Few would argue that the 1985 Chicago Bears were one of the most dominant teams in NFL history.
The team rolled into Super Bowl XX after losing just one game all year long and demolished the New England Patriots 46-10
31 years later, the '85 Bears still claim stake to some impressive Super Bowl records.
The Bears allowed the fewest rushing yards (seven), fewest rushing first downs (one), lowest yards per carried allowed (0.64) and most sacks in a Super Bowl (seven).
Otis Wilson recorded two sacks, Richard Dent recorded 1.5 sacks, Dan Hampton, Steve McMichael and Henry Waechter each record one sack and Wilber Marshall recorded a half sack.
Mike Singletary's two fumble recoveries and Waechter's one safety are also Super Bowl records.
Even though the Bears have not won a Super Bowl since that afternoon in New Orleans, that teams legacy continues to live on 31 years later.
