PFF Sees It Too!

According to PFF, four of our top five graded players from last night are LB's...

TOP 5 GRADES:
LB Manti Te’o, 84.7 overall grade

LB Adam Bighill, 84.7 overall grade

LB Craig Robertson, 84.0 overall grade

DI Tony McDaniel, 82.9 overall grade

LB Nathan Stupar, 81.7 overall grade

PERFORMANCES OF NOTE:
WR MICHAEL THOMAS, 75.2 OVERALL GRADE
Finding Thomas’ name on this list is more of an indication of how poorly the Saints’ offense performed rather than a massive performance. Thomas was only targeted once on seven snaps in route, taking a crossing route 28 yards early in the game. He averaged 4.00 yards per route run for the game, and produced half of his receiving yardage after the catch.

RB ALVIN KAMARA, 53.2 OVERALL GRADE
Kamara got the Saints off to a fast start with a 50-yard touchdown run on the opening play of the game. He would also record a game-high 79.7 receiving grade, and, thanks to the long run, generated a 166.7 elusive rating. While he essentially did his damage on two plays, it;s obvious that the explosion he displayed at Tennessee has carried over to the highest level.

LB CRAIG ROBERTSON, 84.0 OVERALL GRADE
Robertson seemed to be involved on every snap he played, as he racked up four solo tackles and five total defensive stops. One of those stops was a sack, and he also notched a QB hit.

LB ADAM BIGHILL, 84.4 OVERALL GRADE
Bighill performed well in the second half, notching two stops and a QB hurry. He put the cherry on top of his day by intercepting Jones’ fourth down hail mary in the last minute, high-pointing the ball in front of a Chargers receiver.

I know I am getting old, but who the hell is this Bighill guy? Where he come from? He looked pretty solid out there.

As log as dat dude is spankin' dat azz for da Who Dats.... who cares lol

Re: PFF Sees It Too!
 

Another CFL import. He was a CFL stud.

Re: PFF Sees It Too!
 

I like the fact that Adam Bighill was always at the bottom of plays. he was in there early and often.

Re: PFF Sees It Too!
 

You don't remember the Saints signing him earlier this year? He was like the CFL Defensive Player of the year. Big time motor. Good attitude.

I definitely think he cracks the 53.

Re: PFF Sees It Too!
 

Well now that PFF gave them a positive grade, I feel less secure in my own positivity about these players... Okay, not really, but PFF remains a joke in my book.

Re: PFF Sees It Too!
 

Yeah it's just one of those things where we trash PFF if they criticize our players but celebrate when they praise them. Double-edged sword.

Re: PFF Sees It Too!
 

lol, yeah, but believe me I will never praise them. I frequently disagree with even their positive grades. Zach Strief is one example that comes to mind. This is a rare instance where I agree with them, and the grade makes any kind of sense.

Re: PFF Sees It Too!
 

The guy is a great story that has overcome all kinds of obstacles and remembers where he came from in life...
