D. Hall is our lone Pro Bowl selection

A stat that might surprise some people is that Hall doesn't actually intercept passes at a higher rate than the average corner who gets thrown at as many times as he does. Or at least that was the case from 2004-2009. I doubt it's different now with 6 picks in about 105 targets this year: that's pretty standard for the position.

It would be false to say that Hall creates INT opportunities. He does not.

But Hall is in rarefied air on his INT returns: he's just better at them than most guys in the league. Both in terms of yards and scores.
