2015-16 Broncos defense

Yes.

No doubt. Up there with the '85 Bears and the '00 Ravens.

>Held an MVP in his prime to 77 yards passing
>The performance against Brady in the AFC title game
>10 points to the MVP in the bowl

ridiculous

unstoppable

it's up there. if you look back at the regular season, and especially post season, you can see their massive success to keep Denver in the hunt the whole time. it's crazy. this game showed how offenses win games, but defenses win championships.

Pretty damn good
Stopped 2 of the best offenses in the league on their way to a dominating super bowl?
Defiantly a top 10

Nope, chicago bears 85 still better.

>>65469822
yea

>>65470374
he didn't say they were, you fucking autist

>>65469822
At least top 10.
Which is still bretty good.

Ben was the only one with the recipe. And Brady for 3 quarters in the snow.

Yea

>2013 seahawks
>85 bears
>2000 ravens

those are all still better

>>65470342

New England beat themselves in the AFCCG, be realistic

Dumb calls lost them the game

>>65470413
just saying, stop talking about all-time in a game that just ended 30 minutes ago.

No, best ever. This defense is the best ever.

is there a top 5 all time defense that didn't owl?

Von Miller had one of the best individual post season performances ever for a 3-4 OLB. The whole defense was stout, but Miller was HOF worthy.

Pey Pey deserves some credit for throwing 2 TD's to slay the Brady Beast. Pats were a tougher opponents than Carolina.

easily top 5. not top 3 though
>2002 buccs
>some stillers team
>1985 burrs
>2016 broncos
>2000 ravens

>>65469822
I think they're the best of all time due to having to play with Kubiak's shit offense. They did what they did and had to do it playing exhausted since the offense never stayed on the field. Literally no flaws in all 3 levels of their defense.

Line has Von, top 3efensive player in the league. Linebackers are super underrated. And THREE top 15 CBs. Safeties are big hitters.

Yeah, I say best of all time.

t. Vikings fan

>>65470481
99 Bucs?

They held the Greatest show on Turf to 11 points but couldn't win.

So in recent memory we have 2000 ravens, 2002 bucs, 2013 seahawks, and 2015 broncos
>mid-2000 bears never won a ring

>>65469822
Easily.
Also don't forget
>NYG in 1986
srsly great defense.

>>65470481
gritz blitz didn't even make the playoffs

>>65470531
But they won in 02 so it's kinda moot

See Bears
>>65470539

>>65470503

91 Iggles?

>>65470481
early 90s eagles with reggie white and jerome brown

2004 pistons :%)

>>65470470
I was talking about their regular season and post season in general. This game just showed how they can stifle the passing game, and block out the running game.
Look at the interior and exterior players on that D line. They were so well coached and skilled, it really did carry them to that Super Bowl, and eventually, the win.

>>65470459
>dumb calls
Kek. Never change, Boston

Top 10 maybe.

Say it with me:

DEFENSE

WINS

CHAMPIONSHIPS

Of modern time:

1. 85 Bears
2. 00' Ravens
3. 02' Bucs
4. 90' Giants
5. 15' Broncs

>>65470455
Soo....still top 5?

Retard

any traditional pocket passer would have destroyed that broncos secondary.

cam was visibly shook by the 2nd quarter and never got his cool back

>>65470735
Huh? No way you can name five, hell even six or seven defenses better than this one.

Suspended Denver Broncos Pro Bowl linebacker Von Miller unsuccessfully attempted to corrupt the NFL's drug-testing program with the help of a urine collector before each was caught in a matter that will affect how the NFL's collection testing procedures are done, league sources said.


This helps explain why Miller's four-game suspension for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy suddenly and mysteriously was increased to six games and easily could have been up to a year, the sources said.

Miller's initial diluted sample counted as a positive test and led to notification of his four-week suspension under the NFL's substance-abuse policy. While Miller's reps and the NFLPA were prepared to fight the suspension vigorously in the appeals process, sources said the NFL, NFLPA and Miller's representatives became aware that the Broncos linebacker and the collector involved worked together in an attempt to help Miller avoid a failed test.

Sources said the collector worked in Miami, where Miller spends offseason time, and the collector reveled in knowing the Broncos linebacker while being, according to a source, "star struck." It led, sources said, to the collector's willingness to substitute another person's urine specimen for Miller's. It might have worked, sources said, had a second collector not discovered that Miller was not in the city where his collection was supposed to have taken place.

"He's fast," one source said of Miller, "but he's not that fast."

>sources said
>netherlands
Keep trying senpai

I'm gonna say yes just because when was the last time a team even won a superbowl literally 99% on their defense, not just a major reason but like completely where the QB didn't even really matter

>>65470806
>he thinks weed is a PED

>>65470455
I agree with this. 85 Bears is the best D of all time though.

>>65471005
Yeah. The offense actually looked decent initially, but Carolina's defense really dominated after that. Broncos defense was just better. The offense gets a little credit for scoring 17 points off turnovers, Carolina couldn't do that.

>>65471005
00 ravens. Trent Dilfer. 02 Bucs. Brad Johnson. 2013 Seahawks, Russel Wilson. All really shitty QBs carried by elite D. 85 Bears but they did have Sweetness.

1. 85 Bears
2. 15 Broncos
3. 00 Ravens
4. 02 Bucs
5t. 90 Giants
5t. 13 Seahawks

>>65471429
Lol no. The legion of boom was better in 2013

>>65471575
>legion of boom better than lawrence taylor's giants, ray lewis/ed reed ravens, warren sapp bucs, von miller/demarcus ware broncos, or the best defense ever with singletary, ron rivera, refridgerator perry, etc.

farn please

Eh, they were pretty bad when you compare defenses from 2005. The 2008 Steelers defense was top 2 overtime if you look at things objectively.

>>65471429
>Brad Johnson
>shitty

I really wish this meme would die

>>65470459
>both starting safeties get injures leaving a giant covered by backups
>still can barely score

>>65470455
>seahawks
they actually had an offense to let them rest and maintain field position. denver's defense basically put up half the points themselves.

>>65472446
Ed reed wasn't on the 2000 Ravens

>>65470796
>tin brady
>gayron rogers

>>65469822
Fuck yeah. Besides the 86 Beras and the 2002 Buccaneers are the only contenders t b h

>>65471429
>Russell Wilson shit

He played essentially a perfect game in Superbowl 48.

>>65469822
I think the Broncos had the best defensive line of all time this year.

>Miller
>Ware
>Wolf
>Jackson
>Barret
>Williams

All top players in their positions. The linebacking corps is pretty underrated, great speed and tackling. Secondary got lit up one game and other than that, basically shut down the league. They also scored a lot of defensive touchdowns. So I say top 3 at worst.

>>65470796
Yeah, just like Aaron Rodgers who they dominated and Tom brady who they beat twice.

i went to high school with this guy

i still live next to the high school we graduated from

i never knew him tho, since i was the autistic loner

>>65469822
>Top 5 of all time
No
>Top 5 to WIN an Owl
Probably, but I am sure there are 5 other defenses that could just as well make that claim. Obviously there is a subjective aspect to it. But of all-time? I really don't think so. But now that their defense just single handedly own them a super bowl, atleast this defense can TRY to make a case for it's self.

>>65470470
You're talking all time of a game that ended 29 years ago.

>>65469822
I dont know but the ravens 01 and the 1977 falcons are still one and two

>>65470459
No the o line lost then the game

>>65472950
>>65471429
>>65470772
>>65470503
The 2013 Seahawks literally held the GOAT Offense to 8 points. Manning set the SB completion record in that game and still only scored 8 points. That's how good their defense was that year.

>>65471429
