This makes me want to create the top 12 all-time rosters in Madden/Tecmo and have a playoff

To me it is a shitty list. Denver @#10 behind the Vikings.

Ok the both lost 4 Super Bowls, but then the Broncos win back to back Super Bowls and go to another w/Manning.

I'm an Eagles fan but they should be at the bottom only ahead of the Lions andFalcons. At least the Jags and Panthers have an excuse they are new.

when Donovan McNabb is the best player in your teams history you know you suck.

At least he took the team to a SB, and that SB was more competitive than the 1st one.

I know they were spawned from the Browns but the Ravens are considered a brand new franchise. It'd be interesting to see where they'd be if they started from that year. They've had a lot of success for such a relatively young franchise, success that can't happen in such a short amount of tie (SB opportunities in wins and losses, division titles, and Hall of Famers)


They basically did.

quote:

* For teams that haven't been around since 1966, the first four point tallies are prorated for 49 seasons.


There's a serious flaw in the system they used. Just because the Ravens won 2 Super Bowls in 19 years, doesn't mean they'd win 5 in 49 years. Plus, you can't just write off that they were a complete team when they moved. They may not have been very good for a few years prior to the move, but the Ravens weren't built from the Expansion Draft like the Texans, Jags, new Browns.

They give Cleveland credit for what the Browns did before they moved, but the Texans don't get credit for what the Oilers did. Either use the whole history of a franchise or don't. They picked and chose who to help out with their prorating. Seattle gets extra division wins and super bowl losses, but no extra wins?

Why have I always had the conception that the bears are a legendary franchise?

Because it's Chicago and intense 1985 nostalgia.

It's odd that they aren't knocked more since the '85 team is considered the GOAT by many but only won once and never got close to another.

They won a ton of titles in the pre-SB era and dominated their division in the '80s. Tons of playoff appearances with non-contending teams.

And they have the third largest city, Solider Field and George Wendt.

I'm just sitting here rehearsing my replies to threads about thug criminals:

"Society is really to blame"

"You are a racist"

"This affects you how exactly?" (my personal favorite)

You spend tons of time obsessing over race, Kafka. Have you considered therapy? Is that allowed in Baton Rouge?
