How can there be a debate about this?
The '85 Bears were the greatest, most inspirational football team of all-time, hands down, end of discussion.
Inspirational? They won one Super Bowl.
49ers won five...count them five...1-2-3-4-5 Baby!!!!
Montana - Greatest QB of all time
Young - in the top 15
Rice - Greatest WR of all time.
Now discussion ended 🙄

As a Bills fan, I can't wait to see him get chewed out by Parcells on the sidelines again.

The only thing William "The Refrigerator" Perry inspired me to do was to go on a diet....kind of 😲

Yes...I'm not thrilled about Bledsoe, at all. But like I said, the Cowboys haven't been great since 1995.
My other team (KC Chiefs) haven't done well for years, either. Maybe I need a new team to watch. Although, you can't deny the RB ability of Priest Holmes. #1 in the NFL, baby! Woo!

Well even my thread has become a sort of puppet for the Americans just like the Blair Government.
Take it easy, scotchjack, just accept the fact that your sport of choice doesn't evoke such gripping conversation, unlike American Football.
Originally posted by darvlayAny sport that calls itself "football" , but has fans that are feared far more than the players is a wussy sport not worthy of the name . That's why we call it soccer , and why it's only acceptable for 8 year old girls to play it . My son called soccer players "field fairys" when he was 9 . Even kids understand that here .

As for my pick - I'm going retro : 70's Steelers . Bradshaw , Swan , Lambert , Ham , Franco , the only team from that bygone era tough enough and good enough to compete today .
