What Pass Int (allowed) is
Interceptions made by this defense. Each one ends an opponent's drive and hands the ball over. Only partly repeatable — some of it is coverage, some of it is tipped balls and luck.
Higher is better. It is shown per game, so a team's number does not depend on games played. Source: P + N.
