Widely considered one the best teams to ever play in the National Football League, the 1985 Chicago Bears steamrolled their competitors with a 15-1 record. A threat on both sides of the line, the offense was helmed by bold quarterback Jim McMahon, wide receiver Willie Gault, and prolific and elusive Hall of Fame running back Walter Payton. The Bears fielded one of the most feared defenses in NFL history. Anchored by Hall of Fame defensive end Richard Dent and Hall of Fame linebacker Mike Singletary, the Buddy Ryan-coached defense only allowed 198 points and 4,135 yards with 54 takeaways and is considered the best defense to ever take the field. The Mike Ditka coached Bears rode their potent defense that only allowed 10 total points during three playoff games to the Super Bowl XX where they defeated the New England Patriots 46-10.
