Which 5 teams have the best Defense in the NFL....?

I think they are these teams in this order:

1. Patriots (scoring high and shutting the opposing teams down on offense)

2. Packers (Great front 7, getting to the QB and not allowing the opposing team to score, making huges stops when needed)

3. Denver (even though it isn't a great year for them, their defense is still tough)

4. Indianapolis (there are a few times, that the defense has allowed crappy teams to stay in the game)

5. Cowboys (They have allowed a few teams to score high against them and almost allowed the lowly Bills to beat them)
How can you say the Packers don't belong on the list? Last I checked, every team besides the Colts and Pats have lost games even with a good defense. Saying the Packers lost to the Bears doesn't mean they aren't a good defense. For the most part, the Packers haven't allowed more than 13 or so points to the opponents.

I put Denver on the list because they are great on coverage for the most part. I don't think they are as bad as their rankings show. It is like saying Green Bay has a terrible offense because they don't have a run game. They are still winning games that way.

I still like my order and the Packers should absolutely be on that list.

I like it except put Redskins at #3. Denver has the worst ranked rushing defense in the NFL. And give the Jaguars # 4 and Indy # 5

You really do have to look at the amount of points teams are holding their opponents to, that defines defense. The stats show that these are the best 5:
1 Steelers
2 Colts
3 Seahawks
4 Jaguars
5 Patriots

but, i think the list goes like this:
Patriots
Colts
Jaguars
Steelers
Broncos

I would replace Denver with the Tennessee Titans. They are 5th in overall yards allowed and they are first in rushing yards allowed, by far. Not one runningback has managed to gain over 82 yards against them.

How could anyone have forgotten them??
