Trevor Penning is PFF’s top graded Saint; Penning is highest graded NFL OT in Week 10

Clearly we are watching completely different plays. No worries I can break it down for you.


The second Carrs back foot of his final drop back hits the turf Penning has already lost the rep.

Again at this point the rep has been lost. Pennings only choice is to try and hold the defender.

Pennings inside hand is around the neck of the defender. Classic holding. Penning himself notices this and immediately throws his hands up in an attempt to not get flagged.

Unfortunately the defender makes a great play on the ball and shoots his hand inside and knocks it away from Carr.

Penning played a good game but he 100% lost this rep. Saying otherwise is just ridiculous.

You say he lost the rep but it sure looks like he's just guiding his guy way behind the play. I've seen other teams do this to our pass rushers on countless plays. There was a perfect pocket for Carr to step up in but he instead chose an abnormally deep drop.
