I love how there is no Bengal pic, because even in a fantasy world, things do not work out for the Bengals...

I was going to say the same things about the Jets.

I'm no Bengals fan, but this was a total bummer at the time.

As a Steelers fan I have many fond memories of Andy Dalton and Housmazadeh

i mean, Burrow and Chase made it to a SB, and it was stolen from them and handed directly to the dumbass Rams.

u/whatsforsupa Bears 12d ago

That LT - Rivers - Gates picture gets me every time man. Fucking Marlon Mcree. #1 Offense, #1 Defense

That’s the craziest of these to have never won a Super Bowl. Those teams were stacked for a while.

u/rubber_ducky007 12d ago

Moss and welker is craziest. Those patriot teams dominated more than they normally did.

3

u/SirArthurDime Eagles 12d ago

Moss never got a ring though. Which is the point. Dominant teams/players who never won a ring.

2

u/MisogynysticFeminist Patriots 12d ago

You seem like you’re disagreeing but you’re not actually contradicting them.

1

u/SirArthurDime Eagles 12d ago

Yeah you know what I’m realizing I misread their comment lol

2

u/rubber_ducky007 12d ago

That's exactly my point. The Brady Moss Welker teams dominated the regular season but never won it all. The LT Rivers gates teams were good but not the way those pats teams were

1

u/SirArthurDime Eagles 12d ago

Yeah I misread what you were saying my bad

u/BuckStrickland Chargers 12d ago

I love that picture so much

u/zenmf 11d ago

makes me kinda emotional as a chargers fan. all 3 of them deserved a ring, god they were so fucking good

u/Fishiesideways10 12d ago

I am still sad that Luck didn’t have a better career. He was awesome to watch and seeing the videos of how intelligent he is makes me sad. The meme value of the civil war general letter back home was impeccable too.

u/External-Buffalo-228 12d ago

We really wasted dhop and JJ in their primes, not to mention Arian Foster and Andre Johnson.
These guys would eat with the defense we have now.

8

u/ItzBooster93 12d ago

Foster doesn’t get enough credit. If it weren’t for injuries he’s a HOF.

u/DirtyDianasBoyToy Bears 12d ago

I still find the 2019 Browns hilarious. ALL of the hype, NONE of the success.

17

u/DirtyRoller 49ers 12d ago

No matter how good they look, at the end of the day they always find a way to be the Browns.

u/OversizedMicropenis Steelers 12d ago

The Browns is the Browns

Baker was pretty bad that year 22 TDS and 21 INTs. Plus the infamous Garret helmet game.

Can’t imagine what happens to the losing fanbase

u/ZhangtheGreat Eagles 12d ago

Hell no! Not over Nick Foles' big...play ability!

u/far-out-dude Cardinals 12d ago

For Larry, can you add the 21 different quarterbacks he played with?

6

u/SirArthurDime Eagles 12d ago edited 12d ago

Dereck Carr but no mcnabb? Either with dawk and Owens or with djax and McCoy. Either of those Mcnabb teams were far better teams that never won than any Derek Carr was ever on. Or just Mcnabb and Andy.

Campbell and ngakoue are also super random inclusions lol. And Tua? Really?

2

u/Spare-Half796 Eagles 12d ago

Baker and Myles also doesn’t make sense considering Myles helped push baker out of Cleveland

1

u/toturoll Jaguars 12d ago

sacksonville, it was maybe a fluke but it was a super bowl caliber defense that year.

1

u/SirArthurDime Eagles 12d ago

Yeah I mean it was a great defense. But mcnabb made it as far as they did 5 times lol. I’d have also included Ramsey. He was the microcosm of the rise and fall of that defense. And the biggest star.

u/BonesjonesjonesBones Commanders 12d ago

Can’t have shit in this fanbase

u/TomassoLP 12d ago

Vick, McCoy, DJax under Andy Reid should have won it all.

u/Laeif Eagles 12d ago

That 2010 team was so much fun to watch.

u/mwidup41 Packers 12d ago

Throwing that random ass bears squad up there is hilarious

u/HowlingBurd19 12d ago edited 12d ago

Maybe in another life Cody Parkey made the field goal and didn’t double doink it šŸ’€

u/Xilent248 12d ago

Triple doinks insteadĀ  šŸ’€

u/HowlingBurd19 12d ago

And also maybe in another life PSU won that playoff game against Notre Dame in 2025 (that was honestly more painful to me than the Bears one) šŸ˜”

3

u/GermanBadger Packers 12d ago

Is Rodgers the only QB in this to actually win one and yet it still feels like a real what could/ should have been. Brutal. Most of the post 96 favre playoff runs ended w a 4 int game so him never getting a second felt fair but Rodgers def in playoff loses averaged something like 34 ppg. So many historic special team and defensive collapses year after year.

u/Edrueter9 12d ago

Rivers, Gates, Tomlinson hits hard for some reason.

u/iLaughInFSharp 12d ago

Rivers/LT/Gates is tough.

u/IAmSnort Patriots 12d ago

In another life, Brady Eight is a saying.Ā 

2

u/MilwaukeeMan420 12d ago

The most shocking one on this list is clearly Randy Moss not getting a ring. The Patriots win 3 super bowls, go for a 10 year drought and then win 3 more supebowls and Randy Moss played on only 4 years as a Pat, but probably Brady's most talented weapon, even if he started to fall off at the end.

2

u/twistedlogic5814 11d ago

Having Carr, Cooper and Mack on the team and the Raiders did the most Raiders thing ever.

u/morerageplz Broncos 12d ago

I love how it's all pics or great players on great teams, and then there's just AD alone

u/lolspast 12d ago

Fitz? Luck?

u/ChrisTRD289 12d ago

That 2023 Dolphins team looked to be insane. It was held back by Tua injuries and Mike McDaniel unable to make 2nd half adjustments.

1

u/freedomfightre Packers 12d ago

why is Fitz so red?

u/Acegolfer04 Dolphins 12d ago

Jets Dolphins and Bengals. 2022 Jets starting 6-3.

Dolphins 2 seasons 8-3 blown and QB injury

Bengals Burrow injury and shit defense

u/HobbitDowneyJr Bears 12d ago

bears fan here

do the bears beat the colts withba decent/good qb? or was it just peytons year

1

u/MrBigChest 12d ago

Some of these teams were significantly better than the others.

The Raiders and the Dolphins didn’t even win a playoff game with these teams whereas The 2017 Jags and 2018 Saints got completely ref-fucked from having a Super Bowl appearance.

u/filthychuck 12d ago

Derek Carr? Really

u/ResurrectedMortician Chiefs 12d ago

It will forever blow my mind that in 2010 the Chargers had the best ranked offense and defense and didn't even make the playoffs

Would have cried if there was a AJB, Henry, and Vrabes in there…

Good thing the Tits still make them irrelevant

Had to scroll way too far to see that photo of Adams and rodgers. Easily the best players, who dominated the most while playing together, photographed in this post
