    The only problem is this team has not won the SB yet.

          that is great, but without a running game and pass protection, we will have trouble getting to a super bowl.
          Even if Bill Belichick was getting an atomic wedgie, his face would look exactly the same.

              True, but the 2000 Ravens won a SB a tenacious D and Trent Dilfer w/ somewhat of an anemic offense. We have more talent on this offense. We have the pieces.... we're misfiring on execution.

                Are those stats thru 13 games or the entire season?
