If you could pick one team as the ideal one to be the face of the NFL which one would it be? I'm a Steelers fan and I think they represent all the good in the game.They're not a big free agent player every year, there are no individuals (they all buy into the team concept) and you very rarely ever hear about problem childs, and they win.The organization is also devoted to their coaches as much as their players.

The Green Bay Packers may disagree with you.

While I agree with you 100%, I like to see the older teams like the Packers, Bears, Steelers than the newer ones as best representing the NFL.

Definitely the older teams. The ownership structure of the Packers makes them tough to beat, but there are several teams that would fit - Steelers, Bears, Giants etc. I'm a Cowboys fan, but recent years would rule them out unfortunately.

I think the Pack also represent the league well as a working class team.

Sadly, I have to agree.....

If any team best represents the NFL, no doubt it's the Packers. Really, they are the only pro sports team in this country that's located in a town with less than 200,000 people. And they have survived all these decades and have won the most titles. So it just makes sense....

While I am biased, I would have to say the Packers. They are owned by their fans and dont chase million dollar crybabies. They build their teams the old fashioned way. The last big name FA they signed as Reggie White over 15 years ago.
