NOTE: The DvP rankings listed above are for that of the opponent. Let’s use the Colts as this week’s example. They are facing the Saints, who as you can see above, are ranked 31st against quarterbacks, 28th against running backs, 8th against wide receivers, and 28th against tight ends. Being ranked 1st means the defense is the best at defending that position, while being ranked 32nd means that defense is the worst at defending the position.
