No. The debate you and I had was whether it was a good defensive performance by the Patriots in the SB. You argued that allowing 21 points to Atlanta's #1 offense (which scored 34ppg in the regular season, 30+ vs Seattle and 40+ vs GB) wasn't enough to prove that, and that YPC and YPA provided better context. See here: And now, you even bringing up 28 points total when you know that 7 of them were from a pick-6, along with cherry-picking three quarters as if the 4th quarter in a SB doesn't matter (and actually it was two quarters, as NE's defense shutout ATL's offense in both the 1st and 4th quarters), is disingenuous. I'm sure you know that but are just trying to escape from your turnabout. Pretty weak effort, to be honest. Also, you calling Hunter a bandwagon fan is arguably against board policy, so you're really striking out quite a bit here. Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says exactly what I claimed it did. Points allowed doesn't support your contention, and the YPP stats add additional context undermining it. Don't tell me that's not what I said and then quote me saying exactly that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this thread you said that what matters is points allowed and SoS. In the previous thread, when I cited points allowed and Atlanta being the #1 offense (ie. SoS), you said that wasn't enough. Toss another emoji my way, though, this is fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to you, points allowed and SoS didn't support my contention in that thread, but points allowed and SoS support your contention in this thread.
