7. Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Dallas Cowboys
Two of the most historic franchises in the NFL have also represented two of the most dominant dynasties in league history.
For a long time, the Steelers and Cowboys were running the league, and there wasn’t much anyone else could really do about it. The Steelers have had more recent Super Bowl success than the Cowboys, but this is a Super Bowl matchup that would draw a ton of attention.
Of course, there’s always drama surrounding the Cowboys, but this would be the last NFL game – in all likelihood – for quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Seeing whether he would ride off into the sunset would be a huge headline for the league.
8. Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Los Angeles Chargers
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are one of the most underrated teams in the NFL. By no means is their placement on this list indicative of them being a bad team in the NFC, and I think you could even put them as high as 2nd in the conference and I wouldn’t question it.
The Bucs have roster continuity, they’ve made great additions, and they have a good head coach. They could absolutely make it this far.
I’m much more hesitant to project a team like the Chargers because of their horrendous offseason, which seems to get worse by the day, but the Chargers did have the #1 defense in the NFL last year and made very few mistakes offensively.
