not sure on your babbling but only one team won the Bowl on Defense the 2000 Ravens............................but focus on that and be committed to losing to reality.......................OFFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS
I don't know what league you have been watching the last decade or so, but in addition to the 2000 Ravens, the 2002 Tampa Bay Bucs followed the same model, the 2005 Steelers followed the same model, and to a great extent the 2008 NY Giants also followed that formula.
Yes, the Pats, Saints, Colts, and to an extent the 2008 Steelers were offensive juggernauts....but by no means has that been the only path to championship success. These teams with monster defenses...and quite frankly, mediocre offenses won Super Bowls.
Sure, I want the offensive juggernauts....but beggars can't be choosers and I will take the defensive killers if that is all there is to take.

and BTW the Big Ben with NO OL has been in three super bowls and won two

Obviously since you ignored my point you agreed with it. There have been several teams with mediocre offenses and great defenses that have won the title. There are no ifs and or buts about it and if you disagree you are fricking nuts.
And yea, Big Ben with a questionable offensive line at times has won a couple and been to another SB. My point exactly. Mediocre offense....outf**kingstanding defense.

Mostly just through here.
While I live in Tn, I have never met Ghoolie, and have met Rich once, but mostly through the boards and playing fantasy sports together.
Tailgates are interesting...in the end it's all good. We don't stand around pointing fingers at people calling them idiots if that's what you mean. We shake hands, slap backs, and share a few hours together having a good time.

No that says without a top defense the 31 pts would look more like 40 or 50+. Defense and special teams add to that total anyway. The Packers had a pick 6 that was the difference in last year's Super Bowl (just like many previous Super Bowls). Having a top defense doesn't mean you allow 0 pts a game. The Gipper is using stats to prove his point. You have yet to refute his claims with any relevant facts..

Yawn- wrong again Rich. And I even managed to overlook Tampa Bay's SB that was won on DEFENSE. Short attention span? you're old enough to remember this one, right? The 1985-6 Bears set Super Bowl records for sacks (eight) and fewest rushing yards allowed (seven). Or perhaps you don't realize when your defense gets lots of three and outs, it sets up your offense to score a ton of of points? So much for those "victory margins" in the Super Bowl.
Now don't go getting all hysterical on us when we've been showing you your premise is more full of holes than Swiss Cheese.

The facts are right in front of you....its just that they get in the way of your delusion.
And the fact is that more often a team with an outstanding defense and a mediocre offense wins titles than a team with an outstanding offense and a mediocre defense.
(lets also note how many time that point total you cite was significantly augmented by defensive plays: The Bucs brought back two Ints for TDs. The 2008 Steelers win by like a 100 yard return by Harrison, etc. etc. etc.)

Yes, these stat rankings don't account for turnover ratio which was very important for the Saints.
And Indy's defense stepped it up in the playoffs, but they weren't all that during the season.

We drafted O'Hara cut him to draft Faine Rich4nothin
********************************************
Come on, now, old buddy Rich - the Browns never drafted O'Hara. El Wrongo again and again.
O'Hara was a good solid guy, but.... that's about the extent of the Browns drafting an offensive line.
They signed him as a FA.
That means he was overlooked in the draft, Rich. That means he was undrafted.
And that was the crux of the Browns' problems. They didn't value the oline,
and rarely drafted offensive linemen to build their offense.
They just spend their high draft picks on flashy prima donna's, and qb who got the (*^(*% beaten out of him.
And they rarely could ever gain a yard for a first down.
Cam Newton went to Carolina, where he enjoys a talented, completely Carolina drafted oline.
Rapistbooger went to a complete offense with a complete offensive line, and a top five defense.
The Jags and stupid stinkin ratbirds last night? Two highly drafted qbs'. You'd never know it by how they played.
Bad. Really, really, really pitiful. I'll gladly keep Colt over them and several others in the league.
Btw, Rich - go look up how your squeelers and ratbirds have drafted offensive linemen over the years.
Then look at how the Browns didn't do it, but rarely.
That's the story. It will be a different story when the Browns draft a RT early on, and an OG, or sign one.... next spring.
Meanwhile, when did it become "cool" to start a dumb ghoolie type thread?

If defense wins Championships why is the average score of the winning team in the Super Bowl 31 points, because the loser sucked on defense or the winner had a really good offense..

Rich, we already answered that one for you. Teams with great defenses force a lot of three and outs, giving their respective offenses more chances to score, as well as superior field position. Count in special teams scores, turnovers- stuff like that.
I'll leave it up to Gipper to look it up, as I don't have the time to- but I'd be willing to bet the losing Super Bowl team- with very few exceptions- defense had the inferior stats, both in the game and for the season.
BTW, the Colts won their Super Bowl because of their defense and Bob Sanders, not Peyton Manning who had a very pedestrian game.
You think the Bears won their Super Bowl because of Jim McMahon? The Redskins won theirs with Doug Williams because the Donkeys had perhaps the worst defense ever to play in a Super Bowl, resulting in a mega blowout.

Winner. Why haven't the Colts gone back to the Super Bowl? Because Bob Sanders is done and their defense isn't good enough.. Manning is good enough to take his team to the playoffs, but defense wins championships..

NO you did not if defense wins why does offense win Super Bowls..31 points given up is not defense
It is amusing to see us want to cling onto losing despite reality and statistics
Offense Wins.......Franchise QB's are the key.............Defense keeps you in the game.........Go Buckeyes -
This thread is so amusing OL is the key despite the losing and defense wins Super Bowls even if the winner scores 31 points on average against those august useless defenses.......................and the beat goes on........................the herd drinking cool aid of losers keeps spouting the dumbmess amd yet Ghoolie and I Correctomundo going a dozen years have been correctomundo all dozen............................but the herd swills the cool aid and never gets it
and maybe that is why Brownstown is where it is .......................LOSERS
meantime losers we spent way more money on OL guys the last twelve years than any other team but we keep losing famously

WTF is it about the statistics you were given that you don't understand? Why have the SB winners averaged 31 ppg as you say (I will take your word for that stat)?
Yea, maybe because the winner had a good offense and the loser a lousy defense. I never claimed that a championship team didn't need a good to great offense. I think they do. But the fact is....more often than not, the team with the superior defense is the team that wins. That is what the stats showed. I am not married to those stats....its just that those are the facts and nothing I made up. You cannot ignore them.
(Also...by the way, how do we know that the prime consideration for these great Super Bowl winning offenses you profess is the fact that they had great offensive lines? Take the two aberrations: Colts/Saints. Great skill players on offense? yes. But also outstanding O Lines)
