ARI Cardinals showing great Offense is "better" than great Defense!

[MrEd]

A great Offense is better than a great Defense. They are showing that it is a great Offense that wins championships, not the other way around. In fact, if you look at some of the best Defenses in the league...it is the teams that have great Offenses that usually play "with a lead"....

I didnt realize they had won the SuperBowl already. Thanks. So why are 2 teams with dominating defenses playing for the AFC title?

 

[Kadiddlehopper]

1:57 to go, haven't shown it yet.

im sooo happy cards are going to the superbowl, they deserve it....GO KURT!

No actually what Arizona is doing is showing how they play very well at home and normally suck on the road.

 

[3rdandinches]

The other thing this is showing is that you need to get in the playoffs and anything can happen. Arizona's defense is playing great, very similar to the 2007 Colts.

I wouldn't be shocked if Arizona missed the playoffs next year but then again it is the biggest joke of a division in all of football.

Funny you say offense is better then defense when three of the four teams are excellent defenses and the fourth is playing great defense in the playoffs.

What wins championships is a strong unit, be it offense or defense and, the ability to execute.

 

[MiZFiT]

yea because the cardinals have won the super bowl. oh wait. come super bowl time, either the ravens or the steelers defenses will destroy this pass happy arizona. sorry but this is a worthless thread for atleast 2 weeks. then maybe you can talk.

 

[DolFan31]

they wouldnt have gotten where they are now if they hadnt played a little better on D.

 

[djfresh47]

I think it's a combination. Also it depends where the team plays. Would the Cardinals offense be as good in a place like Pittsburgh with different weather conditions? Last year in the SB a great offense got beat by a team playing great defense.

Offense and defense win ball games. More so then not, it's the defense who wins it for teams but yeah, scoring points obviously wins games too

 

[MarinePhinFan]

ummmmmm...no.

Their defense is giving up, on average, 20 pts per game. That's tied with the Eagles for 3rd out of the 12 playoff teams this year. Only the Ravens and Titans are/were better.

Defense wins championships is the most overused and false cliche out there. It does win championships if thats what your team is built around. Great offense also wins championships if your team is built around that.

So why did the 2007 Patriots lose to the Giants?
