Actually thought the rushing numbers would help since he's been kinda bad there.

I think the fumbles really hurt his PFF grade and the fact about 4 or 5 of his 15 passes were off target (wind/rain)

Still thought he'd be in the 60s at least.

Edit: Not sure why Conner was so low.

Again, PFF is :trash:, but Conner averaged less than 4 YPC and had a 50% rush success rate. Part of the vagaries of the PFF grading system is that those clock-chewing runs at the end of both halves still count against the total grade, even if they lose yards.

Hicks sucks, play Collins.
When it comes to ILB play in the NFL, being in the right place/coverage, and making the right reads, and tackling well are more important than raw athleticism! It's great if you can have the entire package, but the former beats the latter!

Hicks has played well this season. Yes, he is slow, but all other aspects of his game have been quite good this season!

I wholeheartedly agree.
