The full breakdown
Kancey's 57.3 grade was weighed down by a rough run defense performance (54 grade), as he repeatedly surrendered his gap and got washed out of plays. Early in the game, he was consistently driven off the ball by double teams (Q1 14:11) and sealed along the front (Q1 13:30, Q2 12:11), and later gave up a crucial conversion on 4th & 1 when he was washed inside (Q4 06:08). His pass rush was mostly quiet (60 grade), though he made a great hustle play disengaging to chase down a completion on the sideline (Q3 06:58). While he displayed his trademark quickness with a swim-move stop in the backfield (Q2 11:29), it wasn't enough to balance out the steady losses in the ground game.
