Guards: Andrew Donnal, Rams (-7.9) and Brandon Scherff, Redskins (-4.9)

Donnal allowed two hits and two hurries, so his pass blocking wasn’t that great. His run defense was even worse. He surrendered five run stops and even more disruptive plays that ruined a run design for the Rams. He finished with a -5.7 run block grade, the worst in the league. Scherff was mostly average when run blocking, surrendering a few negative plays, but he also had a few positive blocks, too. It was his pass blocking that put him on this team. Two hits, five hurries, and he was beaten an additional time. Tough day for him against a solid Patriots’ defense

It just seemed like Foles had no time to throw during the game. I'd add that Garrett Reynold was not up to the task either. I understand it wasn't his natural position, but there were so many key plays, especially one which led to the DE opposite him to get that tackle on Tavon Austin during a very key moment during the second to last drive of the 4th quarter. I'm also still a little confused by Gurley's decision to cutback during overtime, which caused us to loss about 5 yards on that play. Had he just run forward, at worst it would've been no gain and best, maybe a couple hard fought yards.

Well, the Scherff part makes me feel good. I wanted the kid. Gotta expect Donnal to be a mess.

It's funny PFF grades them as the worst but Fisher said in his Monday presser that he would have given Donnal a game ball for his performance if we'd have won. Which does this reflect more negatively on PFF or Fisher
