Which team do you consider the best of each decade?

I don't get the knock on 91 Skins for beating Atlanta and Detroit in the playoffs. 2 Legit 2 Quit Falcons with Deion and Barry Sanders(who many call the GOAT RB, something I disagree with but still) with his best team the 12-4 Lions. Was that really that much weaker of a playoff route than the other Champions of the 90's?
92 Cowboys- beating a 92 Eagles team coached by Rich Kotite(will give them props for the SF win in Candlestick)
93 Cowboys- beating baby Packer team that was just getting started, and probably the weakest SF team of the decade that I would put 91 Lions over
94 49ers- beat the 94 Bears, a team worthy of the "Worst 1 and done playoff teams" thread(will give them props for knocking off Cowboys in NFCCG)
95 Cowboys- beat another weaker Eagles squad, and 11-5 Packer team that I see being no better than 91 Lions
96 Packers- Beat a beat up/aging 49ers and 2 year old expansion Panthers(another 90's NFCCG loser that I would put the 91 Lions over)
97 Broncos- Jaguars, Chiefs, Steelers AFC teams none of which had momentum of 91 Lions or Falcons imo
98 Broncos- beat a beat up Dolphins team missing both starting DE's then the Jets in AFCCG
99 Rams- beat a Vikings team that probably shouldn't have even made the playoffs and a Buccs team with Sean King at QB that wouldn't have made it out of WC round in previous NFC seasons, neither opponent I would put on level of 91 Falcons or Lions.
I would also argue that Washington beat a 91 Bills squad that was sharper and better than any of those team's Super Bowl opponents except for the 97 Broncos beating Green Bay.
