Todays NFL is different. NFL rules have changed so much that the old addage "defense wins championships" is as outdated as the forearm shiver.

I once looked at rankings of all the teams that won the superbowl the last 10 years and found that offense now wins Superbowls, not defense.

Also it was rare that any team won with either side of the ball being bad.

In my opinion, in todays NFL a great offense with a good defense appears to be the recipe for success.

Just my two cents.
