Marlon Humphrey and Justin Tucker:

The Ravens gave the Browns play-makers a chance to pad their stats with the exception of their best receiver. Odell Beckham Jr. was kept in check by Marlon Humphrey. Things aren’t going right for the Ravens secondary however the one player they never need to worry about is Humphrey. Humphrey is a shut down cornerback, it’s very hard to attack him and there is no receiver who he can’t cover.

Humphrey has 13 tackles an interception and a forced fumble this season. Those numbers would be higher if quarterbacks were more willing to go after him in the passing game. Humphrey is the best defensive player on the Ravens and it isn’t even close. He is leading by example and for the defense’s sake hopefully other players start catching on. Humphrey may be the best cornerback in the NFL.

The Ravens actually could send multiple players from their special teams units to the Pro Bowl. The most obvious Pro Bowl player there is Justin Tucker. Tucker remains perfect on the season for PAT’s and field goals. The most accurate field goal kicker in NFL history is almost automatic fro any distance. There is no kicker nearly as good as Tucker. He deserves to be in the Pro Bowl. That is an absolutely obvious fact.
