And our "underrated superstar" was worse with a team-worst 29.4 grade.
I was watching Redzone, but remember the commentators saying Greenlaw was matched up against Kamara majority of the game. Not sure how that happens, when the BEST LB IN THE LEAGUE is on our team.
I don't recall them saying that, but I'll take your word that they did. I wasn't paying a ton of attention in this one, I will admit, but I definitely saw Warner covering Kamara several times - admittedly getting beaten badly on the TD.
I never said Warner was the best LB in the league, just that he's a very good player and a guy we should try to keep. I also like Greenlaw. Neither of them played particularly well on Sunday, but that doesn't mean they aren't good. Only someone who is being deliberately daft would cherry-pick a single bad game and extrapolate from that. (Hint, hint.)
Btw, I feel compelled to note that PFF loves Aiyuk and is somewhat lukewarm on Hamler to date. Again, I think both those guys can be really good players in this league, but no doubt which has the leg up right now. Aiyuk has shown every sign of becoming an impact receiver to date. Really excited for next year when we can (hopefully) get Kittle, Aiyuk, and Samuel on the field together. Maybe even with Hurd....
I just wouldn't want anything to do with whatever top 5 LB money looks like against the cap. Especially your LB doesn't stand a chance against the Kamaras of the world. Now, Greenlaw ,who's hardly a known name in football, is probably going to get your average starter money. I don't like PFF's rating system, but from what I saw on RZ, Warner did not look like a **12-15 million (guessing) dollar LB.
I'm not sure how good of a receiver Aiyuk is just yet, but I cannot deny he certainly deserves the nickname YAC. He fights for every yard, which is not oft seen anymore. My question with Aiyuk is can he make contested catches? I don't know why the Broncos aren't getting KJ deep more. Bronco fans believe both him and Jeudy are always open. I want to see Fant get less targets, so Hamler can finally show out.
