I've given up looking for reasoning with these things. They don't make any sense whatsoever to me. Like I said from the very beginning, they don't take into account the match up. Michael Oher for instance held DeMarcus Ware to one sack (and that was really on Bobbie Williams), but earlier he struggled against Trent Cole. Who is the real Michael Oher? What should he be rated? This stuff makes no sense to me except as something the community debates over. Is Oher a good LT that simply struggles with consistency? or is he a mediocre LT that gets lucky sometimes? How do number ratings deal with such things? They can't, which is why I think it's a wash. Was Ware just having a bad day?
Courtney Upshaw was listed as PFF best run stopping3-4 OLB at one point (through week 7
https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2012/10/24/3 2-observations-week-7/, ) I don't see his number ratings moving up past other OLB's. How is that measured? How does EA reflect that? Do they move his block shed and power moves up? What should have been done to reflect that?
