I'm not sure what your thought process is here but all we are doing is adding the post-season games into our dataset of regular season games. They were played, why wouldn't you count them? We aren't looking solely at post-season games. Altogether, it is a dataset of 20-ish games. Saying this, of course, gets you out of having to backtrack on your "tracks perfectly" statement.
The final thing I will say is that to point three. People don't use them that way. Many fans will largely use them as biblical. "Eli Apple posted a 52 grade, I told you he was terrible." Well, he didn't play as bad as everyone is thinking. The deep TD he gave up was because of a crosser that took the attention of the middle field safety which allowed the WR to find space down the seam which he wasn't responsible for. Eli didn't so much get "burned" as the offense drew up a great play/the safety was washed out of the play.
That's just an example of a conversation that PFF grades are involved in. We can agree to disagree. I don't care to derail this thread with a PFF argument more than we already have. If you like them, feel free to look at them. I think they are worthless.
God, we don't just get along.
1) Who you got as our top 5 and bottom 5? Like I said, PFF does a pretty good job of IDing the best players, and worst players, within a team structure. The middle is murkier. Comparing across teams (or positions) is murkier. If you disagre, who you gotcas top 5/bottom amongst our starters? Put up or kindly stop yer yapping.
2) Regarding not using post-season. If you want to add it on to the regular season data, that's fine. Sort of. What you cannot do, and what I thought was pretty obvious to (almost) everyone, was substitute the PO grade for the regular season grade & use it to argue the better player. That's silly. 1 game vs 17. Or two.
In terms of the sort of. PO games are games vs higher levels of competition. A player with PO games vs a player without is not quite the same thing. You don't get games vs Carolina to boost things in the POs.
