Coming into the playoffs pass defense was my biggest concern.
Then we won in the playoffs with great pass defense while our offense struggled to finish drives with TDs (only 5 in 32 possessions).
But that is how the NFL works. Winning championships is as much about getting hot at the right time as it is overall talent level. And since the bye (game #11) Apple has been one of the top rated CBs in the league according to PFF. And just to be clear, I am not talking about PFF's individual player rating. I am talking about the objective stats they keep like "yards-per-target" and "completion percentage allowed".
