And you are basing this statement on what?
Pats points allowed: 239
Bucs points allowed: 239
Tied, but awesome indeed. We'll take the lead next week. :rocker:
Defense in the NFL is usually judged by yardage first, scoring defense second.

According to who? That makes no sense.
Are you certain those numbers are right? That would mean that neither the Pats nor the Bucs have had a defense TD, special teams TD or safety against them.
If you use points make sure you only charge points against the defense they gave up.
If the QB throws an int that is run back for a TD, it is pretty unreasonable to count that against the def.
Also yards are used b/c if one team has an offense and special teams are inept so the opposing team has an starting position of needing 15 yards for a TD, and another team gives their opposing team a field position so they need 85 yards to score, it is unreasonable to say that the first defense is not as good as the second if they give up slightly more points.
