And sure Arizona played in a weak division. They also beat some pretty good teams this year AND played extremely well in the playoffs.

The Steelers O averaged 21 ppg without a running game. Not the greatest but certainly not like Balt when they won the title. When a D only gives up 14 ppg and the O can get 21 it sure makes the O's life easier. If those number were reversed then I'd agree with your carried their ass theory but they arent so I dont.
I guess I dont know your definition of pretty good teams but in the regular season the only pretty good teams it looks to me like they beat were Mia & Dallas. They did get hot in the playoffs and thats all that counts and shows the importance of just getting in because once you are there anything can happen.
