Offensive Line Grades

funny how the line play magically improves when the defense can't put 11 in the box

Or when they have to prepare for CMC moving out of the backfield, moving back into the backfield, taking the handoff, taking the snap, catching the pass, making the sturdy block on a blitzer, calling in plays from the overhead booth, driving the team bus and doing on-field play by play commentary.

Cam was electric on the scoring plays and he grabbed the attention of the defense on his other two plays, but the line was helped by CMC being a real threat more than by anything else. He's one guy but he changes the math on everything out there.

Now next week, with Cam and CMC out there... just remember that used to give Luke fits in practice. Imagine what it would do to mere mortals.

Better as expected.  But, I don't think these grades are accurate.  That was the 4th ranked defense we kept from getting a sack.  

And I've said from day news of this season, yes, I know Daley has looked bad at moments on the interior, but he flashed early at tackle.  Maybe there is hope for him there, and that is where I always believed he performed best.  Interesting to see what we do moving forward.

The impact of an massive infusion of hope. This team has grown apathetic. They knew they were going nowhere with Darnold at QB.

the worst QB in the NFL will make a OL look worse than it is.  Obivously, it's not a great OL.   QBs can either help a OL or hurt it.  No doubt Sam brought out the worst in the them. 

 

But but but but.....the OL is the problem! We just need to get him an OL! Who could possibly play well behind this OL?!!!

looking better

I feel like Daley did worse than his positive grade and Jordan did better than his mediocre grade but i'd have to rewatch. What did you guys see

I thought Jordan and Elf did better than their grades, and Daley a little worse (but not as bad as in the past).  But this is just run blocking so I kinda get it. 

I wanna see overall though. I think Elf made a huge difference in setting protections etc and I doubt that shows up on PFF.  I just think the line looked overall soooo much better with him.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
