And the, "there were only 14 true pass sets, so giving up 2 pressures hurts the grade," is a complete and total cop out; I don't even want to begin extrapolating that point to show the inherent bias/bs/both of what it's supposed to mean.

I can understand the low # of pass plays combined with the errors creating extreme numbers, but not that extreme.  

For example, in week 1, Sewell allowed 6 pressures on 71 passing sets and got a 67.5 pass block grade.  How do they also get a score of 5 on 2 pressures on 20 or so pass sets?

Unfortunately, for OL grades, the base score for doing your job is a 0.  You have to do something exceptional to earn a positive grade on a play.  That's a big issue I have with their run blocking grades.  It's weighted to give guys in man-power schemes an advantage because of more opportunities to tee off on the guy directly  in front of them to get a pancake or drive them off the LoS.
