I see it more often during the season. "PFF rated [name here] this week with a [high grade]" Responses, "Awesome I knew he was a good player."
Then next week, "PFF rated [name here] with a [low grade]." Responses, "PFF is BS and biased. No one should take PFF seriously."
It's the same sort of thing you often see with power rankings. Bengals ranked higher, "Great ranking they know what the Bengals are capable of." Bengals ranked lower than expected, "BS ranking the media is just biased against the Bengals." :)
Anyway sorry for derailing. I'll leave it at that.
Yeah, I agree, That definitely happens.
But PFF also has certain ratings that are based formulas using measurable stats. I know I have cited those before to support a position and people called me a hypocrite. I actually understand the value of the stats that PFF keeps track of and some of theri metrics based on measurable stats. I just don't have any faith in their individual player ratings that are based on subjective ratings.
