The stats disagree with you however...

I just think there were more playmakers on offense in 2003 and that gave them a slight edge.

As for stats, 2003 averaged about 60 more yards per game if I'm calculating correctly, and 2011 averaged 2 more points per game. One could argue who gets the edge in stats given those numbers alone.

I do think both defenses created points for their offenses and 2011 I would think, though I have not spent the time to confirm, special teams created more points for the team than 2003, and probably at a clip of more than two pts. a game, though I'm speculating.

2011 turned the ball over less. I can't deny the importance of that Doc, and that goes to your side of the discussion.
