burlow Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 For those that say the Raiders, I see them more as the black sheep than blue blood. They have been good, have history but they have very much been an Al Davis team - not to discredit his accomplishments due to his failures in the later years. I would argue that you need stability, history (success), and respect to be considered blue blood - Raiders really only have the history, they are an iconic franchise but good ole' Al put winning above everything. He moved the team twice, he sued the league, he was a frontier coach and owner - did things other teams wouldn't think of doing (trading his coach for picks), but his mentality more made the Raiders the black sheep of the league. For my list: Green Bay Bears Steelers (I don't like them tho) 49ers Pats Cowboys Giants Steelers and Giants have some of the most stability and best owners in the league.
