He said something like: "you guys might look at the offense and say that there's nothing that needs to be done to it for next season, but we won't. It's an ongoing process where we are always looking for the next...."[the earlier quote]

So, nothing to be concerned about...

Well 5 out of the last 10 were offensive teams basically. This year is still up for grabs. New England may make it 6 out of 11 for Offenses winning championships..

Pats defense has been injured all year which has led to them being under rated, I think. If they want to win the Superbowl, they will have to play SOME defense because I don't see Brady scoring at will against any of the defenses left in the tourney....

The saying should be "BALANCE wins Championships," IMHO...

You can have the best offense out there but you've got to be able to play SOME D, and vice versa. We couldn't play a lick of defense at the end of the game Saturday...we lost...

Of course, I could be completely wrong. We'll see.

Yep, teams that suck on offense or defense rarely win.

Most are upper tier on both sides of the ball.

New Orleans Saints: Bill Johnson

Bill Johnson =

Pretty crass. I wanted to find a better pic.
