  1. 1975 Pittsburgh Steelers

The Steelers won back-to-back Super Bowls in 1974 and ’75, and while their first Super Bowl championship run was basically a strong defensive show that featured Joe Greene & Co. punishing the Minnesota Vikings, the ’75 team got all they could handle from Roger Staubach and the Dallas Cowboys.

The second of those two championship seasons featured a bit more productivity from Terry Bradshaw, Franco Harris and Lynn Swann on offense.

The Cowboys pushed the Steelers to the limit, but Swann’s acrobatic catches over game Cowboys defensive back Mark Washington proved to be the difference in their 21-17 victory in Super Bowl X.
