Even today, despite not being the same, when they play you can feel the hatred. They beat each other up like nobody else. Pittsburgh has won 7 of 8, but they’ve all been slow defensive slugfests as opposed to the high flying offense that was on the rise throughout the league up until a season or two ago. Idk if it’s similar for Steelers fans, but I think being a Ravens fan has made me appreciate defense more.

Agreed. They always bring up the longevity of the Bears/Packers but almost that entire history when they meet one of the teams isn't good. Vikings and Packers for the longest time now almost always has been an important game.
If you're going to put the Chiefs/Bills from 2020-2023 as an honorary mention, you should've put the Patriots and Ravens as one as well from 2007-2014. Those clashes, there was NO LOVE at all. Brady, Moss, Welker, Gronk, Edelman vs Suggs, Reed, Lewis, Pollard, etc. Sheesh
And this is the reason why even after the division realignment in 2002, Dallas remains a part of the NFC East, even though it's "geographically out of place".
In the 1998 NFL draft, Indianapolis opted to pick Peyton Manning over Ryan Leaf with the first overall pick (a decision that hindsight proved to be the right one), while two years later New England scored the ultimate steal when they chose Tom Brady with pick number 199.

I think Steelers-Ravens and 49ers-Seahawks are my favorite rivalries in the NFL because they seem to be the hardest hitting teams with genuine hatred for each other.
Underrated rivalry for sure, when it was good. Unfortunately, not looking too hopeful for a playoff meeting this decade because the Steelers are enamored with Mike Tomlin's mediocrity and the Broncos have done little right since Super Bowl 50.

I like all these rivalries but I dont think you can say the 80s-90s Giants and 49ers rivalry can all of sudden include a game from 2011 after not meeting the playoffs for almost 20 years
Great idea spotlighting rivalries close to the start of the 2024 season. 49ers/Cowboys from 1992 to 1994, and Ravens/Steelers from 2008 to 2012 are my two favorites.
The problem is that it was too short. Once Harbaugh left after 2014 the 49ers sucked until 2019. But yeah I remember in 2013 NFC Championship the local SF radio stations weren’t playing any Nirvana or Pearl Jam for a week leading up to the game out of spite for Seattle. When it gets that petty it’s good
When ben, drew, peyton, tom, favre, romo, vick, stafford, and more played in the same seasons. We will probably not experience a QB renaissance like that ever again
We got Mahomes now, but outside of him it's pretty much just Allen on a consistent basis and that's it. Burrow always gets hurt, Lamar always gets hurt and also chokes, Hurts regressed, Dak chokes, Herbert is overrated, so is Lawrence, and Cousins is a stat padder. There's some hope with Purdy, Love, and Stroud though, I will admit.

Steelers vs Cowboys is the #1. Most of their 34 all time series are close games, and ever since they meet only once every 4 years (since 2004), every single one of the 6 meetings have been just crazy.
@@starfire3949 Indeed. Packs - Vikes has so many spoiled games and playoff berths because of them. And it doesn't seem to matter if one or the other is good or not -- there's always seemingly that nagging feeling that one team or the other will be handed a loss when they should have won.
Not mentioned in Giants vs Niners is the 1993 Divisional Playoff slaughter at the Stick. The Niners ran in six touchdowns, five of them by Ricky Watters, picked off Phil Simms twice, and won 44-3
As a Tar-Heels fan the Lawrence Taylor really was unstoppable at the LB position but Ronnie Lott with the 49ers is absolutely undeniable at the Safetie position he was the definition of HitStick too! 6:16

Eagles - Steelers, Giants- Jets, Ravens - Redskins, Rams - Chargers, Bucs - Dolphins is it dumb for these teams not to be in the same conference? Do you know how old the NFL is?
Because theyre in different conferences
@@elfofcouragethat's no excuse when conference realignment is a thing bro
Rest In Piece to Jacoby Jones #12 he certainly was electrifying of a player not just with Texans but he won a Super Bowl Ring 2012 vs 49ers with a huge 109 yards off the Kick Return Touchdown to seal the deal!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🖤💜🖤💜 28:02
Ben Roethlisberger has owned not just Ravens but both Ohio teams in Cincinnati & Cleveland too! 26:48
Steelers vs Ravens games always hit different 🔥
Rest In Piece to Marty Schottenheimer!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 14:46
Ravens vs Patriots post 2007 anyone 👀👀👀👀
Pats owned the Colts during their “rivalry” lol
Packers cowboys and packers niners being on here instead of packers vikings is insane
The entire NFC East for #1 was a fantastic choice. The best division in Pro Football 💪.
War eagle 🦅 Auburn University represent
It's so nice kicking Dalla's, New York's, and Washington's asses.
Division rivals will always be a good rivalry but in conference rivals, those are the ones that are the best to watch those ones need to be talked about more
Lions vs Refs. I had to throw that meme in there
Some people will never know. Us lions fans will never forget nor forgive. There are so many moments I can name off the top of my head
Seahawks vs. Refs in Super Bowl 40.😅
Always wild to me that even at the Lions lowest, the refs will always find a way to screw them over
Great video!!!!🏈🏈🏈🏈
GB/CHI at #2? The Bears have been such a pushover they lost the rivalry for both teams
Yea to bad that's over now good luck with Jordan Love
As an Eagles's fan I can also see them at #2. When I went to Chicago to see my Eagles play the Bears all the Bear fans were doing was chanting F*ck Green Bay.
Spot On. I 100% agree with this list.
NFC BEAST!!! still the best division in history without question. All amazing rivalaries and ao much hate between the fans..its the best!!
Wrong!
Steelers vs Cowboys is the #1. Most of their 34 all time series are close games, and ever since they meet only once every 4 years (since 2004), every single one of the 6 meetings have been just crazy.
The Giants vs. Redskins rivalry is the least interesting of any to me.
The iron bowl or Ohio st Michigan of the NFL type of fan intensity which is rare these days as intense as SEC football
Good historic NFL video here. Nothing like a good old rivalry. 🏈🔥
Not even an honorable mention for Vikings - Packers? They included Saints - Falcons for god's sake...
Packers - Vikings is the true NFC North rivalry. Packers vs Bears is just a yearly beat down for Chicago.
@@barryallen3225 lol sure kid stick to comics
@@barryallen3225 Exactly! I understand that Packers - Bears is an older rivalry, but it hasn't had much meaning for decades.
@@starfire3949 Indeed. Packs - Vikes has so many spoiled games and playoff berths because of them. And it doesn't seem to matter if one or the other is good or not -- there's always seemingly that nagging feeling that one team or the other will be handed a loss when they should have won.
Cowboys and 49ers in #5. Thinking it would be higher
As a Pats fan, THANKS for the Dynasty Jets! 😂
War eagle 🦅 Auburn University represent like iron bowl rivalrys the most intense rivalry in college football despite Michigan Ohio st
@@eric3298 And Arkansas now has three major rivalries(The Southwest Classic, The Boot Bowl, and the Battle Line Bowl).
Green Bay and Bears may be the NFL's oldest rivalry but a rivalry the pre dates it is Michigan vs OSU.
Kudos for putting Steelers Ravens in the top 3
it should be 1
@@MMMHOTCHEEZE It's not as old as certain rivalries which is why I wouldn't put it at 1, but it's as close to perfect as it can be in my opinion.
Texas vs Titans is underrated
You could have done the entire AFC North. There's no love lost among those four teams either.
Cleveland has to actually accomplish something of worth first in order to be considered.
@@jaxonwoods8181 do the 1950s count
I mean, I guess, sure XD. The Ravens and Bengals didn't even exist and the NY Giants were in the division at the time, but sure.
Redskins (Commanders)/Cowboys rivalry is unmatched 💯💯
I haven’t even made it 30 seconds into the video but Steelers vs Ravens better be Number 1
@jtb3333
Steelers vs Ravens is number 3, the entire NFC East is number one.
Great but not old enough to be no 1
Not mentioned in Giants vs Niners is the 1993 Divisional Playoff slaughter at the Stick. The Niners ran in six touchdowns, five of them by Ricky Watters, picked off Phil Simms twice, and won 44-3
All time record entering 2024 is 22-21 Niners.
Look, the Bears & Packers have the oldest rivalry BUT it's the Vikings that have earned the Packers' hate time and time again.
Exactly. The bears and packers aren't competitive at all, that stat was crazy packers are 50-15? how is that a rivalry?
@@Beraninthe record is 107 - 95 - 6; Packers up. But those 40 wins come within 30 years. Before Favre and Rodger’s it was like 90 - 50
Nothing could make me, as a Packer fan, hate the Vikings more than I hate the Bears
@@TheCube2424FTP! 🐻⬇️
Vikings are the red headed step child. Only the purple losers think it’s an actual rivalry
As a Tar-Heels fan the Lawrence Taylor really was unstoppable at the LB position but Ronnie Lott with the 49ers is absolutely undeniable at the Safetie position he was the definition of HitStick too! 6:16
Everyone knows LT is the best
Head to head it’s Brady 11 Manning 6. Super Bowl wins it’s Brady 7 Manning 2. Manning was more of a bug on Brady’s windshield than a rival.
Playoff meetings it was Manning 3 Brady 2
You beat me to it.
I feel like you guys could do an entire separate video on the curse of the terrible towel; titans stomped it and lost out including first round of playoffs as 1 seed, bengals tj housh wiping his cleats and then carson palmer tearing his acl and lost first round of playoffs, jaguars last year (2023) mocked the towel and proceeded to go 3-6 and lose first round of playoffs but i know theres more. Great vid
Real rivalries exist for decades. Most of these rivalries only were there for a couple years.
Disagree. Most of these rivalries span a good long while. Even Steelers-Ravens is now over two decades old.
@robbymangel2421 old people make me sick. Our generation better.
Great video! Nice job, guys!!! #flyeaglesfly 🦅
What no Rams vs Niners, or Rams vs Seahawks, or Rams vs Cowboys? This list is crap.
Niners Seahawks too
We'll see you (*&%@$7s in the playoffs !!!! 😉
It’s crazy to be so in love with the old Raiders while being born in the 2000s that’s how bad we’ve been my entire life!
No way steelers ravens is not 1st. It was known every game they played someone left on a stretcher or an crazy injury. 25:57 he said it best😂😂
The iron bowl or Ohio st Michigan of the NFL
The ravens have only been around since the 90s. Not nearly enough time to be #1
RAMS Cowboys should have been included.
