PFF Grades - Week 15

[Luvnit2]

There is always a whipping boy or 2 in this forum. This year it is Collins and Apple. Last year it was Apple and the OL (including Jonah). I am not saying a lot of the criticism was not warranted in some cases. I just am not a fan of our fans taking personal shots or making outlandish statements when players struggle.

Eli Apple has stepped up in 2022 and helped hold our secondary together, yet some still like to take pot shots at him. Collins has not done a good job of pass protecting in 2022, he also obviously has back issues and why he gets at least 1 day off a week. The NFL is hard enough blocking guys like JJ Watt when healthy, I can't imagine how hard it is when they are 80 to 90%.

I hope we keep winning and have a shot to give Collins a week or 2 off heading into the playoffs. Adenji has shows signs of being capable, maybe give him a shot and rest Collins. This 2022 has had a lot of players step up when others were injured, I would love to see if our back up RT has improved. Maybe we have the answer for future RT already in house. Players do improve and I always root for players to get better and not their demise.
