Pass Protection Rankings
21. Arizona Cardinals (1.73)
Higher than you’d probably think given they’re a line that fields Levi Brown at left tackle. The big former first round pick gave up 70 total pressures on the year and finished with a pass blocking grade worse than any other player. He simply isn’t cut out to play left tackle. Outside of that, we did see improvement in the interior (though that didn’t owe much to Alan Faneca), and more questions raised about the value of Tim Hightower. He gave up more sacks (three) than you’d ever like a running back to. This team misses the quick release and fearlessness of Kurt Warner.

Higher than you probably think is right.
What they don’t mention is the number of plays the offense was actually on the field for. I wonder how much that would skew these stats.
