The Bears..
Only managed that performance for one year, and were helped by a weak schedule.
If I were to pick a defense it'd be the Steelers. I believe the 76 Steelers it may have been 77 . Went TWENTY EIGHT QUARTERS without giving up a touchdown.

It was the '76 Steelers and it was 29 quarters. I have got to go with Tron on Pittsburgh here.
Other great D's:
'85 Bears - One season, but it was a great one.
'75 Cardinals - Not enough to get them to a championship, but if they had any offense at all, they'd have won a Super Bowl that year.
'86 Giants - LT and the crew brought it on every down in '86.
'73 Dolphins - The No-Name Defense was just that...a bunch of guys who played as a team and shut down everyone in thier path.
'69 Vikings - The Purple People Eaters at thier very best.
Any Browns or Packers defense from 1953-1968.
2002 Bucs. The best example of the 11-man "swarming" defense.

Steelers definitely
Buffalo of the 90's is probably in the top 20.

Eventhough the 85 Bears maintained that for only one year, they were devestating. RB'c used to shake in their boots when they knew they were getting the ball.
The Steel Curtain of the 70's was the best over an extended period of time.
The 86 Giants was good but for only one year as well. I think the 85 Bears was better by far, and this is coming from a die hard Giant fan. I know b/c the Giants faced the Bears that year and did absolutely nothing in the NFC division play offs.
The Cowboys of the 60's with Jethro Pugh and Bob Lilly deserve some consideration.
