The Ravens did squat on offense. Please stop that argument man, you’re making yourself look silly.

Check out the box scores and get back to me.   :)

Yes I saw them play.  Then you must have seen them score 39, 37, 27, 24, 27, 44, 24, and 34 in the regular season.  They had a number of lower scoring games too.  Playoffs they scored 21, 24, 16, and 34.

And why not?  Trent Dilfer is one of the worst QBs to ever win a Super Bowl.

lol.  It's a lot more complicated than that.  An offense that sucks doesn't score 34 points in the Super Bowl.   And top 30 points 4 times during the regular season, including 44 in one game. 

An offense doesn't just consist of a QB.  And nobody said Baltimore had a "great" offense that year.  We're talking about, in the bigger picture, whether offense or defense wins championships.  No question the Ravens D was awesome that year, but they don't win anything if their offense cannot score.  That's true pretty much every year. 

We saw it on full display just a few weeks ago, where an offense scored twice against a great defense to win a championship.

i remember one ravens td in the super bowl was a kick off return, there might have been a defensive td too, i remember ray lewis had a int return against the number 1 seed titans in the playoffs

ray lewis told the offense get us 10 points and we'll take care of the rest, if you have to tell your offense that it means the offense sucks and the defense is great

an offense is only as good as it's qb, the ravens had an average qb and their offense was average at best

defense can and does win championships, the 49ers losing doesn't prove otherwise and i don't recall anybody claiming the 49ers were overly special on defense, they just had a better defense than the chiefs but they also had a good defense, i think jimmy is about on par with trent dilfer, kerry collins is no mahomes

that last chiefs rushing td was just the 49ers quitting and realizing the game was already over

The Niners had one of the best defenses in the NFL all season.  They had the best D-line in the NFL.  The pressure they put on QBs was really impressive.  I have to assume you didn't watch them play.  Their defense was terrific.  KC scored twice in the fourth quarter against that D.

I think there are situations where defense wins championships and I gave a couple examples.  I'm saying that is the exception rather than the rule.  Teams that can score are teams that win championships.  That's almost always the case.

i know they had one of the best, but they were not elite we see defenses like them every season

one of KC's touchdowns was when KC was running out the clock

i gave you plenty of examples where defense won championships, your coach doesn't no how to manage a clock and makes poor play calls with a lead

I didn't say the were "elite."  I said they were great.  And despite having a better defense than than KC, they lost.  Yes Shanahan did a lousy job calling plays, which contributed to KC winning.  But in the end, KC's offense had to score twice in the fourth quarter against arguably the best defense in the NFL this year to win the Super Bowl.   

A lot of people agree with you that defense wins championships.  I just think it's a cliche that isn't typically true.

Off the top of my head, no I cannot name a team that won a Super Bowl with a bad defense, or a bad offense.

No you didn't actually.  But assume you did.  It isn't reasonable to conclude that because "several" teams with "bad" offenses won a Super Bowl that defense always wins championships. 

And regarding winning this discussion, maybe Ron can create a trophy icon for you?   :)

If Garoppolo completes the pass to Sanders the 49'ers win and everyone is talking about how great the SF defense is and how Andy Reid chocked again.  These games have a few key plays that determine the outcome.

still waiting for you to prove your point by naming these super bowl winning teams with bad defenses

i proved mine several times, you refuse to listen

i don't need a trophy icon, this was a blow out we haven't seen since the seahawks DEFENSE held the all time scoring broncos offense to 7 points in the super bowl in 2013 8)
