We are not having this back and forth. I started my opinion and I stand by it. Agree, disagree, I don't care. 3 years is a small sample size on the history of Super Bowl football, so you can think your comments matter if you want to but they don't really bear any weight when looking at the entire history of Super Bowl era of professional football.
Lol okay boomer. It may not have happened in the 60s and 70s hey day of American football that I keep hearing about around here, but it's been kind of common ever since, especially in the past 20 years...

1981 Bengals, 1981 49ers, 1986 Broncos, 1988 Bengals, 1994 Chargers, 1996 Patriots, 1998 Falcons, 1999 Titans, 1999 Rams, 2000 Ravens, 2001 Patriots, 2003 Panthers, 2008 Cardinals, 2009 Saints, 2010 Steelers, 2011 Giants, 2016 Falcons, 2017 Eagles, 2019-2020 49ers.

It's the Cowboys and its easy.

This team underachieved so hard last year it's really hard to grasp.

There have been 108 teams to play in the Super Bowl if we count Super Bowl I which was not called the Super Bowl at the time. You only named less than 5% of them which exactly makes my case, it's a rare and unlikely prospect. Ok, youngster? lol

Chargers. Drew brees signs with the chargers to end his career.

chargers have talent on both sides of the ball.

I was also thinking Chargers. Something happens at the QB position, maybe Brady... and they have the team for it

Cant see any team making the superbowl that didnt make the playoffs but the 9ers came out of nowhere this year.

I agree. Depending on what Brady and New England do, Pittsburgh might have a chance with Ben back in the AFC. Realistically they have to go through Baltimore and KC, so not a great pick.

As much as I'd like to think Dallas has a plan and the means to get there, it looks more like the Rams in the NFC. But with the 49ers and Seattle in the same division, that's not a good option.

Betting the house is just not a good idea in either case.

Why not? Just happened, Philly missed the playoffs in 2016 and won the super bowl in 2017. That's 2 just in the last 4 years. Atl missed the playoffs in 15, lost to the Pats in the super bowl in 16.

Its another one of those "Too Soon" polls. Nobody knows what any team will look like until about August/September.
