I'm not sure what formula PFF uses to rate players or how their tiers work or if they even have tiers. Whatever your job is now...imagine someone who could physically never qualify to do your job, doesn't understand the nuances of your job, and yet gives you a rating. And then charging people money to access this imaginary rating. A business model that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey can still be playing great and be in the 80s. Is 80+ not considered elite for them? He's got an 85.4 grade, which is considered "high quality". That is a level below the "elite" level. Having said that, I don't care what grade PFF gives him, Casey has been playing at an elite All Pro level so far this year. It's the best I've ever seen him play in his career, and that's truly saying something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Former NFL players are some of the worst analysts around, and some of the best never touched an NFL field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lomaxgrUK Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Couple of interesting Bronco ratings in there. Connor McGovern (OG) has been excellent value for us this year, but I have a had time believing he's played like the best Guard in the league. He's had his issues in pass pro, especially against quick inside moves. The Ravens gave our entire OL fits on 3rd down. Josey Jewell (ILB) has only really played starter calibre snaps the last two games, and that's because Brandon Marshall is carrying an injury. He was excellent against the Ravens, but I (obviously) haven't seen the all 22 film from the Chiefs game. It's kind of worth putting an asterisk on his name because of his limited snaps. Shocked not to see Case in the bottom 5 QB's, but that list is rather pitiful so maybe he shouldn't be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH I'm pretty sure they made changes to their grading system. I think last year and before 70 was an average grade. I think that's been bumped down to 60, as 60 is in the yellow for grading and 65 starts the light green and it gets darker and darker as it goes all the way up to 90 where it turns blue. An example using their top 16 defenses just to give an idea to the variety of grades/their colors: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
43M Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Artie Burns score was so low, the PFF supercomputer that formulates the scores kept producing an error, and thus they didnt include him. That's the only logical explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their opinions make money, so more power to them. It's all entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnarok Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I find PFF useful for things like pressures, passes defended, targets, run stops, etc. The grading system is largely useless though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gannon12 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Donald Penn has been an absolute disaster this season and deserves to be ranked worse in the league. He has been halfassing it this whole season. He’s too old too slow and doesn’t even try half the time. He literally pulled a Daria and barely moved his hand up and let in an untouched DE.

This is a moot point, none of us know either so should we not have opinions on players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
