Since Super Bowl I, which team in your opinion would win a round robin tournament? This has been debated many times, but it seems like in this forum, the topic has yet to be broached, so I thought I'd create a poll and have discussion.

Not that I'm a fan, but wouldn't you put the New England Patriots on that list?

That's what I started to say....the chowdaheads will be riled for not including the '03-04 Pats. Or are they disqualified due to cheating?

I thought hard about putting them on there, but decided not to, and for the following reason: they never dominated other teams. If you look at their margins of victory over those 4 years, 2001-04, they won games by maybe an average of 8 to 10 points. Contrast that with a team such as the 1976 Pittsburgh Steelers, which shut out 4 opponents in 6 weeks, or the 1985 Bears, who outscored their opponents in the playoffs 91-10.

I'm going to go with the Homer pick and take the 96-98 Broncos. The 96 and 97 teams were tough, but that 1998 team would have matched up favorably with any team in modern history.

What kind of stupid poll is this? You don't even have the '89 49ers on there.

The top 3 teams in the NFL modern era are:

1. '89 49ers

2. '84 49ers

3. '94 49ers
