How do you grade a performance last yesterday’s that left everybody feeling satisfied with a win, but dissatisfied in the manner which it happened? Let’s give this the old college try, shall we?
Quarterback: B-
On the one hand, this grade might be rather harsh if you just take a look at the stat line, as Sean Clifford threw for three touchdowns and ran for another. On the other hand, considering how Cliff started out a sizzling 8-for-8 passing and then proceeded to only go 14-for-26 the rest of the game, which included some egregious misfires of open receivers, or not checking down to a wide open running back in the flat, this grade might be just right.
