pff top players from week 10

Defensive interior: Earl Mitchell, Miami Dolphins, 85.8

Miami got DT Earl Mitchell back from injury this week, and he showed them just what they had been missing during his time in the trainer’s room with one of the best games of his career. Mitchell made three defensive stops, including one absolutely crushing play against the run where he bulldozed through the line and killed the run deep in the backfield while Miami was backed up against its own goal line.

Defensive interior: Ndamukong Suh, Miami Dolphins, 85.6

Mitchell is joined on the team of the week by his teammate, Ndamukong Suh, which won’t surprise anybody that was watching the game. Suh posted a sack, hit, and two hurries, as well as a pair of batted passes and four defensive stops. Suh was at his disruptive best in this game and made a significant impact against both the run and pass.

Quarterback: Ryan Tannehill, Miami Dolphins, 90.0

Ryan Tannehill made one of the throws of the season this week against the San Diego Chargers, and it was a big reason for his passer rating under pressure coming in at a ludicrous 137.5—more than 10.0 points higher than when he wasn’t under duress. Either way, Tannehill’s performance this week was excellent, and it marked his best game of the season since Week 2. This has been far from a vintage year for the Miami QB, but games like this show you there’s a lot of upside still there.

Wide receiver: DeVante Parker, Miami Dolphins, 86.2

Ryan Tannehill wasn’t the only member of the Miami Dolphins’ offense to have a big day, as DeVante Parker—a 2015 first-round pick—had arguably his best game as a pro. Parker caught five of the eight passes thrown his way for 103 yards, with 56 of them coming after the catch as he broke a pair of tackles to gain additional yardage.

Left guard: Rodger Saffold, Los Angeles Rams, 82.8

The overall matchup in this game was between two pretty bad teams, but Roger Saffold was facing a tough New York defensive front and had the best game of his season. He didn’t allow any pressure over 36 pass-blocking snaps—the first game of his season with no pressure—and run blocked well against Jets’ linemen that typically dominate in that area of the game.


last week I said Rams should win this week brutal mismatches and a rookie qb
note to Fisher..congratulations on starting Goff now move Saffold to lt and bench Austin/Kendricks..free Higbee, Hemingway, Thomas and Cooper
