I think the proof will come this year. FWIW, I think Brady will pass the test...

Stewart had a solid year last year, so the question mark is the same for both the Steelers and Pats, and that is can both Brady and Stewart follow up very nice years with another good year. If they cant, the advantage will lie with the Steelers, because they do not allow teams to score on them, and have the top notch defense, and lets not forget Defense wins Championships. The Patriots are a prime example of that last year. Their defensive schemes are what stopped the Rams in the Super Bowl. But the Patriots, didnt really move the football against the Steelers in the Championship game, it was two special teams blunders on the Steelers that were the keys. The Patriots have a good defense too, but I dont think it is on the level of the Steelers. So it will be interesting to see what happens this year. I dont think there is a team in the AFC as balanced as Pittsburgh, and with depth, but as Chris Berman says.."Thats why they play the games!!"
