Grade Breakdown
What do these mean?Why 27.0?
Judkins' grade is low because his carries and catches have cost the Browns expected points, and barely a quarter of his runs have kept the offense on schedule. Defenses were a bit easier than average, so that did not explain it. His week 4 game against Pittsburgh was his best at 50.0.
Holding it back
- Averaged -0.175 expected points per touch, 37th of 50 backs, even after adjusting for defenses faced.
- Rushing success rate of 27%, 47th of 50 (the share of carries that kept the offense on schedule).
- Week 2 at TB, 4th and 1: right guard for no gain, costing 2.9 expected points. Week 3 vs CAR, 4th and 1: up the middle for -2 yards, costing 2.4.
