Fox Sports has the top 10 best and worst Super Bowl teams of all time. It's fun to see how their lists would compare to yours, and to take a trip down memory lane in the process. And it's interesting to try to figure out what criteria you should judge on, especially with lists like these. Do you rank by the team's overall season performance? Whether they played above or below their heads in the game? The level of the opponent they faced?
I think the "best" list doesn't have nearly the number of Steelers teams it could. Just one, the 1978 team, at #7. On the worst list, the only real surprise was the 1995 Steelers at #10. Several Vikings teams, or the recent Seahwaks or Bears, would have made a fine choice, considering what they did in the years surrounding their Super Bowl run, coupled with how they played in the Super Bowl. However, my friend Bill will be happy to see two Broncos teams on the worst list - though I actually think it's the wrong two.
