Giving the QB a C and Oline a C-, but the running backs a D is wild.
Half the time the RBs were hit at the LOS, and fell forward for 2 yards. Not sure what Pinnick did to deserve being rated higher than them. Pinnick missed open receivers, had 2 picks, didn't go through his progressions, and when he tucked it an ran, it was usually straight into a defender. I think he needs to settle in and look to pass first. This one read and then tuck it and run style of play won't pan out well at this level. If that's what we're going for, we might as well put Dugger in there. At least he's fast.
That being said, I think there was a lot from Pinnick that is fixable.
The grades don't matter. Flush it and move on. This team will certainly improve over the course of the season, QB included.
