I really didn't feel you were ripping on Dunte, just making a pretty good argument. I just thought of another thing in Dunte's favor, though. A defensive back's ability to be a playmaker is in large part determined by how much pressure the defense is putting on the QB. When a QB is hurried, he tends to make poor throws or poor decisions, which a great CB can make him pay for. It would be interesting to know how many plays other top corners would be making if they played for a team like the Texans which does a poor job of pressuring the QB.
