Rivals has continued its partnership with Pro Football Focus (PFF) which grants me access to their comprehensive analytics and statistical tools.
After each game, two separate analysts grade every player on each play of the game and the two totals are averaged out. Obviously no subjective ranking system is perfect, but I am finding that my real world impressions of a player in a certain game usually reflects the PFF grade.
PFF Grading Scale
90 and above - Elite
80 to 89 - Great
70 to 79 - Good
60 to 69 - Average to Above Average
50 - 59 - Below Average
49 and below - Poor
Season Defensive Grades (by game)
New Hampshire - 90.4
The defense scored a team grade of 90+. This is the highest grade since the 2016 season opener against South Carolina State (38-0 shutout) which was a 93.0 grade. That was the debut game for Scott Frost.
Overall Defensive Grades
LB Deshawn Pace (32) - 92.0
CB Antione Jackson (22) - 85.8
DT Ricky Barber (34) - 83.9
