You want further proof, just look a the Seahawks. They are a great defense with an average offense and they are running over all of these great offensive teams every week.
What about the Packers in 2010? Or the Colts the year they won the Super Bowl? Or any of the Patriots' super bowl teams? Incredible offenses, ok defenses

The more I argue this point, the more I realize you just need to be great on one side of the ball to be in the conversation. Not both.

So, you have one.
2013 Seahawks - Heavily Defensive
2012 Ravens - Heavily Defensive
2011 Giants - Leaned more on defense that offense
2010 Packers - Heavily Offensive
2009 Saints - Offensive, but had a very good D as well.
2008 Steelers - Heavily defensive
2007 Giants - Heavily defensive
2006 Colts - Heavily offensive
2005 Steelers - Heavily defensive
2004 Patriots - Leaned more on defense than offense
2003 Patriots - Heavily defensive
2002 Bucs - Heavily defensive
Actually, two. The colts D in 2006 was mediocre, at best.

Those 2003 & 2004 Patriot teams had very good defenses. The 2007 Patriots team had a great offense and mediocre defense and they lost to the Giants because their offense got shut down.
The Saint's 2011 offense was record setting and they didn't win shite because they didn't have a defense.
ETA: My point is it's easier for a great defense to hold a great offense to less than 20 than it is for a great offense to put up 40 on a great defense.
