If the Broncos just had the 15th ranked defense they would have easily won that division and been dangerous in the playoffs.
Campbell is a solid player -- but he's no Cutler.

Didn't all but one of Campbell's interceptions come while behind? Is that not a greater percentage than 75%?
It's a good point that defense quality skews interception totals and Cutler certainly had no breaks from his defense, but it's not like those INTs aren't his fault. He's a career 3 to 2 TD/INT guy. That might not be his ceiling, but I doubt Campbell's ceiling is the 2 to 1 he's currently at.
