PFF Grades Week 1 Recap

[viman96]

That's the issue Dak was clutch during his first two seasons leading comebacks and whatnot. So, what happened...where is comeback Dak?

You mean like leading the team for a would be game tying FG that was never attempted? Or the dime he threw to Gallup to put the team in position for another FG or a couple more attempts at a TD? The comeback was there last night. I'm not making excuses for Dak. Failing to lead a comeback was not on him.

I assume that there were only 56 TEs graded, because anyone who played worse than Schultz must have been betting on the other team.

Yes he was graded the worst TE in the league yesterday

I said from the jump biadasz should get the start. I have zero faith in Looney

How many snaps was he in on (offensively)

 

[darthseinfeld]

I might get on with the Biadasz era if I'm the OL coach, at least get a rotation going at Center.

Just go with Biadasz full time. I like Looney, but he is only really a scab.

 

[Hennessy_King]

How many snaps was he in on (offensively)

6 snaps

Hmmm interesting to see Daks grade. I may be hard on him but he’s still better than about 85-90% of the league

Dak is a good QB. Anybody saying he isn’t, is lying to themselves.

I can understand the argument of “not good enough to pay X dollars”. But there is no legit argument that he isn’t a very good QB.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Is it just me, or did the defense get better after Vander Esch got hurt?

Stats are crap....no way Jaylon Smith played better than 3 other lb

 

[Kolemmitt]

These stats don't surprise me at all. The only reason we were in this game is because of Dak and Zeke. Yet, so many people want to blame the person that almost single-handily gave us a chance to win.

[RS12]

He got screened and seamed a whole lot last night.

Lol

It's coming soon. Stephen mentioned it and Collinsworth said it last night.

Stats can be misleading but these stats pretty much tell the story of what I watched last night. Aldon Smith was the only DL who showed up. Joe Thomas was the only LB who appeared to even have a clue. OL poor across the board, although I thought Tyron was OK. Zeke and Dak - good.

There are a lot on this board that think PFF is nonsense. But the grades usually line up with what I saw so I started taking them a little more seriously. Again they aren't perfect but they give a good idea of how guys played.

 

[CowboysBravesSpurs]

Dak and Zeke the only ones doing work? What’s new?.. The loss had me sick...

 

[unionjack8]

Zeke has no equal in pass pro in this league

 

[Praxit]

If you actually watched the game. Dak actually had a really good game. Just bad timing when the errors occured.

..drop balls didnt help either.
