I’ll reiterate for you, if that helps.Every year, fans/media look at the hot teams that make deep runs and try to posit a new fool-proof strategy based on those teams. When the Hawks won, it was all about how you need your QB on a rookie deal. When the Broncos won, it was that you have to just pour all the resources into the defense with heavy FA usage. When the Pats won it’s all about how you have to sell your soul to the devil. When Kaepernick and Cam were having success it was about the era of the running QB, blah blah blah. People take one thing that’s successful and act like it is now THE thing if you want to be successful.So what I said was that it’s misguided to take one year and decide that there’s a new formula. The final four this year favors the defense. The final four last year favored the offense. The reality is that you have to be really good to make a run and win it all, and it can be done by teams that skew more heavily offensively and who skew more heavily defensively. Nowhere did I say that offense is all that matters or that defense doesn’t matter.</blockquote>
