Spoiler: Reminds me of… "The system is terrible," Watt said. "Do they watch a lot of film? Sure, great. Do they know everybody’s assignments? Do they know exactly what’s supposed to happen? Do they know how they’re waiting and how they’re supposed to do different things? No. It’s just a terrible system, and the fact that they have the ability to affect not only what the public thinks about players, but literally are affecting voting for awards, how players contracts are being handled … it’s really pretty scary and crazy that they’ve gotten that level of power." Watt also took issue with what he described as PFF's "high and mighty" disposition. "They come from a high and mighty place. And they speak like they know everything there is to know about football … as somebody who’s done it … I’ve literally sat in a meeting with coaches and put the grades side-by-side, from a coach’s grade and from the PFF grade. I’ve done it. And it’s not even remotely close," Watt said.
TBF, some people did sell their tickets to fans from other teams. And sadly it happened A LOT. Houston is / was notorious for fans selling their tix to fans of other teams who are willing to pay a premium (so they can get those Trill Burgers!) That being said, I totally get it. You pay $2,400 total for 2 lower bowl tickets. You sell 4 games ($300 per ticket) & your season tickets are paid for, Plus you get to go to other 5 games.
I wish we had another service to grade players. We don't necessarily know how accurate PFF is. I will venture to guess that they are more accurate than the perceptions of most fans, including myself.
I have a sneaking suspicion that our OL will again be atrocious this season. CJ will likely have to decide if he wants to continue to play under such a system or if he's better off on a team that believes in OL play.
Even JJ agrees...PFF isn't all that (sht) and should be taken with a grain of salt (shouldn't be taken with any seriousness).
Yea, he's special. I remember CJ saying during the 23' summer camp that Stingley was the best player on the team.
Indeed. I remember them showing clips of him as a true freshman 17/18 yrs old locking down Justin Jefferson and Chase in practice . Freakish athlete.
