Defensive Ratings
- Khalil Mack: +5.6
- Mario Edwards Jr. +5
- Dan Williams: +4.2
- Justin Ellis: +1.9
- Aldon Smith: +1.8
- Ray-Ray Armstrong: +1.7
- Malcolm Smith: +1.5 – Another strong showing by Malcolm. 2 QB hurries and 3 Run Stops; he continues to show versatility and great leadership on the field.
- David Amerson: +.4
- Taylor Mays: +.3
- Neiko Thorpe: 0.0
- Stacy McGee: -.8
- Charles Woodson: -1.3 – I’d like to point out that Woodson almost did it again. Late in the game he got his hands on a deep pass from Roethlisberger, and even though he is Superman, we can’t expect him to catch every single pick that comes his way.
- Curtis Lofton: -1.9
- Denico Autry: -2.2
- DJ Hayden: -5.4 – If Hayden’s confidence was considered to be shaky a few weeks ago, I can’t imagine what he’s feeling like now. He was given the 3rd lowest overall grade of a corner in Week 9. If it’s any consolation at all, Antwon Blake of the Steelers was the worst at -7. Both QB’s found a weakness and attacked often.
