Highest Rated Defensive Players: Pernell McPhee (3.1), Terrell Suggs (2.2), Daryl Smith (2.0), Brandon Williams (1.5), C.J. Mosley (1.5)

McPhee had his finest game of the season this week, racking up 2 sacks, a QB hit, a QB hurry, a batted pass, and four stops despite only playing 50% of the snaps. He’s going to make some money in free agency this offseason. Suggs picked up another sack himself and has had a nice bounce back season.

Smith has come on strong late in the year and is a very underrated component of this defense. Brandon Williams did a great job pushing the pocket and allowing the linebackers to flow to the ball, as he has all season. Mosley has had a couple of off weeks lately, but came back strong against the Browns. Normally nails against the run, he was actually the Ravens’ highest rated player in coverage this week.
