The drop-off in interceptions in the NFL also means some defensive backs have been immortalized.

Krause finished his Hall of Fame career with 81 career interceptions. That may not sound like a lot, but the only active player in the NFL with more than 36 is 39-year-old Vikings cornerback Terence Newman, who has 42.

In 16 seasons with Washington and Minnesota, Krause finished eight with at least six interceptions and two with at least 10. For perspective, there isn’t a single active player in the NFL who has topped six interceptions more than twice in his career.

Krause did most of his damage as a free safety before retiring in 1979. His 81 interceptions will almost definitely sit in the record books forever.

Night Train Lane, the rookie sensation of 1952

Of the unbreakable interception records here, Richard “Night Train” Lane’s 14 interceptions in 1952 has stood the longest, but is also the most breakable. Still, the odds are that it’s going to be safe for a very long time.

The few defensive backs capable of coming close are avoided by quarterbacks. The last time a defensive player even had more than 10 interceptions was in 1981 when Everson Walls had 11.

If — and it’s a big if — a player went on a run and got to 10 interceptions in a season, opposing teams would do whatever possible to avoid him. When Richard Sherman led the NFL with eight interceptions in 2013, he was targeted once every 9.6 times a team dropped back to pass — or less than four times per game.

And so for the last few decades, Lane’s 14 interception record that he set as a rookie in 1952 — a time when they played 12 games in a season — has been largely unchallenged.

Lane got his spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1974 and finished his career — which included stops with the Rams, Cardinals, and Lions — with 68 interceptions. But no year for Lane, or any other NFL defensive back, was better than his record-setting rookie season.

Favre, Blanda, Krause, and Lane are your interception kings and probably always will be. Some futurists predict that we'll be able to halt the aging process by the
