CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Browns averaged 358 yards on offense, averaging 5.8 yards per game Sunday against the Steelers. To give a better picture of how the offense performed, here’s how Pro Football Focus analysts rated the Browns’ attacking players.
(PFF grade on a scale of 0-100, with higher grades indicating better play. PFF explained his degrees as follows: 100-90 elite; 89-85 Pro Bowler; 84-70 starter; 69-60 backup; 59-0 replaceable. In other words, not too different from how we would compare percentages with traditional letter grade at school.)
