Surprised Hopkins is so high. He was really struggling early in the game.
Yes, I remember that as well as the penalty. I would have to watch the game again to see if it persisted, but I remember during the Pitt game, he was on the ground a lot. This is something that happened a lot at Clemson and a ton during preseason. I'm not sure if it's just something that is going to be par for the course with him, but he certainly was able to be pretty dominant at Clemson despite this weird part of the package with him. I was wondering if it affects his PFF score, because I thought he - at least on casual viewing - played better than his grade vs Pitt and also vs Jax. He certainly has things to clean up, but he didn't stick out like Hopkins has at times this season, and I noticed him blowing open a hole on one of Mixon's nice runs as well.
