He had a 50 point jump from his average PFF grade. But, its the Giants so lets not get too excited.
I wonder what grades Daron Payne, Dalvin Tomlinson, and Harrison Phillips got against the Giants? Does anyone have a PFF account that can share that info?

Wouldn't matter bc it is senseless comparing one isolated game and drawing conclusions about a career in progress. Mazi hasn't played consecutive good games in his career thus far. If he holds up against Pittsburgh, maybe we have something.

I ask this because the Giants had better success running the ball against those teams as a whole.

Anyone ready to admit this guy is pretty much a bust? He needed to step up this season and be a key for our run defense, but as we can see that's been an absolute failure so far
Timing is everything. This would have been a reasonable thread before last Thursday's game. After last Thursday's game, where we held the opponent to nearly 1 yard per carry, he probably should have been thrown a mulligan.

Read the thread date. This thread was started after the Ravens game

Prolly, but too early to announce it. Why do you feel the need to preanoint him as a bust?

Thanks. I guess it got bumped up. At that time, I can't say he didn't deserve the criticism. Good to see him step up last week.

But they also ran for quite a bit more yards against those teams than they did against Dallas.
That is irrelevent. Obviously, the yards pile up with attempts. The important stat is YPC. A team that runs the ball 35 times for 100 yards is not running it more effectively than a team that runs the ball 20 times for 90 yards, even though 100 is more than 90.
