PFF isn't a formula.
It's subjective grading where they have a person review and grade the game tape.
To act like its anything other than someone's opinion shows you don't understand it
You're right, I don't understand but I'm fairly certain you don't either. These opinions are given by people who don't give a sht either way watching film and deciding if a guy did his job on that play, as opposed to everybody here watching a game where they care about the success of the play and players. To say it's "an opinion" while correct, misses the point. Like recruiting rankings, it's the best measure we have at this point. As I mentioned, a player may grade poorly but still be of more value to a team or the fans than another player.
How about this:
"Memories can deceive, and highlights by their nature miss out on the vast majority of a player’s game, but PFF covers every player on every play of every game to give you the most comprehensive analysis of player performance you can find anywhere.
Because of this, sometimes the grades will show unexpected results. Just because a player isn’t a household name, doesn’t mean he isn’t capable of having an excellent game, or even having an excellent season that is just passing by the notice of most people."
