'76 Oakland or '05 Colts

Both of those teams were badass.

 

'05 Colts.... cause that just makes the playoff win over the them even more legendary! Wooo!!!

 

Since 2000,likely the 2004 pats

 

The 2005 Colts beat the pants off the Steelers in that 2005 Regular season meeting. Think it was a SNF or MNF contest.
Peyton threw a long one to Marvin Harrison right off the get go for a long TD.

Going into that playoff game. I had really low expectations that we could beat them.

Luckily for us, the Steelers had been fighting for their lives for weeks, and the Colts were really rusty, they had almost everything in hand with 2-3 weeks left in the regular season.

What a game of ups and downs, it really shouldn't have come down to what it did.

Polamalu picked off Manning, did a 2.5-barrel roll got up had his knee hit the ball and they called in incomplete. Wrong call.
Joey Porter was so mad, thought refs were handing it to the Colts, sacks Manning back to back sacks, looks like its all over.
Guy was totally robbed of his hero moment.
Bettis fumbles Ben Saves the TD with the tackle. Ben becomes the Hero for the tackle.
Byrant McFadden comes up big to break up a TD in the Endzone toward Reggie Wayne ( this play is very over looked in the game)
Vanderjagt misses the FG.

Steelers won, then eventually won the Super Bowl.

But, if you saw the 05 regular season matchup, you would of given the Steelers an almost zero possibility of winning it in that playoff matchup.

 

Porter wasn't the only one mad on that Troy P call, My ole lady was telling me to calm the f**k down. LoL

 

76 Oakland

 

Tebow and the Broncos.

 

None of them were good. We should never have lost a game!!

Kidding aside.
Last season that Eagles team was one of the best on both sides of the LOS I've ever watched. True, we were 'in' that game until the Najee fumble, but I think that was one of the better teams all around I've ever watched.


I think the Tom Brady Patriots were so good for so long that we forget just how dominant they could be. Especially when they listen in to our play calls or shut off our comms completely during parts of games. They were pretty awesome.

'95 Cowboys were the best team we should have beaten in the playoffs ever. We were hammering them and I believe we had their number that game. I still believe that.

 

Ryan Mundy cost that game

 

I said the 2004 pats but the 2024 eagles deserve also a big mention!

The 3 best super bowl winning team since 2000 are for me 2004 pats,2013 seahawks and 2024 eagles in no order

I agree too for the 1995 cowboys.The steelers were by far the better team in the second half outside of 2 play....
