They haven't played the same defenses. You can't compare point totals. They both have the best qb's, amazing wide receivers, good rb's, solid OLines... slight edge to NE.
Also consider that NE also has had a few defensive and special teams scores to help their point totals.
AND, you have to admit that NE leaves their starters in blowout games late into the 4th quarter for god knows whatever reason.
Throwing bombs to Moss when you're up by 40 points? Going for it on 4th down near goal line? That helps the stats.
