And of course the 1-1.

The only stat that matters

I find it somewhat ironic that Garrett is on pace currently for a 40 sack year, but did not score well here. Do they account for the double and sometimes triple teams that began after the 3rd sack?

I don't think so... it's production that matters. They do state that a rusher receives a higher grade when he produces a hurry/hit/sack against better opposition play, e.g. beating a double team gets extra credit... getting a sack that was flushed into your waiting arms as you danced with your opponent gets less.

However, it's not Myles' rush that hurts his grade. It's 77.5... the highest on the team. His run D grade is 58.2. It's hardest to do both "great"... so that's a trade-off he may be being asked to make.

Edge players also receive a "Coverage" grade. I can't find an explanation for it. My guess is it's based upon reaction to passes within their "range", e.g., screens, swing-passes, quick slants. Also likely includes passes a player bats down/tips. Myles grade here is 60.8.

Here's a link to their grading methodology by position... https://www.pff.com/pff-player-grades

I would think penalties affect the grades too. If not, that grade is surprising.

Here's the Top Ten... pretty elite company.

Makes me proud to see two of my lil' ol' sleepers doing so well.... Glasgow and, of course, Ali... **sighs**

Also good to see a rehab'd Incognito succeeding... Mayock nailed that one.

And all 10 are on different teams scattered between good and not so good teams. A lot of talent all over the NFL a by-product of the draft system?

Probably goes for other positions as well.

Has to be... I think Richie is the only one on the list ever to hit FA...

Plus when you find a good one and are able to lock them up long-term, they tend to play a very long time at a very high level.

Correction: Brooks did as well.... originally drafted by HOU.

The days of the Redskin Hogs and the Dallas incredible OL that allowed Emmitt Smith to break rushing records and others may be hard to repeat again.

Same probably goes for the Fearsome foursome, purple people eaters and steel curtain defenses may be hard to do again with maybe a few exceptions.

Well the NFL wanted parity.

Dallas has kinda one it again... with an elite RB... and a strong, if not elite, WR...

... now they just need to lock up the QB...
