Cowboys win the NFC

Forgot to put the 2020 season where Bucs won superbowl. They had the #8 team defense that year.
 
Brandy's career wasn't made off of having an elite o-line that would be Emmitt Smith's career.
Brady had elite defenses. We will only look at regular season stats from years the patriots won the superbowl, plus the 2007 season where they went undefeated.

2001 #6 team defense - #6 fewest points per game
2003. #1 TD #1 fewest pts/pg
2004. #3. TD. #3 fewest pts/pg
2014. #8. TD. #8. fewest pts/pg
2016. #1. TD. #1 fewest pts/pg
2018. #7 TD. #6 fewest pts/pg

2007 #4 team defense

Although it is very tough, Super Bowl winners can take the title without a good D. Plus should winning the Super Bowl be what it's based on? After all it eliminates all the Vikings teams.

Brady not turning the ball over keeps his defense off the field.

I think this is a little Dolphin hateraid against the Patriots and Brady. Sounds like your typical tie salesman from Cyprus.

Super Bowl rings are why some consider Brady the GOAT.

Good D isn't everything, but it can make average Qb numbers champions.

Brandy's regular season numbers during superbowl winning years.
Touchdowns to INT's.
2001. 18/12
2003. 23/12
2004. 28/14
2014. 33/9. These are actually good numbers.
2016. 28/2
2018. 29/11
2020. 40/12. Good numbers

Aaron Rodgers 2010 season.(Superbowl win) GB had the #2 defense. Rodgers had 28 TD's and 11 Int's.
Aaron Rodgers 2021 season. 37 TD's and 4 Int's, but had #13 defense.

Trent Dilfer 2000 season. Baltimore had #1 defense his numbers were 12TD/11Int.

As far as Dolphin hateraid I just recently became a fan. I'm a Cornhuskers fan. I just needed a pro team so I could talk with coworkers about football.

Miami will get good in the next couple of years. And I will never be like player X is the reason we are champs. Mike McDaniel is a system guy. Which is good. Systems not superstars win championships.

Brady is very good he plays within himself and does his job. I'm not hating I want system guy you can pick them up lower in the draft and free agency.

Has a "superstar" ever won a championship by themselves? Ray Lewis?

I don't think 1 player can. Plus Lewis had another player behind him who was every bit as good as he was imo. Rod Woodson.

You're right, infact that defense was loaded. They also had Tony Siragusa, Jamie Sharper, and many others. That defense only gave up 165 points the entire season.
 
Another trivia question. Using the official, unofficial sack totals

After the 1984 season ended, name the top 6 players with the most sacks. All were retired by then. All had 130.5 sacks or more.
Hall of Famer Claude Humphrey just misses with 130

hint 3 players played the majority of their career for the same franchise. The other three also played the majority of their careers for the same franchise, but a different franchise than the first three.
 
Alan Page , Carl Eller , Jim Marshall , . Deacon Jones , Jack Youngblood . Coy Bacon. 130 sacks in the 60's and 70's is amazing . played about 30 percent less games and all outside in the weather on fields in poor condition against mostly teams with good running games that didnt pass the ball 25 times a game There wasnt some speed rush from the outside , you had to beat a guy straight up or inside that outweighed you. I loved playing defensive line when I was a kid. I didnt really start playing offense until the 8th grade.

You looked it up. :down:
 
i didnt have to look up the first five
Hardly anyone remembers how good Coy Bacon was. He has a familiar name though. Unlike Cedrick Hardman who had 122 in 10 years. San Fran for 8 years and the Raiders for the last 2.

Bacon got a late start too. Played semi pro first.

I wouldve remembered if he had been on an NFC perennial playoff team although I am getting old because I did watch a lot of Chargers games because they would be the televised late game sometimes . It would still be daylight there while it was dark here. Although of the six I'd say he wouldve been the one to benefit most by some lesser competition because Vikings and Rams played first place schedules and played all the other division winners on a short schedule.

1973-1976 the Vikings were the only team above 500 in that garbage division. During that same time the NFC East had 2 and one time 3 teams, with a record of 10-4 or better.

Broncos are now a contender.

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported Tuesday the Seahawks and Broncos agreed in principle on a trade sending quarterback Russell Wilson to Denver for a massive haul, including multiple first-round draft picks, plus additional picks and players, per sources informed of the decision.

The full package for Seattle, which also sent a fourth-round pick Denver's way: two first-rounders, two second-rounders, a fifth-rounder, quarterback Drew Lock, defensive tackle Shelby Harris and tight end Noah Fant, per NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport.

It'll be interesting to see how Wilson does in Denver. Dude hasn't been the same since he lost the Super Bowl back in 2015.
 
Cooper has been gone since the last snap of the last game . Irv Smith coming back , Vikings probably wont keep Conklin so that'll put a good TE on the market.
