27.
17:29You just saw two defensive touchdowns.
17:31They would have still outscored their opponents
17:35if they'd never did anything on offense.
17:42Really?
17:48Obliterate everyone.
17:50That's how you finish the deal
17:51and prove that you're the best.
17:53Best on our list?
17:54Not quite.
17:56With an offense that didn't meet
17:57the near-mythical proportions
17:59of its hard-nosed defense,
18:01it's hard to put them any higher
18:03than number six on our list.
18:04I think that is perfectly rated.
18:07I think that's fair.
18:08That feels a little high for me.
18:10The fifth-greatest team of all time.
18:12The 1962 Green Bay Packers.
18:16If you're going to be a great team,
18:18you have to, from September
18:19until whenever the championship game is,
18:22you have to dominate week in and week out.
18:24And that's what the 62 Packers did.
18:26Just about every game they played was a blowout.
18:30The Packers.
18:32Opponents in 1962
18:34outscoring them
18:36415 to 148,
18:38including a 49-0 flattening
18:41of the only team to defeat
18:43Vince Lombardi
18:44in the playoffs.
18:45Oh, God.
18:47That was as thorough a domination
18:50as you're likely to ever see
18:51in a national football game.
18:53The first time facing the Eagles
18:55since their defeat
18:55in the 1960 championship game,
18:58the Packers left no doubt
18:59who was the better team
19:01in this one.
19:02This was clearly Lombardi's revenge.
19:04They outgamed the Philadelphia Eagles
19:05628 to 54 in the game.
19:08The 628 yards
19:09still to this day
19:11is the most yards
19:12that's ever been given up
19:14by the Eagles in a game.
19:15Remember, there's only, what,
19:1614 teams in the NFL.
19:18You shouldn't have one team
19:19that's that far superior
19:20for that long.
19:22Despite dismantling the Giants
19:23in the championship game,
19:25the lack of competition
19:26in the NFL at the time,
19:28prevents the Packers
19:28from being higher on our list.
19:30They dominated the championship game.
19:32The Green Bay Packers
19:34are the League of Football League champions.
19:40The 1962 Packers resume
19:42includes a long list
19:44of accomplishments
19:44that earned them
19:45the number five spot.
19:47They have what is considered
19:48the best rushing attack
19:50in the history of football,
19:51and by the way,
19:52their quarterback
19:53led the NFL in passing yards.
19:54In Jim Brown's career,
19:55he led the league in rushing
19:56every year,
19:57except 62.
19:59Jim Taylor led the league in rushing.
20:01Yep.
20:02Think about drafting
20:03or acquiring
20:0411 Hall of Famers
20:06on one team.
20:07Vince Lombardi,
20:08Bart Starr,
20:09Ray Nitschke,
20:10Jim Ringo,
20:11Jim Taylor.
20:12Herb Adderley,
20:13Henry Jordan,
20:14Willie Wood,
20:15and Davis,
20:16Willie Wood,
20:17Paul Hornig,
20:18and Forrest Gregg
20:20gave the Packers
20:21a list of
20:2311 Hall of Famers
20:24and one heck of a cast
20:26for their Hall of Fame coach
20:28to work with.
20:28This was Lombardi's
20:30crowning achievement,
20:31was to build the 62 Packers.
20:33That was the year
20:33the Vince Lombardi Packers
20:35became the Vince Lombardi Packers,
20:37a team that has trophies
20:38and dynasties
20:39and everything named after.
20:41That's the way,
20:42all right.
20:42When you say,
20:43hey,
20:43this was Vince Lombardi's
20:45best team,
20:47like,
20:47just think about that sentence.
20:49This was Vince Lombardi's
20:50best team.
20:52That's the best one
20:53right there.
20:53That was the best one
20:54right there.
20:57The 60s will be described
20:59as the decade
21:00in which the Packers
21:02were the number one team
21:04in America.
21:05The former president
21:07isn't the only one
21:08who thinks this Packers team
21:09is right too low.
21:10You start wondering
21:11if this is maybe
21:13the greatest team
21:13of all time,
21:14certainly in the conversation.
21:16I think this is
21:16the greatest team ever.
21:17The 1962 Packers,
21:19the greatest team
21:19of all time.
21:20The fourth greatest team
21:22of all time,
21:23the undefeated 1972
21:24Miami Dolphins.
21:27Based on what the teams did,
21:29no one can hold a candle
21:30to the 1972 Dolphins.
21:31Undefeated and champions
21:32is undefeated and champions.
21:34The Dolphins,
21:35they weren't pretty in 1972.
21:37They played ball-control football,
21:38but they played it
21:39to absolute perfection.
21:4117-0 speaks for itself.
21:42They dominated
21:43in every facet
21:45of the game.
21:47Even with an injury
21:48to Hall of Famer
21:49Bob Greasy,
21:50the Dolphins boasted
21:51the number one offense
21:52with a rushing attack
21:53of Zonka,
21:54Kick,
21:54and Morris,
21:56while the no-name defense
21:57was the league's best
21:59as well.
22:00If you win all your games
22:01and the Super Bowl,
22:02that's it.
22:03It's the greatest team.
22:05Exactly.
22:07So what arguments
22:08could be made
22:09for putting the undefeated
22:10Dolphins at number four?
22:12If you go to the time machine,
22:13line them all up,
22:14they're not the number one team.
22:16I think teams on the list
22:17ahead of them
22:17would beat them
22:18in a one-on-one situation.
22:20Winning percentage
22:21of the teams
22:21that they played
22:22was terrible.
22:23The combined record
22:24of Miami's opponents
22:26in 1972
22:26was 70 wins
22:28to 122 losses
22:30and four ties.
22:31Good for a whopping
22:32367 winning percentage.
22:35You play who's on your schedule.
22:36You don't lobby the commissioner
22:37and say,
22:38hey, we want to be known
22:38as one of the great...
22:40367.
22:41That's, that's like
22:42tie-cost batting average.
22:44Greatest teams of all time
22:45on an NFL films documentary
22:4745 years from now.
22:51An undefeated team
22:52had to go on the road
22:53in a playoff game
22:54that was a little crazy
22:55back then.
22:57Come playoff time,
22:58the schedule wasn't so easy
22:59for the Dolphins
23:00who had to beat
23:01the Steelers in Pittsburgh.
23:03So the Dolphins
23:04should have had a home field.
23:04They played at three rivers
23:05against a team
23:07that was about to win
23:07four Super Bowls
23:08in six years
23:09and they beat them too.
23:10But an undefeated team
23:12in the Super Bowl
23:12must certainly be favored to win
23:14even against
23:15the mighty Redskins.
23:16The Dolphins
23:17did
23:18throughout the season.
23:19I think they may have
23:20even been an underdog
23:21going into this game.
23:22despite the fact
23:23that they were undefeated.
23:24That's right.
23:25An undefeated team
23:27was two-point underdogs
23:29going into Super Bowl VII.
23:31You got to do Miami.
23:32You think it's got to win.
23:34I got to.
23:36Why?
23:37I just wait for nothing,
23:39you know.
23:40No sense in losing now.
23:42On the grandest stage,
23:44the no-name defense
23:45pitched a shutout
23:46until Geralt's gaff
23:47to put an exclamation point
23:49on a perfect season.
23:51The Dolphins have won
23:52Super Bowl
23:53and win the greatest season
23:55in NFL history.
24:04this Dolphins squad
24:05was the only squad
24:07to beat the Steelers
24:08at home
24:08in a playoff game
24:09between
24:1048 and 81.
24:12There's nearly
24:1335 seasons.
24:15That has to count
24:16for something.
24:21Ah.
24:2445 years later,
24:26the legend
24:26of the 72 Dolphins
24:28still spooks those today.
24:30The minute a team
24:31gets to like
24:315 or 6 and 0,
24:33that becomes
24:33a weekly obsession.
24:35Our ghosts
24:36crop up
24:37every year
24:37when anyone
24:38makes it past
24:38that 5 and 0 mark
24:40and suddenly
24:40the 72 Dolphins
24:42ghosts start to appear.
24:43And that's a hoot.
24:45I like being a go-
24:47The third greatest spot
24:48of the 2007
24:50New England Patriots.
24:52The 2007
24:53New England Patriots
24:54cannot be on this list.
24:5618 and 0
24:57hadn't been done.
24:59I think they should
25:00at least be one or two.
25:02Who made this goofy list?
25:03A team who didn't
25:05win the Super Bowl
25:05you guys have above
25:06a team that won?
25:07Let's stop right there.
25:09There was a lot of
25:09debate on this ranking
25:11and we'll get back
25:12to it later.
25:13First,
25:13the case to be made
25:14for the 2007 Patriots.
25:16Let's go!
25:19The Patriots
25:20won 9 in a row.
25:22Patriots
25:23are 15 and 0.
25:25And for the first time
25:26in the 88-year history
25:27of the National Football League,
25:29a team
25:30has won
25:30all 16
25:31regular season games.
25:33They are the best
25:34regular season team
25:34of all time.
25:35The record books
25:36were rewritten
25:37during the Patriots
25:372007 campaign.
25:39The offense
25:40put up the most
25:41points in a season
25:42and their
25:42almost 20-point
25:44average margin victory
25:45is the highest
25:46on this list.
25:47That team
25:48was insane.
25:49The 07 Patriots
25:50were unstoppable.
25:52It's like Tom Brady
25:53had a fine...
25:54But they got stopped.
25:56So...
25:57...in car garage.
25:58He's like,
25:58oh, I'll take out
25:59the Welker today.
26:04Moss for the evening.
26:05Hey, look down
26:07one side
26:07and buy an 81.
26:08I'm going deep.
26:09Brady fires it.
26:14Touchdown Patriots!
26:16For Tom Brady,
26:18touchdown pass
26:19number 50.
26:20An NFL record.
26:21For Randy Moss,
26:22touchdown reception
26:23number 23.
26:24An NFL record.
26:25But it was the next
26:27time the Giants
26:28and Patriots
26:28faced off
26:29that makes this
26:30ranking so divisive.
26:35A team was better
26:36than Patriots
26:36and that was
26:37the New York Giants.
26:38And I can prove it.
26:39Put the tape on.
26:41Third and five
26:42from their own 44.
26:44Manny takes the snap.
26:46Back to throw.
26:47Under pressure.
26:48Avoids the rush
26:49and he's going to
26:50fight out of it.
26:51Still fights out of it.
26:52Now throws it
26:52deep downfield.
26:55And he takes the catch.
26:57That's a 24 to play.
26:59That's a play by Manny.
27:01They were an insanely good,
27:03historically good team.
27:04And then the dude
27:05made a weird magnet catch
27:07by cramming a full
27:09ball.
27:09All the f***ing happens.
27:11Manny,
27:11lots of left.
27:12First is wide open.
27:13Touchdown Giants!
27:14The Patriots
27:15see their undefeated season
27:17go up in smoke.
27:19Every Giants fan
27:20is sitting at home
27:21going,
27:21yeah, that's right.
27:22Smell it.
27:26The upset in Super Bowl 42
27:28might have made this
27:29the most controversial
27:30ranking in top 10 history
27:32where no side was happy.
27:33Ah, I feel like you
27:35screwed up the 07 Patriots
27:37by putting them
27:37at number three.
27:38I feel like that's
27:39a little bit of a slight.
27:40You guys like
27:41messed that up.
27:42You seem to didn't win
27:42the Super Bowl
27:43at number three.
27:44I think number three
27:45is fine.
27:46I might even have them
27:46higher.
27:47You can't say
27:48you're the best ever
27:49if you lost
27:50the Super Bowl.
27:51It's ridiculous
27:52that you guys have
27:54non-Super Bowl winners
27:55on the 10 of them.
27:56What are we doing?
27:57They lost.
27:58Saying much more
27:59than joke.
28:00It's a joke.
28:01Let's get real
28:02for a moment.
28:02Who was really
28:03the best?
28:04It's the 2007 Patriots.
28:06The second greatest
28:07team of all time.
28:08The 1978.
28:10Yeah,
28:10the 1978
28:11Pittsburgh Steelers.
28:1378.
28:14They had their
28:15most dominant season
28:16out there.
28:17There are 27 teams
28:18in pro football.
28:19And then,
28:21there are
28:21the Pittsburgh Steelers.
28:23The Steel Curtain.
28:25Bradshaw.
28:26Legend.
28:27Good friend.
28:28They had 10 pro bowlers
28:29on that team.
28:30Mean Joe Green.
28:32Rocky Blyer.
28:33Jack Lambert.
28:34Jack Lambert.
28:35No teeth.
28:36And he had twig legs.
28:38And he would eat you
28:39for dinner.
28:40He was the nastiest
28:41linebacker
28:42in the history
28:43of the NFL.
28:44And that was the game
28:45of the Steel Curtain.
28:46Right there.
28:47To the team.
28:50When I was a kid,
28:52I had Steelers
28:53Cowboys as my
28:53vibrating football game.
28:54So I can tell you
28:55the 78 Steelers
28:56were a very good team.
28:58The defense.
28:59That defense.
29:00That was what
29:00it was all about.
29:01No one did anything
29:02against that defense.
29:03Hear that, folks!
29:04Get out of here!
29:05There we are!
29:06The Steel Curtain Steelers
29:07just dominated to a degree
29:08that they forced
29:09the NFL to.
29:11due to the sheer
29:12visceral physicality
29:14of Steelers
29:15cornerback
29:15Mel Blunt.
29:16In 1978,
29:17the league
29:18prohibited contact
29:19with wide receivers
29:20beyond five yards
29:22from the line
29:22of scrimmage.
29:23The 1978 team,
29:25having made
29:25the entire NFL
29:26change the rules
29:27to stop them,
29:28evolved to fit the rules
29:29and actually got better.
29:31The football's
29:32most prolific passer.
29:34That opens things up
29:36for Terry Bradshaw
29:37and Lynn Swan
29:38and John Stallworth
29:39to beat you
29:39with the passing game
29:40that you opened up
29:42for them.
29:42Bradshaw is back
29:43and he's going to Swan
29:45and Swan makes
29:46a circus catch.
29:47Obviously the defense
29:48was dominant
29:49no matter what,
29:50but the 1978 team
29:51can suddenly beat you
29:52with short passing,
29:53long passing,
29:54Swan,
29:55Stallworth,
29:56balance.
29:57Bradshaw.
29:57That's a flat
29:58for the touchdown
29:58straight down the middle.
30:00This is the team
30:01that has the complete package,
30:02the package that we think
30:03of nowadays
30:04as a modern NFL champion
30:05that can do everything.
30:07Anytime you look
30:08at any great team,
30:10how about who
30:11they had to beat?
30:12You know,
30:13who did you have to beat
30:14to win it all?
30:16The 78 Steelers
30:18played a Cowboys team
30:19that had already been
30:21to the Super Bowl
30:21four times
30:22during the decade
30:23and just won the Super Bowl
30:25in a blowout
30:25the year before
30:26and had
30:27Hall of Fame head coach,
30:29Hall of Fame quarterback,
30:30Hall of Fame tailback,
30:31and then guys on defense.
30:33I look at that
30:34and I'm saying
30:34that's why I think
30:35Super Bowl XIII
30:36is just...
30:38Well,
30:38they beat both
30:39previous year's
30:41Super Bowl
30:41participants.
30:43Amazing game
30:44in NFL history.
30:45Bradshaw
30:46was the MVP
30:47in a Super Bowl.
31:00Bradshaw
31:00hesitates
31:01to Rocky Blair.
31:03The Steelers
31:04dominated the game.
31:06I'll tell you,
31:07I'm out of breath
31:08because this is
31:09some kind of
31:10a Super Bowl.
31:11Staubach is back deep
31:12and he winds up
31:14and throws.
31:14Intercepted by blood
31:15at the 20.
31:16Mel Blunt
31:17came up
31:18with the interception.
31:19They had the best defense
31:20in the NFL.
31:21They were blowing them out.
31:23Cowboys could do nothing.
31:24Swans,
31:25unbelievable catch
31:26for the touchdown.
31:28Holy...
31:29And they strike again.
31:31He looks like
31:32a flying circus
31:34and the Southern
31:35Cow Flyer
31:36pulled it in.
31:37I think that this was
31:39probably the best
31:40concentration of talent
31:42in Pittsburgh.
31:44It was all able
31:46to come together
31:46in 1978.
31:48And when you're
31:49the best team
31:50of an historically
31:51great dynasty,
31:52you deserve to be
31:53number two
31:54on our list.
31:55The first team
31:56in the history
31:57of the NFL
31:57to win it three times.
31:59The greatest team
32:03of...
32:05The 1989
32:06San Francisco 49ers.
32:10The 1989
32:12San Francisco
32:1449ers.
32:15The 89 Niners
32:15were great.
32:16They just cut through
32:17their entire schedule.
32:18Black 59 Razor!
32:20Black 59 Razor!
32:22What do you guys do?
32:23Back to throw.
32:24Pump fake by Montana.
32:25Montana launches it
32:26for the end.
32:26Don't!
32:27Jerry Rice!
32:28Oh!
32:29What a catch by Rice!
32:30Joe Montana.
32:31Jerry Rice.
32:32A perfect pass
32:33to Jerry Rice.
32:34They felt like
32:35they were the best team
32:36in football.
32:37We know we're
32:37the best team!
32:38And they couldn't
32:39be stopped.
32:43The 49ers
32:44were the best.
32:45They were unbelievable.
32:46They dominated that league.
32:48Back to back
32:48Super Bowl champions.
32:49Well, you start
32:50with the fact that
32:50if you go to their
32:51backup quarterback,
32:52you get a Hall of Famer.
32:53You have Joe Montana
32:54and Steve Young
32:55out there.
32:55So, this team
32:56will crush you
32:57with this backup quarterback.
32:59That was kind of
32:59the Niners
32:59at the height
33:00of their powers
33:00player-wise.
33:01Joe Montana
33:02was locked in.
33:03This is a touchdown!
33:04Jerry Rice,
33:05the grace receiver,
33:05ever,
33:06was in his prime.
33:07Right over the shoulder!
33:08You hear it all the time.
33:09Montana to Rice.
33:10Montana to Rice.
33:12Like, this team,
33:14I don't think
33:14they're number one,
33:15but this team had
33:18a guy retired
33:20as the all-time
33:20quarterback,
33:22all-time receiver,
33:24all-time safety.
33:27So, they had
33:28three of the greatest
33:29the GOATs
33:30of their positions.
33:33It's insane.
33:44And I'll tell you,
33:45Roger Craig
33:46can do so many
33:47things for you.
33:48A discouraging run
33:50for the defense
33:51by Roger Craig.
33:52He knocked
33:53a couple people down,
33:54knocked a couple
33:54of his own players
33:55out of the way.
33:56I just remember
33:57thinking,
33:58this is
33:59a well-oiled machine.
34:01This is how
34:02a well-oiled machine
34:03works.
34:06It was like
34:07watching a ballet.
34:09Agile.
34:11So elegant.
34:13Beautiful to watch.
34:17Just complete control
34:18of the offense.
34:19The league's
34:20number one offense
34:21in 1989
34:22was not only
34:23potent,
34:24but efficient.
34:25Joe Kuhl
34:26had one of the
34:26greatest passing
34:27seasons in NFL
34:28history,
34:29completing over
34:2970% of his targets,
34:31which makes you think
34:32if they were
34:33this great on offense,
34:34who did they have
34:35on defense?
34:36We all overlook
34:37who's on the
34:38defensive side
34:38of that ball.
34:39Up and down
34:39the defense,
34:40who had great
34:40players.
34:47We have Charles Haley,
34:49who is just an
34:50unstoppable force
34:52on the pass rush.
34:53Pressure by Haley,
34:54and the ball
34:55slips out of his
34:56hands.
34:56You have Ronnie Lott,
34:57who at this point
34:58had gone from
34:59just this terror
35:00as a cornerback
35:01to a complete
35:03defensive back
35:04who could beat you
35:04a dozen different ways
35:05in the secondary.
35:06Ronnie Lott intercepts.
35:08He's in for six points
35:09for San Francisco.
35:11Without the legendary
35:12offense,
35:13that 49ers defense
35:15might have just
35:15won him a Super Bowl.
35:17I think there's
35:18something to saying
35:20that a dominant
35:21Super Bowl performance
35:22helps elevate you
35:23to this list.
35:24It's always Joe Montana.
35:27You can't deny
35:28what he did
35:28in that Super Bowl.
35:29That wasn't a slouched
35:31team, that Denver
35:31Broncos team.
35:32It was a dominating
35:33performance against
35:34a John Elway-led team
35:36with great stars.
35:37And that game
35:38was over before
35:39it started.
35:40Montana rolls
35:41to the right.
35:41Back across the middle.
35:43He clicks the right.
35:44Into the end zone.
35:45Touchdown, 49ers.
35:46It was almost like
35:47jiu-jitsu.
35:48Precision,
35:49knowing where the
35:49third and fourth
35:50receivers are
35:51at the clinic.
35:52Just sheer efficiency.
35:54They had eight
35:55touchdowns in the
35:56Super Bowl.
35:56The Broncos defense
35:57had no answers
36:0115-5 points
36:02on the Broncos.
36:03It was ugly.
36:03Caught by Jones
36:04to the end zone.
36:05Touchdown.
36:07They won their
36:08average playoff game
36:09by 33 points.
36:14That 89 team,
36:16that was a coronation.
36:21Definitely deserve
36:22to be on this list.
36:23They're an amazing team.
36:24I think he got them
36:25too high.
36:26No, this is the team.
36:27This is the team.
36:28That is the greatest
36:28team of all time
36:29ever built.
36:30I don't think anyone
36:31can really argue it.
36:32They took the governor
36:32off and just blew it away.
36:34Greatest single season
36:35team of all time?
36:3689 49ers.
36:39Love it.
37:22Bye.
37:22Bye.
