Our Top 5 Super Bowl Teams Ever: Where Do the Eagles Stand?
Saquon Barkley has only spent one season with the Philadelphia Eagles, yet he has quickly won over the hearts of the team’s supporters thanks to his remarkable performance during the 2024 campaign.
Guiding Philadelphia's attack with a franchise-record 2,005 rushing yards, Barkley aided the Eagles as they rolled through the 2024 schedule on their way to achieving the most commanding playoff run in league annals.
Philly's playoff journey to win the Super Bowl last year was so impressive that Barkley asserted the team might be among the best in NFL history. "... top-five," he stated.
Over the years, numerous dominating Super Bowl teams have emerged. Many dynasties have been established with those squads.
Is Barkley correct about this? It’s now time for our analysis... examining whether the seasoned running back can justify calling the 2024 Eagles one of the greatest teams ever by establishing our own rankings. ...
Honorable Mention: 1992 Dallas Cowboys, 2014 New England Patriots, 1998 Denver Broncos
The three squads merit their spot in history as Super Bowl-winning teams that ruled the league during both the regular season and the postseason. However, they narrowly fall short of securing a position among the top five today.
5. 2024 Eagles
Following Week 5, it appeared as though nobody could obstruct the Eagles' progress on both offense and defense. Last season, they achieved 18 victories, which made them only the fourth team ever to accomplish this feat, and the third to secure a victory along with those stats.
They accumulated the highest total points in both the NFC Championship Game and the Super Bowl in league annals, underscoring the extraordinary nature of this team’s performance throughout the previous season.
4. 1972 Dolphins
Miami experienced less defeat compared to the Super Bowl squads of the Eagles and Cowboys, yet the Dolphins remain the sole franchise to complete an entire season unbeaten while claiming a championship. This singular achievement ensures their place on this list.
3. 1984 49ers
Similar to the Eagles, the San Francisco 49ers dominated the postseason in 1984, leading them to an overwhelming victory against the Miami Dolphins in the Super Bowl. This period could be considered the peak of the Bill Walsh-Joe Montana era, as they claimed just their second championship during this reign. Despite being remembered as one of football’s most illustrious eras, the team from 1984 stands out even among these greats as the finest representation of their dominance.
2. 1985 Bears
No team has ever dominated a single season in the NFL like the '85 Bears did. Their defense was legendary and swept through the competition during both the regular season and the Super Bowl.
1. 1978 Steelers
Unlike several squads featured here, the Steelers’ journey to victory in the 1978 Super Bowl involved crushing some of the most formidable teams from that time period. Although they fell just short against the Bears, 49ers, and Eagles, this roster stands out even among the elite dynasties in sports history and rightfully claims the title of the premier team ever in the league.
