No. 3 most impressive NFL win streak: 1997-1998 Denver Broncos, 18 consecutive victories including playoffs.

The streak in the Mile High City began with the regular season finale of the 97 season when Denver defeated the Chargers. The Broncos would then win four postseason games including Super Bowl XXXII against Green Bay.

In 1998, the team started 13-0 before the streak ended against the New York Giants. Denver would complete the 98 season as Super Bowl Champions for the second consecutive season with their win over the Atlanta Falcons.

The Broncos were led by Hall of Fame QB John Elway and league MVP Terrell Davis, who ran for over 2,000 yards that season behind a strong offensive line. Denver’s defense, as aggressive as it possibly gets, played a large role in helping achieve the title. Oh, and let’s not forget Denver’s tight end, Shannon Sharpe, who had a very productive year and was the voice of the team during their winning streak.
