Career (including playoffs) = 19.1 / 19.16
*NFL PPG average = 20.64 PPG (this is both for and against)
This (20.64) is the STANDARD by which offenses and defenses should be judged on a game by game basis. Herm has only fielded one team that qualifies as a "legit" team by this measure, and that was '04 when his offense managed to "Curtis Martin" it's way to a barely better than average year. Certainly his defense was good enough that year to overcome his lack of dominating offense though, and it was his best shot at a title, as has been pointed out. He was a "kick" away.
PPG stats for recent SuperBowl winners.

2003 New England = 21.75 / 14.88
2002 Tampa Bay = 21.63 / 12.25
2001 New England = 23.19 / 17.0

Well I see a problem with your post - those aren't Super Bowl Champions. They're Arena League Champions because they scored too much.
