2000 Ravens

They had four INT’s and held them to 152yds.

How good was that Giants offense really? They averaged 20.5 points per game which was 15th in the NFL that season.

Probably close to that Patriots offense in ‘85 but with a better running game. That Balt defense would have stopped any offense IMO.

Super Bowl XX Bears over Patriots. Bears forced 6 turnovers and held the Pats to 123 total yards only 7 rushing. Total dominance.

It is because @CowboysFaninHouston and I agreed on something yesterday.

85 Bears is the only correct answer.

85 Bears is the only correct answer.

FACT: '85 Bears defense didn't pitch a shutout like some Super Bowl defenses.

Yeah, it's really the Ravens then everyone else. No team has come close to a D like that.

Not close to the Ravens.

Overwhelming dominance was Da Bears

2002 Buccaneers was a heck of a squad.

 

[gtb1943]

The 85 SB was over before it began. Even the Pats later admitted they knew they had no chance.

The only other one like that was in 94 when SF destroyed the Chargers. Everyone then knew it would be a wipe out.

I know we hate 'em, but the Steelers allowed the Vikings all of 119 total yards in super bowl 9.

Dallas is also to be mentioned vs DEN.

I don't know about greatest but the Denver beat down knocking out two QBs was outrageous. Martin and White were unstoppable.

The Super Bowl 27 dismantling of the Bills offense was another one, knocking out Kelly, getting 4 Ints and forcing 8 fumbles (5 of which the Bills lost). Brutal beating.
