    What a freaking joke they leave off the 2008 Steelers defense :facepalm:. The 2023 Browns didn't even win a playoff game with that defense.

    Ravens should be #1 for 2000. The phrase "Defense Wins Championships" was true that year.

    Their last lost before winning out was to your Steelers.

    Bad list....The 2008 steelers deserve to be on the top 5 behind only the 2000,2006 ravens,2002 bucs and 2013 seahawks....The 2019 steelers had also a better defense that the 2019 patriots after they trade for Fitzpatrick

    What a joke. The only Ravens defense that should be on this list is 2000.

    Hell... our 2001, 2004 and 2005 defenses were better than most of the defenses listed and they weren't as good as the 2008 D.

    Seahawks Legion of Boom should be in top 5.

    Broncos Von Miller D of 2015, too.

    Bucs 2002 Defense was excellent. Deserves praise.

    Honorable mention: 2024 Eagles were damn good

    Look at the numbers of the 2006 ravens defense...They were that good.13-3 with a washed McNair and Jamal Lewis and in the playoffs,they don't gave up a single TD against the colts but it was not enough
