5 Greatest Defenses In NFL History

[infinitedepression]

The 02 Bucs is criminally never talked about fr. That defense was so loaded with talent it’s insane.

[cigarcatfromwayback...lets]

The 2000 Ravens defense only allowing an average of 2.6 yards a carry for the WHOLE DAMN SEASON is absolutely incredible 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

The Ravens having 4 shutouts in one season is crazy AF

“Defense wins championships” unless your the vikings

[bigkev]

*77 Falcons with the "Gritz Blitz". Gave up 9.3 points per game.*

You guys have to bring back the guy with the deep voice, he was one of the reasons I subbed ngl

[Aloharayray]

2015 Broncos 🙌🏽
Broncos country where y’all at?!👑

Where are the 02 Bucs?

First team since 85 bears to lead in total defense, points allowed, and INTs

The 2002 Bucs allowed 10 passing TDs while getting 31 INT. With 43 sacks

They were insane and right up there with 85 bears

They held opposing QBs to a 48.4 Quarterbaack rating. And that's not a typo

2 shutouts and held another 5 teams under 10 points

5. 2002 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 4. 2013 Seattle Seahawks 3. 2000 Baltimore Ravens 2. 1976 Pittsburgh Steelers 1. 1985 Chicago Bears

[slifer]

2002 Tampa Bucs Defense didn't get on this list. That's mind blowing since the stats between them and the 2000 Ravens Defense are so close.

[carloschambliss]

I totally AGREE WITH I have to ADD the 2002 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 1991 Philadelphia Eagles, and 1977 Dallas Cowboys.

[johnyoyo]

I got
5. 13 Seahawks
4. 86 Giants
3. 76 Steelers
2. 2000 Ravens
1. 85 Bears

[vanilla]

the 1977 falcons are statistically the best of all time how are they not on here

[seansengpiel]

What about Lawrence Taylor, that was a top defense for basically 3 years in a row

[salvatoresultana]

70s Steelers
85 Bears
2000 Ravens
Fearsome Foursome Rams
Purple People Eaters

[pikapika]

we need honorable mentions for gritz blitz, no fly zone, big blue wrecking crew, and 2002 Buccaneers

[troyh.]

Underrated defense: 1977 falcons "the gritz blitz"
Honorable mentions: 02' bucs, 91' eagles, 80s giants, 15' Broncos, 60s packers, and more

[bluelivesmurder]

Just a couple things you messed up. When you brought up the 2013 Seahawks, you showed a picture of Earl Thomas in a *RAVENS* uniform and then you said the 2013 Seahawks beat the Broncos in the Super Bowl 48-3. Um no. They beat the Broncos 43-8 in the Super Bowl of that year. *GET IT TOGETHER*

[damonsonnier]

In no particular order: 2000 Baltimore Ravens, 70’s Pittsburgh Steelers, 2013 Seattle Seahawks, 1977 Atlanta Falcons, 1985 Chicago Bears, 2002 Tampa Bay Bucs.
