Check out how well defenses play against quarterbacks in the table below.
You can check out the Defenses vs Running Backs, Wide Receivers and Tight Ends under those hyperlinks.
FO – Football Outsiders rankings of defenses against the pass
QBR – The Cold Hard Football Facts QB Rating allowed
Pass Rush/Coverage – Pro Football Focus‘ grade for defenses (the higher the number the better the D is)
If you have any other questions about the table, hit me up in the comments.

Nice work Chet. I could have used this table before I did my midweek PFR column on good QB pairs to have for the stretch run (http://tinyurl.com/ch25vqo). Had to finagle ESPN’s ‘Points Allowed’ grid. Might revise based on these. Thanks for the legwork. @PatThorman
