Darrelle Revis breaks up a pass intended for Vincent Jackson
He's not the biggest guy on the field. He's not the fastest, although he's pretty damn close. But he's the best defensive player in the NFL. A Rex Ryan defense needs a shut down corner like Darrelle Revis. He pretty much shuts down one entire side of the field. And what happens when a quarterback goes after a receiver on Revis Island? Reference above. Or, below.
Revis Interception returned for Touchdown
It's gotten to the point where quarterbacks, if they're smart, don't even throw in his direction. Last year Revis was all pro. Expected. How many interceptions did he have? None. Still all pro. How can you be an all pro cornerback and not even have any stats in the most importance defensive back category? When you strike fear into quarterbacks around the league. For this year, it's almost a given that Revis will receive all pro honors again, but can he lead his team to another AFC Championship? With a couple of interceptions already on the season, three in the last two Jets victories, I'd say Darrelle Revis has the Jets back on the right track.
