I personally think that even without the SB win the 2007 team is a top-5 if not top-3 team of all time. How many 18-1 teams have there been in NFL history? Exactly one as no other team ever went 16-0 and none of the 15-1 teams in NFL history have won the SB.Exactly the point of my post ... We beat everyone's fav ...
Dallas, Indy, SDC, Phila, Pitt were legit.
Brutal schedule from start to finish. SDC, Cinci, Dallas, Dallas, Colts, Phila, Balt, Pitt and a dog fight with NYG to end the regular season.
And as already said by you and others, their schedule was brutal and they not only won all the games, but dominated the majority of them:
They beat the 11-5 Chargers who made it to the AFCCG 38-14 at home
They beat the 10-6 Browns 34-17 at home
They beat the 13-3 Cowboys who are 5-0 at the time 48-27 at Texas Stadium
They beat the 9-7 Redskins 52-7 at home
They beat the 13-3 Colts who were 7-0 at the time 24-20 at the RCA Dome
They beat the 10-6 Steelers who were 9-3 at the time 34-13 at home
They beat the 10-6 Giants 38-35 in New York
This isn't the cupcake schedule the 72 Dolphins faced.
