He said coaches should use Trent's film from last Sunday as an example to show young tackles how to play the position.
Yet, PFF had Trent very close to 0. I believe it was a negative score but I can't remember for certain.

Hour 2 from 9-22-15
He did ding Corey on some pass plays but credited him with getting to the second level and making the block that sprung some of the biggest runs of the game.
If PFF is that wrong about Trent's play, then it, they, he, whatever, could be and probably is wrong about others.
I trust Cooley's analysis more than . . .
Not sure what goes in the blank there. |
PFF is pretty good with their rankings. I'm not a scout so I wouldn't know enough to agree or disagree on any specific point but at the end of last year they had the Redskins OL as a top 10 OL in the league. Given their performance in the following 2 games, I'd say they were on target. They typically look at each players performance individually. These aren't high school scouts either, they are mostly guys with NFL OL coaching experience. Not saying they are right, but I wouldn't completely dismiss them either.
