∙ 13y agoHistorically if you go by the numbers, the Steelers are a better football franchise. However, I'm sure with a question like this you would get a lot of different opinions on which team is better.

∙ 11y agoSome might say steelers because the have 6 super bowls but the fact is the packers had more superbowls until the name was changed from nation championships to super bowls also Green Bay has had way better coaching... Thus stating the Green Bay Packers are better statistical and also franchise wise.
