In case you haven't noticed (Wait, what do I mean "In case"?), the NFL has gone through some dramatic changes in the last few years.
The old values no longer apply to the safety position, with offenses evolving and the rules changes that give the passing game a huge advantage over defense.
Also, the other thing you clearly failed to notice is that Berry's coverage improved by leaps and bounds from game 1 to game 16.
