If the Panthers win the Super Bowl...

[Everlong]

...where would they rank among the greatest championship teams of all time?

It feels like nobody's really given them their due this year, probably because they're not from a glamorous market. But they'd be only the second team to go 15-1 and win the Super Bowl (after the 1985 Chicago Bears). Only the perfect 1972 Dolphins have finished with a better record. They have, I believe, the #1 ranked offense and #6 ranked defense. They obliterated the Cardinals and basically stopped trying against the Seahawks in the 2nd half.

Usually the three teams people mention as the greatest in teh Super Bowl era are those 85 bears, 72 Dolphins and the 89 49ers, with some people also giving props to the 2004 Patriots, 1996 Packers and 2001 Rams. But if these Panthers win, they've got to jump toward the top section of the list, right?

I really do hate these questions because it's really hard to fully comprehend where a team lands in the moment.
