Without being a homer, what 5 NFL teams do you think have the best legacy?

By legacy I mean a mixture of Super bowl wins or losses, a tradition of winning in the regular season and hall of fame players and coaches. I would have to say in no order the Steelers, the Cowboys, the 49ers, the Packers and the Patriots. I am a Broncos fan and once the Cutler era is over they will take one of those teams places.

First of all, I think you need to consider the pre-Super Bowl era as well. Nobody has been as consistently competitive throughout their history as the Cowboys, so they are the number 1 team regarding legacy. Then I would choose the Bears because of the high number of Hall of Fame players they've had over the years and their consistent success in the playoffs. I would also choose the Colts because they've generally been one of the league's most consistent competitors aside from stinking during the 80s. The Packers are another team I'd choose although people need to realize how hot and cold they've been throughout their history; they were really pretty dreadful in the 50s, 70s, and 80s. I'm almost tempted to pick the Browns next because they were such a terror through the 50s and 60s, and even though they've never made it to a Super Bowl, they've generally been competitive for most of their history. Instead, however, I think I should choose the Steelers. They barely qualify though because for the first half of their 75-year history, they were the league's laughing stock. Nonetheless their amazing performance over the last 35 years makes up for that.

1- cowboys



2-49ers



3-steelers



4-packers



5- patriots if they keep doing what theyve done
I'd have to agree with your top 5, but the Bears would be my 6th team simply because of their teams tradition and the coaches and players who have been with the Bears.
certainly not the cheatriots.
Cowboys, Steelers, 49ers because they have 5 Super Bowls each



Bears and Packers because they have more HOFers and championships (Super Bowls and old NFL championships combined) than anybody else.



The Pats have only 3 HOFers (there will be 5 with Brady and Belichick) and did not really show up until 2001. Before that, their 2 SB appearances were disasters.
Lions



Cardinals



Jaguars



chargers

1. Bears (2nd most NFL Championships (8) and most Hall of Famers in the NFL)



2. Packers (most NFL Championships)



3. 49ers

CHICAGO BEARS



NEW YORK GIANTS



GREEN BAY PACKERS



CLEVELAND BROWNS



DALLAS COWBOYS
1. Cleveland Browns - How about 7 Championships in 10 seasons. They are the only ones to ever do that. They have one of the Greatest QB's ever in Otto Graham (on the 75 Anniversary team) and two of the greates running backs of all-time in Jim Brown and Marion Motley. How about another HOF running back in Leroy Kelley.



2. Green Bay Packers (They don't call it Title Town for nothin.) From Bart Starr to Brett Favre - the Packers have been great - 6 Championships. Plus Don Hutson was perhaps the greatest wide receiver of all-time.



3. Chicago Bears - From the Monsters of the Midway to the 85 Chicago Bears - 6 Championships in 15 years plus possibly the best team ever in 85.



4. San Francisco 49ers - They were unbelievable from 1981 until the mid 1990s. Two HOF quarterbacks, and possibly the best receiver of all-time in Jerry Rice.



5. Dallas Cowboys - 5 Super Bowl wins and a couple of close losses to the Steelers. Roger Staubach was one of the greatest ever. Two HOF running backs (once Smith is eligable).



Teams on the verge - Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots.
