@bkaest1@throwthedamball Yes! And I can use a new stat that we launched this season to explain it. So we now have adjusted pass-rush grade which takes into account the situation. Green's adjusted pass-rush grade is 80.2
Since Joe Burrow entered the league, the Bengals and Ravens have played each other 13 times.
In 8 of those games, Joe and Lamar Jackson played and finished the game.
In 5 other games, one of them got hurt or missed the game entirely and we're on the verge of it being 6 games.
QB Rankings for @PFF this week:
⬆️ Purdy jumps to number 1
🤕 Lamar drops out after two missed games
🚀 Stroud the biggest riser
📉Stafford the biggest faller

Lamar Jackson's status is obviously the key thing for Ravens-Bengals this week, but the most important matchup for me is the interior OL vs. Dexter Lawrence.
Have felt since they traded for him that he is good enough to wreck any Ravens gameplan against this interior.
@NCapecciBlt Too small a sample size to know for sure but with Hendrickson's success and the defenses overall success when both are on the field, I kinda think I just wouldn't worry about Green not being as productive if the group as a whole is?
With both Trey Hendrickson and Mike Green on the field this season:
Hendrickson: 24.2% pressure rate
Green: 6.3% pressure rate
Ravens Defense: 50.0% pressure rate
@ColeJacksonFB The only gripe you can have with Hendrickson in that game was the lack of finishing. Which probably has a lot to do with the hand injury
@RavensAtLaw I have my own gripes about the OL but it’s more about the players they went for rather than not investing. Spent on resigning Stanley, adding Simpson, RG and RT were first and second round picks, just traded a second for a C.
@RavensAtLaw Ok, but how are we criticising him for keeping Humphrey this year when it would have been easy to move on, when it has (so far anyway) looked like the right move?
The David Walker breakout is no fluke at this point after beating both Steelers tackles for a sack yesterday. He leads the entire NFL in pass-rush win-rate per @PFF (26.3%)
