Our Dynasty Rankings continue, appropriately, with Part II! The gimmick behind this series is the “60 best runs in NFL history,” but that’s not entirely true. There are good teams that failed to hit the 10 dynasty point cutoff, a Wild Card berth or two away from getting included on this list. You would take some of those teams over the bottom teams on our countdown, but the line has to be drawn somewhere, and pitches for “The Best 1,500 teams in NFL History” have so far fallen on deaf ears.

Welcome to our rankings of every dynasty, near-dynasty, and coulda-been and shoulda-been dynasty in the history of the NFL. Over this series of articles, we’re going to run down every team to ever have a sustained run of success, compare them with their peers, and find out who comes out on top. If you haven’t yet, you should check out our methodology for defining a dynasty.

They didn’t just win the championship, after all – they stopped the Kansas City Chiefs from becoming the first team to win three Super Bowls in a row. Before the game, articles were written claiming that a win in Super Bowl LIX would crown the Chiefs as the greatest dynasty in NFL history, as well as counter-arguments that no, no it would not.

The Kyle Shanahan dynasty has been dethroned!Our annual look at YAC+ – yards after catch above replacement – traditionally begins with us making some sort of joke about this being our annual love letter to Shanahan and the 49ers. Shanahan and his progeny have dominated this stat for nearly an entire decade.

Last week, we had our annual look at passing plus-minus. But plus-minus, and completion above expectation and all those related stats, aren’t just on the quarterback! Years of painstaking research and in-depth analysis indicate that for a pass to completed, someone must be there to catch it. Receiving plus-minus is a stat we annually track to help provide context to catch rate, seeing how many more catches a player has than an average receiver would have in the same situations.
