the jets also ran the ball a ton more than the pats. bulk yards are just so awful. not to mention the pats had a tougher schedule against the run. and running backs are fairly interchangeable with few exceptions, so even if LT/Greene > greenellis/woody, it's not that big of a deal.
But I disagree on the OL thing for sure. The Pats OL, especially with Mankins playing a full season, is as good as any.
And finally, you say QB edge goes to pats, whereas every single other component you give an edge to the jets. that says to me jets o >>>> pats o, which is clearly not the case. just compare pass o and rush o and whatever. stop breaking down things that are nearly impossible to compare.
pats o >>>>> jets o
jets d >>>> pats d
pats st > jets st
