2018 Secondary

This has probably been mentioned before but i still find it astonishing that Marlon Humphrey allowed 0 tds this year...
and even more exciting is that once he took over the starting job he gave up 12 catches for 129 yards and 0 tds...
he had 11 pass breakups and 2 ints for the year and allowed a passer rating when targeted of 53.5 which is good for 5th best in the league (1 spot behind jimmy smith and 2 spots behind marshon lattimore)

on a wider level its a bit crazy how well the rookie corners in the nfl as a whole in general did this year - marshon lattimore should be DROY and could make a case for being the league's most valuable corner this year, tredavious white has had a great year also (i think he graded out as the 2nd best corner in football according to PFF) and then marshon who didnt allow a single td all year while being in the top 5 in opposing qb passer rating...

i know he's only a rookie but marlon really looks like a great find
Despite the end result of the bengals game being completed shit, the one positive was Marlon shutting down AJ green. Giving him his worst game against the ravens.

Only CBs to not allow a TD this season (PFF, min. 50% snaps): -William Jackson -Jimmy Smith -Marshon Lattimore -Marlon Humphrey -A.J. Bouye -Aaron Colvin

that's 2 ravens

and per filmstudy on twitter: Jimmy Smith and Marlon Humphrey each played 55% of the Ravens defensive snaps and were outstanding. That's more than a full season at RCB with no TD's allowed.

And Bouye allowed two tds in the playoffs, this past week.

Great story. The future of the defense is in really good hands because of these past few drafts. Just need a DC who can get it to translate on the field. A lot younger than people realize as well when guys are back healthy and others finally see the field. Marlon will be a star if he doesn't suffer the same fate as Jimmy and Webb(knock on wood). He's also so damn young.

Marlon will turn 22 in July. We have a lot of youth on the defense.

Reconstructure of jefferson contract.. what you all think that means?
I don't expect anything. Just creating room for the season and more flexibility.
Downside if Jefferson doesn't step up this season we can't cut him for another season.
