Going back and looking at the list again to see who was on it, I also liked the Steelers...look at the players Terry, (they bounced me on my head one too many times) Bradshaw was fantastic!!!! Give the ball to Franco Harris, and he would get you yardage.

Stallworth had always been the second gun next to Swann, but on many days he was second to none.

Hmm that's a maybe....

7. 1979 Steelers
It's hard to decide which was the best of the four Steelers teams that won Super Bowls in the 1970s, but we'll take the '79 edition, when Pittsburgh's offense was most potent and the defense was still going strong.

The Steelers were the NFL's best offensive team in 1979: Terry Bradshaw threw for 3,724 yards and 26 TDs, Franco Harris averaged 4.4 yards per carry on his way to 1,186 yards on the ground, and Rocky Bleier and Sidney Thornton combined for 1,019 yards. And Lynn Swann and John Stallworth were formidable threats at WR. The Steelers went 12-4 during the regular season and beat the Rams 31-19 in the Super Bowl.
