lol indeed

Denver ranked 22nd in the league in points allowed (24.9 ppg)
..allowing an average of 101 rushing yards (surprisingly, 8th in the league) and 254 passing ypg (27th in the league).

That's pretty terrible folks.

Well, DRC had their only INT return for a TD but I would still argue that Bailey is the better cover guy. Sure, DRC has more tackles but that's because people don't throw at Bailey and when they do, he defends well.

I've been digging for the past 5 minutes for a "catches allowed" stat and can't find one. Might just be a casual observer's perception of how their defense works (or me just wanting to see an old Skins hero do well).

I really want to look at the numbers but rotoworld doesn't really paint the full picture. I mean I guess you're right in that DRC had 3 picks to bailey's none, but then again - Bailey was never a big interception guy except for that one season where he had like 10. He really was a true shutdown corner.

All that said, their pass defense still blows so it's more of an academic argument than anything.

He sat out almost every game this year and has been getting lit up covering wr3s. He's not what he used to be, not even close. He's old but more importantly hurt. I mean, I'm wearing my orange # 24 jersey to the game Sunday and I can see that.
