NFL fans are outraged after ChatGPT ranked the best football teams since 2000, including a surprise No. 1 finish
Artificial intelligence has infuriated fans across the country with rankings of the top ten teams since 2000.
Unsurprisingly, the controversial list has angered fans on social media and has been dubbed “the dumbest take on football I’ve ever seen”.

Top of the list created by ChatGPT for NFL on FOX are the 2007 New England Patriots.
A strong team that included Tom Brady, Randy Moss, Asante Samuel, Wes Welker and Vince Wilfork, among others, Bill Belichick’s team went undefeated to the bitter end.
Eli Manning’s New York Giants eventually prevailed in Super Bowl XLII, preventing only the second perfect season in league history.
The Patriots are succeeded by the 2013 Seattle Seahawks, who left then-sophomore starting quarterback Russell Wilson.
Pete Carroll’s 13-3 Seahawks team clinched the Lombardi Trophy after their third-greatest Super Bowl win of all time (43-8 against Peyton Manning’s Denver Broncos).
Sean Peyton’s 2009 New Orleans Saints team completed the top three.
Led by Drew Brees in his prime, he too beat a Peyton Manning-led team at the Super Bowl when they defeated the Indianapolis Colts 31-17.
New England returned to fourth place thanks to their 14-2 team from 2016, leading Brady to his fifth ring in one of the most notorious comebacks in league history against the Atlanta Falcons at Super Bowl LI.

The legendary 2000 Baltimore Ravens of Ray Lewis and Rod Woodson complete the top five after leading the franchise to a Super Bowl win in just the fifth season since moving from Cleveland.
The second half of the rankings begins with the second team not to win the Super Bowl, the 2004 Philadelphia Eagles.
They are followed by another team not to clear the final hurdle, despite a top-flight Cam Newton at the helm: the 2015 Carolina Panthers.
Packed with talent, the 2002 Tampa Bay Buccaneers ranked eighth on the list thanks to their 12-4 record and a Super Bowl XXXVII ring.
The 11-5 Pittsburgh Steelers of 2005 follow, with players like Ben Roethlisberger and Hines Ward, while the 2019 Kansas City Chiefs, led by Patrick Mahomes, complete the top ten.
In response to the list, an unimpressed fan tweeted: “Woof. Terrible list. The 2005 Steelers won in the most unassuming season of football in recent memory.”
“You and the Seahawks played a Super Bowl that was about dumpsters. They won despite Roethlisberger’s SB stats being:
“9-21, 123 yards, 2 interceptions.”
Another said: “No. Where are the Broncos or Colts led by Peyton Manning? Green Bay has been a constant contender for the Playoffs/NFC Championship for almost 20 years.”
“Also, there’s no Ny Giants that has been led to the Super Bowl three times by Eli Manning and won twice against Brady’s Patriots.”
One added, “I can’t accept that the top team lost the Super Bowl.”
While another simply said, “Absolutely not”
