I was watching NFL Network the other day and they had one of the Broncos DE in studio to talk about the win...At the end Willie McGinest asks him if he thinks their defense is the best ever. To his credit, the DE deflected and simply said he thought they should be in the conversation.
What sort of pissed me off was McGinest's suggestion that there was no other defense in recent memory to be as dominant. They both acted like they were the only good defense in recent years that wreaked havoc in a Super Bowl.
Wait, excuse me?
How about the 2013 Seattle Seahawks defense that absolutely DESTROYED what was then the NFL's most prolific offense of ALL TIME for 60 minutes, the likes of which this planet has never born witness to?
Wow, short memories indeed.
I can give Denver's 2015 defense their due respect, but let's not forget they were BORN from the 2013 Seahawks defensive template!
A tiny smidge of recognition would be nice. After all, it's the least they could do to what TRULY is one of the best defenses in NFL history.
