McGlinchey appears to be our weakest starter, along with Lenoir.

PFF to agents who know their grades effect paydays

Well done McG. He's been a consistent cornerstone of one of the best o-lines in the league.


You laugh but Ring is correct

I'm laughing at PFFs grades. McGlinchey is f**king trash but you get your rocks off on being the contrarian

He gets shoved around got shoved into JG and had a holding which was an incomplete pass anyway and declined.

He allowed no sacks to Khalil Mack. How is that not a win for McG and the team?

PFF grades are only stupid when they disagree with ppls preconceived notions I have noticed

I don't look at PFF grades. They are no better, or worse, imo, than grades offered by reporters who cover the game.
He's not as bad as claimed. He had some good blocking yesterday with some bad mixed in too. But he makes good blocks sometimes. He's nowhere near as bad as the claims on here. He's a bulldozer run blocker. An inconsistent pass blocker. Who is actually good at times. He will get burned too. But people here over play that a little. Like he gets beat on every play. He actually doesn't.

Lol that is EXACTLY the Mcglinchey I have been seeing every game this year. But PFF says he is playing great.

Being pushed back is not a "lose" situation unless it impacts the play. Such was not the case yesterday.

McGlinchey's biggest problem is that he has picked some very bad times to have a PP breakdown. That shows up in his PFF rating. His 64 rating (slightly below average) is the same as Burford's. Williams is 85. Brendel is 72. Banks is 70. Overall, that is slightly above average.

The fact that McGlinchey is playing next to a rookie who is struggling more than Mc has a negative impact on both of them. As the season progresses, I am going to be watching to see them both bring up their level of PP play.

You can't cherry pick 1 play. Looks like he blocked the wrong guy.

The fact that McGlinchey's first step is with his left foot moving inside to his left, suggests that the blocking call was to ignore the defender and help collapse the inside.

If you look at Mitchell, he kills the timing of the play by taking a hard step to his right and then goes left. Had he hit the left side hard, the defender would not have caught him. As it was, Mitchell never regained his balance after the misstep with the result being a loss.

I appreciate well balanced takes in here. Refreshing change of pace from the 'he's bleeping trash what a bleeper' takes which is 90% of the volume of this thread.
McGlinchey has problems when he has to pass block against a defender with a really quick first step. (He's not alone) He doesn't have really quick feet so when he gets beat with that first step he has a tendency to grab an arm and gets called for holding. Overall I agree that he's not terrible.

Not directed at you but it's amazing how we have completely different standards for OL, Kyle and Jimmy.

Well in fairness, this works the opposite way too.

How many times in this thread have we seen this posted?: "We won the game and that's all that is important."

I would put the over/under at 0.5 and bet on the under.

You just said it and therefore you have beaten yourself at your own game
Bottom line is after seeing what brunskill pulled yesterday and watching mglinctchey all year, there's no way he should be in the rotation and brunskill on the bench.

I don't care how the line has to shuffle get mglinctchey out and brunskill in somewhere.

It will never happen but we can always dream.
