Seriously, it's just not.
I'm sure I could pull out Corey Dillon's statistics and Tom Brady's sack numbers and stuff and make what sounds like a decent comparison of the Patriots offensive line to yours, but seriously although I like our line and think it does yoeman's work and is fabulously well coached by the best assistant coach you never heard of whose name nobody can remember or spell anyway (Dante Scarnecchia), I just wouldn't bother to do it.
You're comparing your defense to one that has been the prime component of winning 21 games in a row and 2 out of the last 3 Super Bowls. We have 3 1st round draft picks on the defensive line, including All-Pro Richard Seymour. Our LBs consist of multiple pro bowler Willie McGinest, and perennially excellent Tedy Bruschi. Rodney Harrison is awesome in run defense and overall.
And you're comparing Huey, Dewey and Louie to these guys. It just doesn't float.
