Some stuff will fluctuate all year. I think the 3rd down percentage will equalize towards the mean a little, for example. Then again, I think we'll see the turnover rate climb a little to partially offset it. That said, I think the red zone performances are legit - this team simply appears built to be very good in that area.
They've been pretty good on 3rd down for a couple of years now. I think they're a top 5 3rd down defense so I wouldn't undersell that.
