Last year's team was one of the best offenses of all time. But as history shows us most of the all time great offenses never won it all, except for the 99 Rams, but they had a top scoring defense. Pretty much all of the other top 10 offenses of all time didn't get it done.
This year's team has a far better chance to win it all because we have a top 10 scoring offense and defense. Teams with great offenses usually have more consistent, sustained success, but when they actually win it all they have a solid defense to provide some balance. It's true of Manning, Rodgers, Favre, etc. Look at the years they won it all and they had good defenses, at least in the playoffs if nothing else, but usually in the regular season too. Rodgers and Favre won their one title each when they had a seriously legit defense. Manning's Colts played great defense in the playoffs and of course his Broncos title was pretty much carried by the defense. Same with Roethlisberger and Russell Wilson.
