I'd say the 2 offenses were probably about equal.
Probably because they had 101 fewer plays to defend.

I'd say, if you want to compare the defenses on an even level, yards per play is probably the best way to do so.

Tell me, if a player rushes for 100 yards on 90 carries, and another rushes for 98 yards on 18 carries, who had the better day?
