The 2000 Ravens season resulted in the first Super Bowl Championship. The Ravens won despite having an offense that underperformed. This is bevause the 2000 Ravens defense was the greatest defense of all-time.
There is no debate. The Ravens defense was the greatest defense. Surely the “Steel Curtain” had it’s rain in the 1970’s. Yes the 1985 Chicago Bears were ferocious. The 2000 Ravens greatness however outshines any defensive performance in NFL history.
The 2000 Ravens went 5 games in the regular season without a touchdown. The Ravens won two of those games. Trent Dilfer gave the offense a fighting chance but let’s not mistake him for a great quarterback.
