Over the last seven games, including Sunday night’s win over the Tennessee Titans, Savage ranks first in the NFL among safeties in overall grade at PFF. He’s been targeted 16 times over that stretch, allowing just three catches for 57 yards and zero touchdowns while intercepting four passes and breaking up six others. Quarterbacks have a passer rating of 2.3 when targeting Savage since Week 10.

Coach Matt LaFleur believes the right process is finally starting to create big results for a young, talented player.

“I think he’s just trusting what he sees, trusting his eyes,” LaFleur said Sunday night. “I think (defensive backs coach) Jerry Gray does a phenomenal job with him, just always talking to him about making sure his eyes are right, making sure he’s doing his responsibilities. Those plays will come to you. You have to trust it.”

Someone in the game chat (I forgot who) made and excellent point about the dropped interception. Savage was moving in toward the ball so rapidly, it make the throw much more difficult to catch.

He is scary fast. So fast, you could match him up on slot.

I think Savage is excelling quicker than Nick Collins did. Collins didn't come into his own until his fourth season.
