The full breakdown
Curl recorded a 60.6 grade largely due to playing routine, neutral football on 64 of his 67 snaps. His primary negative came late in the third quarter (Q3 02:19), when he held inside leverage and could not rally to contest Nate Adkins on an eight-yard touchdown pass. However, he mitigated that coverage loss with strong pursuit and open-field tackling, closing down a screen tackle at the eight-yard line (Q3 03:08) and sprinting downfield to save a touchdown on a 39-yard reception (Q4 03:26).
Strengths
- Open-field tackling
- Pursuit effort from depth
Weaknesses
- Flat coverage recovery at the goal line
