By your logic, there is no way the Pats and Packers aren't near the bottom in points allowed because points are tied to yards eventhough both are 14th in points allowed.
So you are saying that eventhough the Pats and Packers are dead last in yards allowed and in the top half of the league in points allowed, they are both really giving up the most amount of points in the league but they are not putting them on the score board because the league is cheating for those teams?
Again, I am saying in the case of high powered offenses, there isn't a direct corelation between yards and points. I showed you the top three offenses in the league as proof. For teams with lesser offenses, there might be a coorelation.
I also disagree that to win the Super Bowl, the Pats are going to have to play a high powered offense. They could end up playing the Jets, Baltimore, and 49ers to win a Super Bowl. None of them are high powered offenses. In fact, other than maybe the Steelers, there is no high powered offense in the AFC and the two best in the NFC have similiar defensive deficiencies as the Pats.
If yards and points were tied together, the Pats would either be one of the worst in points allowed or middle of the pack in yards allowed. The fact is that just like the other two top offensive teams in the league, they are at the bottom in terms of yards allowed and middle of the pack in terms of points allowed. So there are no coorelation between the two with high powered offenses.
I guess if a team played the Pats or Packers, they would EVENTUALLY score a ton of points in the 8th or 9th quarter of the game because they aren't in scoring more than most in most games. The fact of the matter is the Pats haven't allowed more 27 points in a game on defense this year and in many of the games that were scored over 20 points, the points came in garbage time to push them over 20 (Miami, Chargers, Colts, Broncos, Eagles).
