Seeing Sam Tecklenburg rated higher than Tommy Tremble and DJ Moore reminds me that those guys over at PFF are about as competent as EA's dev team for Madden. 😠

PFF is just a tool. You must understand context. Moore hardly played. Teck was playing against the scrubs.

Tecklenburg looked AWFUL against the scrubs. The dude has never once looked better on the field than DJ Moore or Tommy Tremble, during that game or any other game. The only context needed is that PFF's grading system is arbitrary and wildly inconsistent.

Anybody with a set of eyes can turn the game on, zero in on those players, and come to the conclusion that Tecklenburg was the worst performing player by far.

To break down film, you have to consider several variables, and many of them are related to the responsibilities of the OL. For example, on a screen, does the OL make contact and release properly so the QB does not get hit?  If so, what if he misses his block on the CB?  If he pulls and his C gets bull rushed into the backfield a little bit, causing the OL to arc his line, do you downgrade him for not reaching his block?  I just do not think these guys know enough to offer grades. What if a lineman down blocks on a double team and clears out the DT in textbook fashion---but he was supposed to block backside LB.  Will the PFF know that he missed his assignment?  A WR may simply be running off a DB, so he allows himself to be blanketed.  Is that a downgrade?  Too much gray area.

    • Just like WR, you thin ignite and then suffer an injury and you are scrambling.  Any RB could have run through some of those those holes though and maybe you don’t get the same xtra yards but you are getting yardage.  It is the pass catching they will miss the most. 
    • Without Sanders, they are stil catching balls. Sanders is about a giveaway to it will be a pass play.   Also, hoping we see the competition at RB keep both guys on their toes. 
    • I was talking about pre season hype vs now.  They were talking about him being the best route runner on the team and being unguardable.  Putting people in the blender.  He has had 1 catch the last two games, and before that it was 2 per game. I like Renfrow, but it seems him and Bryce are not on the same page.
