Earl Thomas’ quietly dominant season

The common fan believes in simple stats. Touchdowns, sacks, interceptions, receptions, are what make good players, in their eyes. Contrary to popular belief, sometimes the best stats are the ones that never happen.

Many have rumbled in his first season with the Ravens, FS Earl Thomas III didn’t have the impact that he was paid for in free agency.

A quick glance at his box score totals from 2019:

• 38 combined tackles

• Two interceptions

• Four pass deflections

• Two sacks

• One forced fumble

These numbers added up to a Pro Bowl season?
