The Redskins of the 1980's: Dynasty?

[SouperMeister]

Bottom line, the Niners were the team of the 80's, winning Super Bowls in '81, '84, '88, and '89. The Skins were arguably the 2nd best team of the decade with Super Bowl wins in '82 and '87, a Super Bowl loss in '83, and an NFC Championship Game loss in '86. You can't be considered a dynasty if you weren't even the best team of the era.

Agreed. 49ers had some GREAT teams in the 80's. Their 88 team kinda struggled but that 84 team might have been their best. Everyone always talks about their offenses but they had some really outstanding defenses. Totally shut down Marino in that 84 SB.
