    Steelers are the best balanced team in playoffs

    If we look at passing, rushing and receiving stats, only 3 teams in the playoffs have above average offensive and defensive rankings.

    Pittsburgh
    Offensive rank average: 11
    Defensive rank average: 3.33


    Houston
    Offensive rank average: 12.67
    Defensive rank average: 3.33


    Atlanta
    Offensive rank average: 11
    Defensive rank average: 15.67

    We can see here that Pittsburgh has the edge in both offense and defense.

    Lets look at some other teams.

    New Orleans
    Offensive rank average: 2.67
    Defensive rank average: 23.67

    See the problem? Bad balance. Fantastic offense, lousy defense.

    New England
    Offensive rank average: 8
    Defensive rank average: 26.33

    Same story as New Orleans. Out of balance.

    Green Bay
    Offensive rank average: 11
    Defensive rank average: 26

    Same story, and Pittsburgh still with the edge defensively.

    Baltimore
    Offensive rank average: 16
    Defensive rank average: 4

    All teams aside from Pittsburgh, Houston and Atlanta are significantly out of balance. Pittsburgh has the edge.

    PPG and OPPG stats are much more important.
