Of all the Bears games you can think of in which BOTH excelled, which one is the greatest accumulative performance between both?

I assume that Steelers game in '69 was the famous game when Butkus and rookie, Joe Greene, went at it. Wow, Steelers who finished 1-13 losing 38-7 to a team that also finished 1-13.....
