Pfft grade are like fantasy football touts writeups...uhhh yeah here are the guys I'd target this game...and then they proceed to list every single fuggin player from every single game. the info product space is all a scam. For $299 a season, I'll tell you how the browns are 7th in the league in scoring bandanas and rank 14th in average air quality measurements per snap.

There's probably some long, arcane explanation for why Paradis was *technically* playing his position correctly while he was being thrown back into Sam's lap like a toddler.  Us mere mortals just can't comprehend the wizardry the folks at PFF use to see who is *really* good.  It's our fault, really.

I don't know how their grading system works but they're so high on it that they refuse to adapt it for when it gives them a clearly flawed result. Hell, they might be crediting him for a plus play on the plays where he's in good position but gets forklifted into Darnold's lap because from a technical perspective he did do his job. He was just physically incapable of carrying out the task. Which is one helluva flawed grading system if that's how they're rationalizing his grade.

I think the fact that these grades are available SO QUICKLY after gameday should be an inkling of how much thought goes into them.  There is no way someone watches every play, focused on one and only one player to accurately grade them, for every team in the league, by the next day. 

That's a MINIMUM of 11 winds of one play, and honestly, it should probably take at least two to three times that to understand what a given players assignment on any given play may have been.  What's more, you may need to understand what the other players were supposed to do.  Was the back supposed to chip there?  Maybe the tight end?  Little stuff like that could make a mountain of difference to how a tackle might set up to play a snap.  

I'd be a lot more interested in seeing Panthers staff grades for our players, but obviously that will never happen.

      Off-season Thread

      Wow. Florida two years in a row heading to the ECF. Great goalie play in Bob and scoring.  We had a better team but were worse in goal.  We owned them in the regular season. Just shows what elite goalie play looks like.     bob vs Igor.  At what point does rod just roll with Koochie.  This is our future being fuged over by stubborn rod.

      Falcons got Cousins and Penix

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Cousins' Achilles rehab isn't going great because the Penix pick honestly felt like a panic move. But then again, the Packers have probably had the best QB play in the NFL over the past 30 years with Favre and then Rodgers and now Love showed great promise last year. They didn't need a QB when they drafted both Rodgers and Love and both guys sat for multiple years. The strategy has been working. Maybe the Falcons are trying to recreate that?

      Every Big-Time Throw from Bryce Young and CJ Stroud in 2023

      By CPF4LIFE · Posted

      First off...you missed the point of what I said. All I said was the offense could be setup to not have to rely on bryce in the same manner as other qbs if its working. And Yes the rest aren't proven commodities but NEITHER is bryce so I don't understand what you are getting at there. Lastly what is with this questioning of if bryce is liked? Liked how? Personal or football? See thats the problem with fans like you, you are so invested in a individual you respond to any critsicm with "do you like him". My opinion on bryce is strictly football....I DONT KNOW BRYCE PERSONALLY so I don't have anything against him in that regard. Far as football I said from the start I didn't see him as a top nfl Qb and he hasn't shown me anything so far to say I was wrong so based off your question...no. Just like everybody else on here, it's strictly football. Asking if he is liked in that regard, it's clearly no. He hasn't shown enough to be liked on the field.
