No, this is not the first week we've had bad pass defense games.

We've basically had the same scheme since 2013, and has been the same Scheme Seattle has run.

Ramsey was drafted in 2016.  Here are our pass defense rankings since Bradley brought this scheme from Seattle in 2013-Courtesy of NFL.com

2013  T 26th overall
2014  22nd overall
2015  29th overall
2016  5th overall
2017  1st overall
2018   2nd overall


What can we conclude from this?

Several possibilities which may or may not be concurrent:

1.  Ramsey had a huge impact on the defense.
2.  The scheme either may not have the fundamental flaws you think it does, or somehow the coaching staff has minimized the flaws since 2016.
3.  You have overstated the number of bad games we've had since 2016
4.  Maybe factors other than schematic flaws led to the bad games.
