The Minnesota Vikings came in at number eleven in a ranking by Fansided of all 32 NFL teams in terms of all-time greatness -- taking into account each franchises entire history up through the end of the Super Bowl just a week ago. 'You know who' came in at number one.
History matters on this list, because the ranking took into account things like Super Bowl appearances and wins, playoff appearances, number of Hall of Fame inductees, and individual player awards like MVP. Newer teams just didn't have the track record to rack up many points. The conclusion? (And it pains me to type this.) The Green Bay Packers are the All-Time Greatest team in the NFL. The Houston Texans finished last. Here's the complete list:
- Green Bay Packers
