Bengals PFF Grades - Week 1
Posted: Tue Sep 13, 2022 10:23 am
I don't have the time to hit everybody right now, but I'll give some highlights of the PFF Grades after week one's disaster of a start.
Joe Burrow started with a 53.7. Not surprising and actually higher than I expected after all of those turnovers.
Here's the good. We'll say 65 and up because that's about where PFF changes colors from Yellow to Green.
Offense
Tee Higgins - 69.5
Ja'Marr Chase - 74.5
Ted Karras - 68.0 (76.5 for Pass Blocking)
Alex Cappa - 69.3 (72.7 for Pass Blocking)
Defense
Mike Hilton - 72.6
Chidobe Awuzie - 65.7
Eli Apple - 70.6
Tre Flowers - 92.0 (Only five snaps)
Jessie Bates - 69.9
Logan Wilson - 86.7
Germaine Pratt - 73.0
Markus Bailey - 71.3 (Only two snaps)
Josh Tupou - 69.7
BJ Hill - 64.9 (I'm rounding)
DJ Reader - 88.4
Trey Hendrickson - 82.7
A couple notes
Cordell Volson graded about as badly as he looked - 54.2 overall and 44.3 for pass blocking. It was his first start and he was going against some damn good pass rushers, so I'll give him a pass if he shows up and looks better next week.
Jonah was 62.5 overall and La'el was 58.6 overall.
We need better. Clearly....
