Of Purdy's 4 interceptions, the Dolphins one was 4th and 4 from the Dolphins 39, Brock was getting creamed by a blitz, it was contested, picked and tackled down at the 21, for a gain of 18 yards vs an incomplete. That's a positive outcome. The one against the Commanders was on Jennings hip, which he flipped up in the air. The ones against the Chiefs and Raiders were bad passes.
If you look at earned negative pics, that's 2 in 8 games, which would extrapolate to 4 in a season. Not bad, rook.
Not too bad at all. Extremely good awareness for a rookie.
If you watch the other 7th round rookies, or just rookies in general, It was amazing what Brock did. Hopefully he can improve upon it and keep it going.
hopefully, if Lance is here, he has a large improvement too and pushes Purdy as well. If Lance can do that, that'll be an awesome QB room. I feel like right now there is just a large Gap in quality qb play between Brock & Lance/Darnold for them to really force any hard convos.
the scary part is that Lance & Purdy have small samples. So it's difficult to predict which one is the right one. Short term, I think it's easy, long term is the tricky one. I personally would go with Purdy but if Lance can get 20-25 games under his belt (which essentially doubles his game experience through his life) - he could show something he hasn't.
