First, you can't make up your own definition of dynasty. Based on a definition of not winning a championship every year means no dynasty, then the NFL has never had a dynasty, neither has hockey. The only teams to qualify would be the Yankees and the Celtics.
A dynasty in the NFL would have to any team that has won more than 2 Superbowls withion a 5-7 year period and/or has consistently played for the Championship more than 3 or 4 times in the same period.
To set the record straight, The New England Patriots finished with 10 wins or more for the 11th straight year. The New England Patriots are playing in the post season for the 11th time in the last
13 years. The Patriots won their 10th division titole in the last 12 years. That's dominance and that's a dynasty.......they may not have won the Super Bowl since 2004 but they have been in the game twice since 2004. Other than the NY Giants, who else has played in the Superbowl twice than the Pats and Giants since 2004.
Here's a fact.....the New England Patriots in 2013-14 are the second youngest team in the NFL, only the Packers are younger. The Patriots are playing in the AFC Championship for the 8th time since 2001. The Patriots have 9 starters on the IR and have 7 rookies playing weekly. They're playing with second stringers and fill-ins and they're still kicking ass every week. They get everyone back next season and all of their rookies have playoff experience. 19-0 Next year........
The Steelers have been in 3 in that span. They won it in 2005 (21-10 over the Seahawks), won it in 2008 (27-23 over the Cardinals) and lost in 2010 (31-25 vs the Packers). Question asked, question answered. You're welcome!
