Ravens D VS. Bears D?

Question

If you could airlift one of these entire defenses, from 2006-07 season only, to your favorite team which one would you take? All players whether good or bad, or nothing.

Explain Why?

Answer 1

I would take the Ravens D. I have great respect for the Bears D, but they were shown to be getting tired and quite vulnerable and pedestrian later in the season and in the playoffs (Favre took 'em apart at the end of the year, as did Manning quite effectively in the Super Bowl, as examples---meanwhile, the only scores the Super Bowl Champs had on the Ravens was Vinateri.....5 times...but no scores by Peyton....not by Marvin....not by Joseph......)

Answer 2

Ravens anyday! The bears defense was way overrated last year. I live in Chicago and all the idiot bear fans kept praising them, but in reality the D sucked since week 5. Also the bears got to play an insanely easy schedule which helped the D look better. Teams were able to run all over the bears. Ravens were so much better!

Answer 3

Make mine the Ravens. The Bears D forces more turnovers, but the Ravens have been a dominating D since 2000 and are showing no signs of slowing down whatsoever. Plus, the Bears have an injured Harris and Tank Johnson who could be in jail soon.

Answer 4

The Ravens. They have to play the AFC and a TOUGHER DIVISION. Heck here is one of the most important things- Ravens 201 given up points in the season. The Bears gave up 255.

For the record I'm a Steelers fan so I see how scary that Ravens D is twice a year.

Answer 5

Ravens. Cuz they have dominated for a few years in a row. The Bears D is just now getting good and they choked in crunch time against the Colts while the Ravens kept the Colts out of the EndZone and forced them to kick five field goals.

Answer 6

Ravens

Answer 7

Well.......I like the Raven's secondary far better than the crappy Bears secondary actually....Bears have some potential in them, but it really wasn't there this year, it's their pass rush that makes them good. Looking at the Ravens defense, they have good corners in Rolle and McAllister...not to mention an amazing talent at saftey in Reed...plus they had Thomas and Lewis at line backer and countless other players on the inside...I'd for sure take the Ravens 06-07 defense...

Answer 8

give me the ravens defense...they were the most consistent all season, and made life a nightmare for just about every offense they played...just look at the game they played against the chargers, they held tomlinson to 91 yds and no TDs, which was by far the best effort put forth by a defense to stop him...the bears defense is very good also, but they tend to give up points and specialize more in creating turnovers and scoring opportunities, but as important as those big plays are, i want the guys that can force 3-and-outs at will

Answer 9

A healthy Bears Defense wouldn't have lost a game last year. Once Mike Brown got injured in the Arizona game and was out for the year it changed the entire dynamic of the secondary and the entire defense for that matter. Factor in a Tommie Harris hamstring tear and that's why you have front runners wearing colts garb instead of Bears clothing.

Answer 10

the bears defense is really good but they are more of a team that will make interceptions and defensive touchdowns but the raves Defense is better at making huge stops such as a 3rd down conversion the bears defense gives up too many big plays but the ravens make stops and they have good pass coverage with ed reed samari rolle and ofcourse chris miccalister but i would go with the ravens
