PFF Grades - Week Two

[America's Cowboy]

Have you asked them?

They don't accept calls or messages. They believe their ish don't stink and only their warped opinions matter. What a joke.

 

[atlantacowboy]

I'm not sure what will change with them? How are they all of a sudden going to get better?

Phillips and Joseph were dumpster dives. Their best days are in the rear view mirror...... But, that's what happens when you can't find talent in the draft and don't have a GM with the confidence to go into the offseason with a plan, target players, and swing deals. Heck our front office doesn't even recognize team weaknesses. They just think every player they add is golden b/c they've been right a few times.

I know some of you hesitate to utter the "B" word with Mazi but it isnt looking good.

We have a whole season to watch him because frankly we dont have anything else

 

[TheCoolFan]

Not bad for Schoonmaker...maybe there is some hope. But not for Mazi!

 

[DuncanIso]

Probably the worst DT grades I've ever seen. Joseph, Mazi, and Phillips just got dominated.

doesnt look good for Mazi. He can’t play. 8(

 

[charron]

 

[glimmerman]

2nd highest on the entire team.

That one hand catch and using his helmet to gather it in was awesome. Good for him. But again where was Luepke. We could have used him for sure..

I haven’t heard a word about Osa who is supposed to be our best DT. So far, he has been invisible.

 

[Staubacher]

can't have your qb at the bottom of the offense list... embarrassing.

Still made his 3.5 million for that turd drop

 

[noshame]

Mazi and Dak
But, but, but

 

[VaqueroTD]

Probably the worst DT grades I've ever seen. Joseph, Mazi, and Phillips just got dominated.

Well, when they were scrambling to sign cheap old men at the position last second, we knew there was a problem. Same for RB.

He’s a bust. He won’t be good ever. Avg like Crawford (or someone) is his ceiling.

 

[Redline360]

Didn't Parsons get like a 76 grade last week? How is he graded higher this week when he absolutely dominated last week. Both games he got washed in the run game it seems

PFF just beyond weird sometimes. Flip week one and two scores and I could see it

 

[Smith22]

When you treat the DT position as an after thought and sign DTs off the couch at the last minute, this is the result you get.

Fans, youtubers, etc screamed all off-season that we needed some juice at RB, yet management went against the NFL grain and chose old, washed up RBs and a midget as our rotation.

Both positions will be a major weakness the entire season.

I’m a PFF fan but this is a fair point and why we need to not take these as the gospel and should use it as just one point of reference to tell a bigger story.

The one thing about PFF that is unique and I kind of like is that they don’t care about the outcome of the play. If a player gets a sack they don’t automatically count that as a highly positive play. Last week against Cleveland they didn’t credit one sack against the Cleveland OL and instead suggest that those had more to do with Watson hanging onto the football and trying to scramble when nothing was there. When you look at the data as a whole there were some warning signs about this defense, certainly nothing that would have predicted the whooping they took Sunday though.

This has been a problem for a long time. Its just worse this year than I've ever seen it. We haven't had a high level DT since Ratliffe in 2011.

 

[CowboyFrog]

Well as if you needed more proof PFF was full of it...they were looking for #11 so they could run at him...

 

[Jarntt]

Our moron owner/GM and cap boy went into the offseason after watching how horrible our DTs were last year and gave us this:

Mazi Smith - 30.1 (33 snaps) - not looking good
Linval Joseph - 28.7 (24 snaps) - ate a healthy dose of pancakes yesterday
Jordan Phillips - 25.8 (19 snaps) - shared plates with Joseph

 

[BoysForLife]

can't have your $60 million qb at the bottom of the offense list... embarrassing.
