PFF tends to be right more than it's wrong.   PFF is not perfect, but it's a reasonable measure of player performance (or at least a good supplement).  It's also helpful for positions where there are few quality stats.

Good news for DJ. Another year of slack.

Not sure in what universe DJ would consider this good news:


Weakest: New York Giants
Even after earning the worst offensive line grade of any team in 2023, the Giants did very little to improve their unit this offseason. The group recorded a 44.6 PFF grade last year and will hope a fully healthy Andrew Thomas and the additions of guard Jon Runyan (56.5 PFF grade in 2023) and tackle Jermaine Eluemunor (68.7) can provide a boost.


DJ's suffered more than his fair share of injuries thanks to a long series of poor O-line protection.  Hell, last year, three quarterbacks started for NYG and three QB were injured playing behind that line

The Eagles are playing the Packers in Brazil following the Ravens-Chiefs openung night so it won't be the Eagles

The third period came, the Canes showed up to play, a bunch of individuals dressed as Rangers took the ice but certainly didn't look like hockey players.

What a departure from what we've seen in the playoffs thus far.

The Canes are back in this thing. Back to Raleigh everyone goes for Wednesday. Well, to their credit, at least they are trying to shrug the paper part of the champion moniker they've been bestowed.

Peace.

It's just shocking that they came out and played like this with a chance to close it out at home.

Quote from: Messiah717 on May 13, 2024, 10:02:13 PMThey looked like they did in the NJ series last year and the Tampa series the year before. 

Yup. Those were 2-0 and this was 3-0 but you're right, it's the exact same pattern. Start the series off well, and then fold like an accordion.

I feel like if we're going to win this series it needs to be the next game. I don't see us winning game 7 if we go into that game having lost three in a row. Carolina will have a stranglehold on us mentally if that happens, and our vets are not clutch, winning players. It needs to happen in the next game or I don't see it happening.

I'm telling you right now: if the Rangers lose this series after being up 3-0 it will be an embarrassment of beyond epic proportions, the stench of which will carry over into future seasons. They will be the laughingstock of the rest of the league if they do that.
