Yeah, PFF is ai garbage. Time to throw was 3.79 seconds but he was running for his life at less than 2 seconds. Plus our DTs were consistently stonewalling double teams. They couldn’t move a feather with a tank.

I have a friend who works for PFF and I just asked him about this and this is what he said. So here's some insight into PFF. 

"They consider it winning the matchup if you block them for more than 2.5 seconds and anything that happens past 3.5 seconds puts no fault on the OL because it is unrealistic to block for that long. Also only one Texas DL had an above average pass rush win % (Watson) and the others had solid win % but nothing crazy. So basically they can have good grades for blocking pretty well because they weren't given any blame to some of the stuff that took a while to happen. Those grades in the tweet also aren't the 5 starters. Moe Jr got that grade on 2 snaps. The 5th starter was Perry who got a 47 grade. And the DL can still get some + grade for getting sacks after which is why Simmons still got a 92 but the OL isn't blames for that stuff. So probably some is on the QB. Faizon had a 40.7 which was the lowest on the team so I'm guessing that's what PFF would say happened. Faizon also had an average time to throw of 3.79 which is very high and pressure to sack rate of 43.5%, also very high"

i would challenge the 3.79 seconds to throw.  Texas was in his lap all game long, and just because you are in front of the player if he pushing you all the way back into the QB, is that really winning?

[Here for the Wins]

Several sacks were because Faizon left the pocket and ran into Simmons who wasn’t really rushing but playing contain.  That’s on the QB not the Oline.  Believe the RBs were graded as atrocious in the pass pro too - actually it was only Bishop.

Sanders grade now sits at 72.1.  Moe only played 2 pass plays.  Perry played 58 and was graded at 47.2 yet not listed here.

The average time to throw is likely solid.  It does not mean you cannot or need not apply context.  When “kept clean” that time is 3.27 seconds.  That’s more time than most take throughout a game when including pressured.  When “under pressured” it was 4.37, also a high number but not as high relatively speaking.  Almost 100% of the time, the under pressure rate results in a higher average time to throw than the kept clean time, at least in my observations.

[Ben Blankenship]

I would agree with that. Just because he is engaged on a block doesn't mean he is winning the block. I would not consider that a win.

Remember when Arch rolled left versus UTEP, then rolled right then threw the pick?  That was probably 7 seconds or more from snap to release.  Thats what would get thrown in that bucket.  It’s not indicative of when pressure happened but actual time from snap to release however that occurs.

Far too nuanced for your average Fan Site Expert, alas!

Burn it down!

Proof once again that PFF is absolute joke in grading.
