Unveiling the NFL’s Most Feared Defenses: Who’s Poised to Dominate 2026?

Four of the Broncos’ top cornerbacks – Surtain, Ja’Quan McMillian, Riley Moss and Jahdae Barron – ranked inside the top 50 of the 238 defensive backs in burn rate allowed. Surtain, McMillian, Moss and safety Brandon Jones also ranked inside the top 50 in open rate allowed.
This explains why it was so hard to throw on the Broncos, who at 14-3 tied for the best record in the regular season. They surrendered the lowest burn rate at 43.9% and the lowest yards per play at 5.2, while finishing second in completion rate allowed at 57.8% and second in passing success rate allowed at 35.6%.
