Yep. He definitely missed some open plays on Sunday. I still believe its because he is a touch late with everything. Hope the game slows down for him, so he can really show if he has it or doesnt have it.
I don't know, man. That all-22 was UGLY. How slow does the game need to be to see two wide open curls on the same play? Doesn't get any easier than that. And it happened several times. His only successful plays were first read quick outs and play action roll outs to the flat. Not winning many games doing that.
And where will these reps come from? Seems like HIS best shot is with a different team.
Yeah I dont know that his reps will come with our team. In fact, I hope they dont because if they do, that will mean Purdy isnt who we think he is (or hurt).
Its just very obvious it takes a while for the game to slow down for a prospect QB. And 4+ games is not enough for that to have happened. I know it didnt look very good, and I never claimed otherwise. I just think given the circumstances, the over the top reactions are unwarranted. I expect him to be better next week.
Even after three years in the system though? That's the part that's so odd to me. He looked MORE lost than ever before. Would be interesting to be in the film room with Kyle and the QB's.
Being in the same system is not the same thing as getting game reps. The speed of the game is what he needs to adjust to. If Trey looks like he did Sunday all preseason long, then the "he looks more lost than ever before" comment I will be able to buy a little more than I do now. He hasnt played since September and is coming off a bad injury. Lets see how the rest of the preseason shakes out.
Very curious to see how we trot out the QBs in this next game. I think Trey will be better, hopefully he has a little more "eff it" and just guns it.
if he did more of that, he would be just fine. I don't mind him taking chances, but right now he's hesitant to take chances.
Let's see how the rest of the pre season plays out, still a few more weeks. Not a good start but he may still be able to lock down QB2, although seems like he may be behind now.
