Most '90's teams would be the All-Decade teams of the 60's and 70's.
During the 1990's, training and, um, let's say nutrition, were dramatically more advanced than in the past.
In terms of talent, the All-Decade teams of the 70's might be better than the '90's; in terms of size, speed, and strength, they would be overpowered.

I haven't seen a thread for teh 60s...is there one or an oversight...as none was mentioned...
70s, 80s and 90s were just voted on and that is why there are articles on it the team of the 60's was voted on years ago so I guess that is why...I didn't want to leave them out of this poll though.

Every year/decade players are bigger, faster and stronger than players from previous times, so the latest decade team would win. Well, early 90s team wouldn't beat anybody, but in general, the newer teams would win.
The mid 70's team was unbelievably good - I mean they were stacked at every position, could run over anybody, had a young Grogan, All world tight End - Russ Francis, Stingley, Vataha, Hannah,Gray blocking for Sam Bam Cunningham & Andy Johnson, Stingley was still catching balls and was paired with Randy Vataha. Defensively, Julius Adams in his prime, Sugar Bear Ray Hamilton, Tony McGee on the line, awesome LB's Steve Nelson & Steve Zabel, Steve King and Sam Hunt with DB's Mike Haynes & Tim Fox. Kickers John Smith & Mike Patrick were pretty damn good too.
If Sullivan had left Fairbanks alone, that team would have overcome the Oakland ridiculous call and gone on to win a few superbowls.

i think we need to look at the teams in the era they played in, not comparing them to future when advances are made....that is like saying the Spartans sucked as fighters because they wouldn't be able to defeat one guy in 2009 with a machine gun.

I agree. From what I have read and heard, the 70s team would be the best.
