Malachi Toney is in first after last week's voting, but this week's votes are worth more! Can Drew Mestemaker climb up the fan vote leaderboard? hopefuls.heisman.com/ (I honestly think I'm going to vote for Michael Scott every day this week) #HeismanHopefuls #HeismanFanVote

Important reminder PFF grades do not represent rigorous statistical thinking when applied to football data.
Important reminder What the PFF grade measures is the part of the play the QB actually controls — the read, the decision, the throw. Not the result that lands in the box score. pff.com/news/nfl-caleb-willi…
