Also, if you don't think defenses holding teams to 3 instead of 7 isn't helping win games.........

The fumble and pic six don't count in the points allowed by defense average Bobby Boucher. Points allowed and points scored are two separate equations.
The rulings were incorrect, if a player possess the ball and is down in bounds in the end zone, without the ball touching the ground BEFORE the completion is made, it's a completed pass in the end zone. It was in both cases.
Minnesota's defense is ranked #1 @ 15.8 points allowed.......their offense is ranked 10th @ 23.9 pts per game. Their defense is winning games.
Minnesota has 3 Pro Bowl players on defense. They actually should of had 4....how Harrison Smith didn't make it is a mystery.....snub of the year....you could also make a case for Linval Joseph....he is the reason opposing teams don't run up the middle against the Vikings.
New England's defense is ranked #5 in points allowed...18.5 (it's really 19.4).......and their offense is ranked 2nd with 28.6 pts per game. Their offense is winning games. New England has 3 Pro Bowl players on offense.
Bobby Boucher I know this is difficult for you, but if your best players on the team are on offense, the offense is winning the game.
When you have a really, really good defense Bobby, like the Vikings have, this is one of their "average" players.
