Overview

• On The Pat McAfee Show, J.J. Watt said PFF’s player grading "sucks," called the number "completely made up," and urged the outlet to stop publishing it.
• Chris Long blasted NBC’s Sunday Night Football graphic that listed Patrick Mahomes as the No. 13 quarterback and demanded PFF grades be taken off television.
• The criticism followed NBC’s Chiefs–Lions broadcast that showed PFF rankings, with Chiefs defensive tackle Derrick Nnadi cited as 191st among eligible players.
• Watt acknowledged PFF offers useful film and data tools but argued graders cannot know players’ assignments or reliably evaluate from television copies.
• Cris Collinsworth has held a stake in PFF since 2014, and the company’s grades have been featured during Sunday Night Football presentations.
