Wasn’t expecting to see Jamo and Monty on the worst graded players

Also surprised not to see Arnold or Davis on the worst list. I have to ask what kind of mayhem were these five guys involved with that they kept the above mentioned guys off the list?

Hence why PFF is always in question.

There is no way Monty was that low. I can not speak for Jamo as we do not get to see him run his routes and all that he has to do. But we see Monty pretty much every play. And I am not sure what Goff would need to do to get in the top 5 after a night like that.

But the PFF grades always feel like they watched like 10 plays…and not the whole game.

It seems like a bad business decision for PFF to offshore their grading jobs to a country that doesn’t understand American football.

Sigh

ill be honest, i saw him knocked on his ass a couple times when he was out there, excluding the false starts

people are stubborn on him, but guys…

hes not good, its fine to admit that.

Arnold was very much sticky, and i didnt think he allowed much in coverage

and CD3 was on DK, thats a tall task for any corner.

Agreed, but I don’t think they take the opponent into consideration. You either make the play or you don’t, depending on their criteria.

I would need to be subscribed to PFF to see his score for this game, could have been his Zone Coverage was really good, and his man was ass, so they cancel out, idk.

For sure. So hard to decipher exactly how they score.

67.8 is not that low, thats like an average PFF score, so that just shows you the rest of the offense just scored well tbh.

Very surprised to see Awosika and Glasgow that low, but then while I like the work PFF does more than most people on here, if there’s one area where their scores have always given me pause, it’s with the OL.

OL scores are weird

im guessing pass blocking might not be super great? cause their Run Blocking was fantastic.

80.9 certainly seems like a modest grade for Goff - another guy we get to focus on when he’s on the field. But they do rank him 2nd offensively and 3rd among all Lions players.

Kinda funny that DC gave game balls to Jamo and Kerby (and not JG). PFF ranks Jamo 5th-worse among ALL Lions players, and ranks Kirby only 8th among all Lions’ players.

Eye of the beholder, indeed.

Always take PFF grades with a major grain of salt. There’s no way they could have went and watched every single player individually, for both teams, every single snap, since the game ended late last evening. That’s on top of the already criticisms like not knowing what the playcall was, the responsibility of said players, etc.

I thought they were both pretty consistent, but did get beat a couple of times which maybe dragged their grade down.

So Goff has damn near a perfect rating, 18/18, throws a TD and catches a TD.
AND somehow only gets a 80.9 rating??? What did he do wrong?
I would love to see how PFF calculates these ratings
No way he was deducted points, He was perfect.
