As I understand it a defensive player gets a "win" if he gets past the blocker within 2.5 seconds. I wonder how they scored the plays against the Ravens where the DEs would intentionally hold up on the edge to keep Jackson in the pocket instead of continuing to push upfield to loop around for a sack. Maybe some of our players did not get credited with a "win" on those plays even though they were doing exactly what they were supposed to do.
Yeah those parameters don't seem to mean nearly as much as recording a sack. That would explain why Hendrickson is kind of snubbed here even though he seems to be super disruptive this year. Or maybe Hendrickson just runs kind of hot and cold with his hot plays being really impactful. PFF uses metrics that don't grade him as being all that great, but that has to be flawed imo.
