I don't think the Pass D should be ranked by yards given up. That stat is more than meaningless. it is actually opposite of what you are trying to show.

The teams that gave up 400+ yards in a game won 73% of the time.

D passer rating would be more relevant. At least when that is low, you tend to win more.

Back in 2005, I think it was maybe April or late March, Jon came out with Paul Hackett and said he had a surprise for me after we kind of watched some film and talked some ball. One of my childhood, favorite players, being a huge 49ers fan growing up, Jerry Rice comes walking down the steps and I get to throw passes to him.

Think about a 21-year-old kid throwing to one of your idols, how nervous you think you would be, I was that and then some. I overthrew him a couple times, but it was exciting to be able to throw to him and to work with Jon and Paul, great coaches, who had been around the game a long time.

I don’t fault them for taking Cadillac, he had an incredible college career and a great rookie season. He was slowed down by some injuries. But I don’t blame them at all or don’t hold any animosity toward Jon and Bruce or the organization. Everything kind of happens for a reason. Looking back on when they came out and visited me in Berkeley, that was one of my top moments in my sports career, being able to throw to Jerry Rice.
