Default If you could only choose one...

Let's say the Football Gods say, "You can pick one of the following to see in the next few years. The other one will not happen."

* The Pats set an NFL record for fewest points allowed (stingiest D).
* The Pats set an NFL record for most points scored (most prolific O).

Which would you pick?

I prefer defense--far and away.

Bloodthirsty, pain inflicting, confusion generating, demoralizing, dominating, DEFENSE.

It all starts with D, IMHO. If you can stop the other team from scoring you don't need to score as much. Plus, solid defense forces other teams to punt from further back and creates better field position for the offense.

I would normally go D here, but feel we already have that nasty 'tude defense. What I want at this point in time is a scorching offense to solidify Brady as the best QB ever and to smash Pay-a-tons ego to bits.

My prediction - D will win this poll in a walk - which says a lot seeing as we idolize Brady

We'll already have a Championship D so I went with most prolific offense b/c that would be fun to watch.

Thats what Im talking about!! Wouldn't it be nice to win by say, 14 or more points on a regular basis for a change??

Brady deserves these new WRs. Lets hope they perform together as expected.
