Not sure how they compile their stats but Ramsey when guarding Hopkins (arguably the best WR in the league) held him to like 4/30 or something

Not sure how that drops him to 89th but ooooook lol

PFF ratings are nebulous at best for certain positions. 

Probably their most nonsensical ratings stem from DBs who play in zone coverage. 
The Jags played zone defense or a combo of zone/man almost that entire game. 
Andy Reid used Tyreek Hill to clear out Ramsey's quarter of the field early on because he new Ramsey was manned up on him while the other DBs were playing zone. He'd then send Kelce or Watkins to the zone that Ramsey vacated for a completion. 
PFF likely grades this as a strike against Ramsey for vacating his quadrant of zone coverage. (though he was just following his assignment)
Once Tyreek left the game Ramsey indeed was in zone coverage most of the time and only gave up two plays of any consequence during that portion of the game. PFF just sucks at rating these coverages for some reason. 

Anyway, anyone with half a brain can rewatch the game and see Ramsey gave up very little besides the push off TD Watkins got by with. He didn't play poorly in that contest.
