2 more picks in 80 less attempts, and as many as 5 less wins don't do much for that argument. |
Your using team success as a measure of individual accomplishment. Both players play less than half of any one game, even if they do take every snap. Additionally, there's 21 other starters on each team. The Colts defense was 29th best in the League in terms of yardage.
And again, there's a difference between getting your guys reps and running up the score... the Colts were never accused of doing the latter because they never did the latter. The Patriots, on the other hand, did... I gave you two examples.
