Exactly and Defense is needed for that.

Example: NE in the Superbowl against the Giants.

NE had a high powered offense. They set records. But they also had a decent defense. Denver had a high powered offense with Cutler and no defense. Did they make the playoffs.

You need a defense to get you to the championship game. Because no matter how much you score you have to stop the other team from scoring also. The offense cn alwyas have a bad game.

name one team that made it to the Superbowl without a good defense.

The only exception to the rule I will say again is the Warner led Rams. Even Arizona had a decent defense last year.

I'll be waiting..

Rothleisberger was still the leader of the Steelers and warner of the cardinals. Without the leadership of these 2, I doubt they would have made it that far.

the question I asked was. What team goes to the championship without a good defense?..


im waiting....

[in the meantime]
Let me add to what you said. They could be the greatest leaders in football history. But if Pittsburgh didn't have their D they would be average. The most valuable player on their defense is out. Did they just lose to the Bengals?

I think simplifying it down to leadership is a bit trivial.

If they didn't have Fitzgerald and a good defense do you think they would have made it to the Superbowl. Fitzgerald put on a awesome performance during the playoffs. Their D picked Carolina apart...

Im still wiating on my answer..

Talking about making someone's point. You're comparing a whole unit (the 11 defensive players) on a team to the impact of one position - quarterback.

I disregarded your question about having a good defense because I would think you need both a good defense and a good offense to make it to a championship. All I know is you NEED a leader to get there.

The questions not for you, but the redskins should be: is there a leader on this team? And is the leader being held responsible for the bad performances?
