Some clarifications: SB year they were 2nd in points allowed and 5th in yards.
They did go 15-1 the year after, the best reg season record in team history.
But in support of your argument, they were 31st ranked defensive team. On the other side, Packers were 14th in points allowed, which is not terrible. And Rodgers threw a pick and fumbled twice in the playoff game they lost at home to Giants.
So the defense argument has some truth in it but by the same token maybe the Packers just didn't get to play Caleb Hanie and Matt Ryan to get to the SB.
They can't blame the defense this year!
Or last year for that matter.
