It was definitely a team effort. Neither could have won alone. The US bombing campaign also diminished German industrial capacity somewhat and forced the allocation of 88s and manpower to defend assets far from the front. If the US didn't enter the war or Japan interdicted supplies entering east Russia we would have seen a US-Germany cold war instead of a US-Soviet cold war.
Reminds me of [this bit by Norm Macdonald.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIO0DesXpdo)
"And who did they choose to go to war with? The World! And it was actually close!"
