what is pff rank in football

PFF stands for Pro Football Focus, which is a sports analytics company that focuses on thorough analysis of the National Football League (NFL) and NCAA Division-I football in the United States. PFF assigns a grade for every play to each player during a football game, based on context and performance. The grades range from -2 to +2 using half-point increments, and are reviewed at least once, and usually multiple times, using every camera angle available. PFF grades have become synonymous with player performance in both the NFL and college football over the last 10-plus years. PFF grades can be used to rank players and teams, and they help quantify skill so you can compare one player or team to another. PFF grades of 90.0-plus categorize as elite, 80.0-89.9 are good/high quality, 70.0-79.9 fall under average and 69.9 or lower are considered below average.
