Do not blame T.J. Watt’s Pro Football Focus ranking on the site’s analytics

Two weeks ago one of the BTSC faithful complained about T.J. Watt’s Pro Football Focus rankings being low. It is the same line that has been bandied about the BTSC boards for a long time. The controversial site does not list its proprietary analysis on grading plays and players or how it assigns grades to individual plays. The secrecy brings out the ire of BTSC fans when PFF is brought up in discussions of its usefulness. Also, the accuracy of how they judge players is also questioned even though the plays go through a four-tiered analysis, when necessary.
