10 NFL "DREAM TEAMS" That Some How Didn’t Win The Super Bowl

in order to be remembered as a Dream Team a club actually has to complete the ultimate goal what about the pieces that this team has added this in this the past few days oh Dream Team it has led to a 6 and8 record and now eliminated from playoff [Music] contention these teams folded like pretzels and missed most their chances to be remembered as a special Champion so with that how about we dive into 10 NFL dream teams that failed to win the Super Bowl 2007 New England Patriots I mean who else could we have started this list with in the 2007 offseason the Patriots acquired future Hall of Famer and white out Randy Moss in a blockbuster trade with the Oakland Raiders Bill bich also saw something special in Miami Dolphins wide receiver Wes Welker acquiring The Crafty special team's weapon for two draft picks as if Tom Brady wasn't tough enough to deal with he now had two Superstar pass catchers at his disposal sure enough the Patriots were literally unbeatable for the first 18 games of the 2007 season raing through 50 touchdown passes a single season record Mon's 23 TD receptions were also a single season record New England's 589 points were also a single season record for six whole years before getting smashed by the Denver Broncos the Patriots rolled through the regular season going a perfect 16-0 with very little adversity but after dancing through all of the AFC bracket of the postseason they finally met Eli Manning and the underdog New York Giants in Super Bowl 42 and uh well I think we all know what happened from here the Giants pass rush disrupted Brady and the Patriots record setting offense Eli Manning and David Tyree hooked up for the helmet catch and Pla Co Baris scored the game-winning touchdown with 35 ticks remaining the Giants de forced to turn over on Downs to complete the upset and those Dream Team Patriots went from the greatest team ever assembled to one of the biggest choke jobs in professional sports 1998 Minnesota Vikings after reaching the divisional round in 199 7 the Vikings took their dominance to a historically good level in 1998 in the regular season at least Minnesota signed one of the greatest kickers of all time in Gary Anderson and struck Gold by using the number 21st overall pick on future Hall of Famer and wide receiver Randy Moss and the rest as they say is history the 98 Vikings finished 15-1 and scored 556 points the most ever in a single season until those 07 Patriots and 2013 Denver Broncos broke that Mark Minnesota looked poised to win its first Super Bowl in franchise history behind the UN stoppable offensive Trio of moss fellow Hall of Fame white out Chris Carter and dual threat quarterback Randall Cunningham but Vikings fans know all too well how this one ended Anderson who hadn't missed a kick or extra point all season long missed a field goal that would have iced the NFC championship game against the Atlanta Falcons Atlanta drove down the field for the game tying score then won on a Morton Anderson field goal in overtime an absolutely cruel twist of fate for a historic Vikings team that had Destiny on their side until Anderson's imperfect Miss 2011 Philadelphia Eagles led by 2010 comeback Player of the Year Michael Vic the Eagles won their first NFC East Division Crown in four years after losing to the Green Bay Packers in the Wild Card round the GM howy Roseman decided to throw all of his poker chips into the middle of the table by going all in the Eagles signed Superstar quarterback Nam diaman free agency then bolstered the front seven by signing colen Jenkins and Jason Babin Philadelphia also signed former pro bowler and college QB Legend Vince Young who declared the 2011 Eagles as a dream team and to think this team already had Deshawn Jackson Jeremy mcklin and LeSean McCoy in place having also drafted future Hall of Fame Center Jason Kelce in the sixth round Philly was locked and loaded for a Super Bowl run but uh well the Eagles sort of imploded after a magical 2010 Resurgence from Vic he battled against injuries and struggled to really regain his star-like form a turned out to be one of the worst free agent signings in the league history too so the Eagles lost eight of their first 12 games and only salvaged an 8-8 finish by winning their final four contests yesh so much for being a Dream Team huh Vince 2018 Los Angeles Rams the Rams came out of nowhere in 2017 to captured the NFC West Division Crown ending a 13-year playoff drought as Shawn McVey went on to win Coach of the Year honors in the offseason GM lesne went all in by loading up on an already deep roster that featured Aaron Donald Jared gof Cooper cup and reigning offensive player of the the year Todd Gurley gmless sne traded for New England star wide receiver Brandon Cooks and Kansas City Chiefs all proo quarterback Marcus Peters he also signed five-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle in domican Sue to form a terrorizing interior line duo with Donald unlike most other super teams the 2018 Rams actually lived up to expectations they finished 13 and3 and boasted the NFL's second highest scoring offense averaging 32.9 points per game the Rams reached the Super Bowl after stunning the New Orleans Saints in the NFC title game Al be it thanks to the no let no call but when the Rams looked poised to win it all they were SED by the bill bich and Tom Brady LED New England Patriots by a final score of 13 to3 belich cheek's masterful game plan left goth confused all game long and the Rams couldn't get their explosive ground game going as such it was the Pats who added a sixth and Final Super Bowl of the Brady bellich era to their trophy room fortunately for Rams Fans the team would go on to win Super Bowl 56 3 years later ins Shide their home venue no less but of course the likes of cooks Su Peters and Gurley were long gone by then 2006 San Diego Chargers the Philip Rivers Antonio Gates Chargers are one of the great Coulda should a would a NFL stories not only did they fail to reach a single Super Bowl despite turning out an elite roster year in and year out but the bolts only got to the AFC title game once with the super Duo but among all those great Chargers teams that kept falling short the 06 Squad Takes the Cake as the real dream team that choked the 06 six Chargers had a league leading 11 pro bowlers linian Tomlinson led the League's top scoring offense and won MVP honors after tallying 28 touchdowns and 31 TDS from scrimmage both single season records John marman 17 sacks led the NFL only six teams allowed fewer points than Marty shoten heimer's Group San Diego finished with football's best record at 14-2 needing just two victories at home to reach the Super Bowl their first obstacle was Tom Brady's Patriots who came to Qualcomm Stadium in a divisional round Showdown despite picking up Brady three times however the Chargers fell 24 to 21 and saw their season end in a thud the usually reliable kicker Nate kading missed a game time 54 yard attempt in the waning seconds because Chargers of course this is where that whole charger's going to charger and classic charger things started folks this right here 1968 Baltimore Colts if the Colts had emerged victorious in Super Bowl 3 they would have a case as the greatest NFL team of all time yes even better than the 1972 Miami Dolphins how fitting since Don schula coached both those squads despite losing Star Quarterback Johnny Unitus in the preseason with an injury the Colts offense didn't miss a beat his under study Earl moral won MVP honors after leading Baltimore to a league best 13-1 record the Baltimore finished with the number two scoring offense and the League's best scoring D they had a ridiculous 258 Point differential the Colts crushed the Minnesota Vikings and Cleveland Browns to win the 19 1968 NFL Championship setting up a Super Bowl 3 Clash with Joe neth and the AFL champion of New York Jets namoth memorably guaranteed a Jets win even though the Colts were a 18-point favorite and sure enough namoth made good on his promise and he led the Jets to a shocking 16 to7 Victory cementing himself as a New York Sports icon while also helping the 68 Colts cement themselves as arguably the greatest NFL dream team that failed to win the Super Bowl 2,000 Washington commanders year one of the Dan Snider ownership era did not go so bad in Washington the team finished 10-6 in 1999 and nearly defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the divisional round only losing 14 to 13 after a botch snap on a late go-ahead field goal attempt the future was ultra bright in Washington so Snider opened up his wallet in free agency and let GM Vinnie Sado spend freely Washington signed alltime sax leader Bruce Smith the goat of all Corners in Deion Sanders and three time Pro Bowl safety Mark Carrier adding two more weapons in the secondary led by Superstar Corner Champ Bailey but Smith Prime Time and carrier were all well past their best before dates the latter two each only lasted one season in DC before retiring though he would return to play for the Baltimore Ravens in 2004 Washington fired head coach norf Turner despite sitting at 7- six with three weeks to go they lost two of their final three games ENT interim head coach Terry roisy finishing 8-8 to miss out on the postseason altogether 2008 Dallas Cowboys the Tony Romo and Terell Owens Le Cowboys finished with a 13 and3 record in 2007 that team also sent 13 players to the Pro Bowl a single season record that wouldn't be matched until the Baltimore Ravens hit that feet in 2019 and yet the 2008 Cowboys were even deeper and better at least on paper Dallas was upset by the arch rival Giants in the 2007 divisional round Jerry Jones went all in by signing future Hall of Fame linebacker Zack Thomas and by trading for Tennessee Titans return and Corner Adam Pac-Man Jones and before the 2008 trade deadline the Cowboys further went all in by acquiring Detroit Lion star wide out Roy Williams for a package that included a first round pick so now Tony Romo had a three-headed receiving monster of to Whit and Williams even though Romo missed three games to injury Dallas sat comfortably in a playoff spot at 8 and4 with four games to go but the wheels quickly came off in Big D as Dallas dropped three of its final four games to finish 9 and seven and miss out the postseason alog together that included a humiliating 44 to6 Road loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in a winter go home week 17 contest 2013 Denver Broncos led by 2012 comeback Player of the Year pton Manning the Broncos shocked Everyone by finishing as the afc's top seed with a 13 and3 record but after losing to the eventual Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens in the divisional round John Elway decided that it was time to take a great team and build them into a Dream Team the Broncos signed away longtime Patriot Superstar wide receiver Wes Welker star guard Luis Vasquez Pro Bowers in corner Dominique Rogers karti and the linebacker Shawn Phillips in hulking defensive tackle Terrence knon the Broncos certainly did not disappoint for the most part Manning threw 55 touchdowns and 5,477 passing yards both single season records the Broncos 606 points also smashed the record set by the' 07 Patriots dearius Thomas and Eric Decker both went over 1,000 yds receiving running back noan Moreno had 1,586 yard offense those three along with Welker and tight end Julius Thomas each had double digigit scores the Broncos ran through the AFC and reached Super Bowl 48 where they met the Legion of boomed Seattle Seahawks the Broncos were a slight favorite in that game but they forgot to show up in what was a very shocking 43 to8 blowout loss 1983 Washington commanders the Joe gabes LED Washington Squad won three Super Bowls between 1982 to 1991 but amazingly the real dream team was the 1983 Squad that fell short of football's Ultimate Prize Washington entered 1983 as the defending Super Bowl champs having defeated the Miami Dolphins in the big game but up until Super Bowl 18 this team looked unbeatable and poised for an easy repeat Superstar QB Joe thyman won MVP and offensive player of the year honors Washington's 541 points were for a single season record at the time their 61 takeaways on defense marked the most in the season since the NFL AFL merger not to mention the ridiculous Plus Plus 43 turnover differential and 209 Point differential loaded with Hall of Famers like darl green art monk John reagins and Russ Grim the 83 team looked poised to cement themselves as the greatest NFL team ever that was until Super Bowl 18 gibbs' team napped through the entire contest in what would be an ugly 38 to9 loss to the Los Angeles Raiders who capitalized on three Washington turnovers in order to win the franchise's third Super Bowl at least Washington made up for it by winning two more Super Bowls to finally become a dynasty but hey which other NFL dream
