The Hidden Threat Lurking in the NFL Playoffs That Could Wreck Every Team’s Championship Dreams
Darnold ranks third in the NFL with 14 interceptions, just one fewer than his career high as a rookie with the Jets.
2. Chicago Bears: Leaky Secondary
One of the biggest red herrings in the NFL this season is the Bears’ defense.
Chicago leads the league with a plus-22 turnover differential, fueled by an NFL-best 23 interceptions. Yet the unit has surrendered the 11th-most passing yards and the fifth-most passing touchdowns.
The Bears also rank 29th in passing success rate allowed (46.8%), trailing only the Miami Dolphins, Dallas Cowboys and Cincinnati Bengals – three teams known for porous defenses, none of whom made the playoffs.
