Patriots, Packers, Giants, Steelers, Cowboys. In that order.
Pats are the most recognizable and the most you hate them or you love them.
The Packers are probably the most unhated team in football (unless your team is in the NFC North).
The Giants are the better team in NYC, and have jumped up because of the number of times they've beaten the dreaded Pats in the Super Bowl.
The Steelers were the one team historically in the AFC(Prior to the Pats) you had to beat if you wanted to play in the Super Bowl. They're history alone puts them on this list.
The Cowboys were America's Team because they were the top banana of the NFC division that contained >50% of football's press coverage.
These are the clear Top 5 runners for "America's Team". Nobody else even comes close.

not until the 70's they were god awful and had no fan base to speak of
lots of historic teams that have won did it dating back to the 30's and 40's. The steelers did their thing in the 70's and didn't really become relevant again until Big Ben outside that lose to dallas in the 90's
