QB Brock Purdy Thread

The guy is a bag, his ego overinflated when he came to the NFL, I am talking before the statements he was making, I don't really care about those, good for him for doing what he believes in and there may have been positive changes that came because of his voice, idk but it became more about him than the team early on. It was the Kap show. And not humble at all. We have a damn good qb now who is humble but also has swag. He is a true leader and doesn't make it all about him

another correction is no way Allen is #2 after week 1

One could say the same about Mahomes and Burrow. That's just a list of some dumb guy's FAVORITE QBs.

Yup. I'm not sure the intent, I read it as power rankings so coming into the year you have those guys high, but you adjust based on week 1. I actually think Mahomes was really impressive week 1, his WRs just flat sucked hard.

Josh Allen didn't have a good week 1, imo. D Jones got completely owned. and is ahead of Brock
Seriously?

Kap..he shined at UNR, probably should have just stopped there lol
Jimmy, maybe, had the 9ers not shat it away in 7 mins with time clock disaster. But doesn't really have "IT"
The only way Brock doesn't get an SB very soon is because of failures around him or injury. Protect that guy like gold.

Sorry you didnt enjoy the fact that he led the 49ers to a 4-2 playoff record.

Explain....and if you somehow bring Jimmy into this argument, I wont be responding because its idiotic.

Sorry you didnt enjoy the fact that he led the 49ers to a 4-2 playoff record.

Did I say that Jimmy should have quit football after Eastern Illinois? I also dont believe he "led the 49ers" to anything other than wanting a better QB.

Faithful saying "the irony is off the charts" is like Lizzo calling her backup dancers "too fat".

Purdy is better than Allen. Allen is looking overrated, he panics and throws the ball up for grabs. He has below average decision making and processing speed. It takes much more than arm strength and being 6'5" to be a great qb. Why would you want a guy who turns it over four times? Not even Jimmy had four in one game that I can recall.

And that's the thing. Josh Allen was almost the prototype coming out of college in terms of size, arm strength, and running ability. Maybe not the prototype because he doesn't have Lamar Jackson/Michael Vick/Justin Fields/Anthony Richardson speed. But the size, arm strength, and what he can do with his feet and legs, like a bigger stronger Aaron Rodgers.

But, I fully expected him to bust because he played awful against better competition in college and completed a low percentage of his passes.

That he ascended into being one of the best in the league is credit to an obviously tremendous work ethic and desire to simply not fail.

But guys with great God given ability oft times fall back on that first and foremost more so than proper mechanics or playing smart. Because it's suited them well at every level of football and still can in the NFL. But they can also get burned by it more often in the NFL. Throwing 40 plus yards flat footed and off balance is impressive. It also probably doesn't have the highest rate of success.

Give me a guy like Purdy over a guy who's heady over a guy who's the prototype but does some boneheaded things.

That's not to say Purdy is already better than Josh Allen. Just a general statement. Obviously, if you can have a heady/smart guy who's the prototype than you have pretty much a Hall of Famer.
I agree 100%. The kid just has the ability to read the field and make good decisions. Brings a calmness that you can't teach which is a perfect fit for Kyle's type of Offense. Fun to watch. Can't wait to see where this story goes. I've been a fan since the 70's and was lucky to watch Montana & Young for 15-18 yrs. Had the feeling every year could be a SB run. I get the same feeling watching Purdy play. The D isn't to bad either!!!!!!!!
Go Niners!!!!!!!

There's a huge difference between one QB being the driving force behind wins and one being along for the ride. Everyone knows this.

If that ranking was decent and a few QBs should be moved up/down two or three spots, no one would care. But because it's so stupid, someone linked it and now we know what the 33rd Team is.

For a guy with so much physical talent and amount of NFL experience, it is fair to say that, at best, Allen is horribly inconsistent. He has not learned to play the game the way he must if the Bills are to win a ring.
Yea his cannon arm doesn't help much if he keeps throwing Int's. 2 bombs to the wrong team and the same DB.

Bill Walsh explained why he always had a deep shot scripted into his first 15 plays for the threat not the actual yardage. The threat of going deep effects how a defense is called. Even if it fails the threat of another one exists. He did this with Joe Montana. Joe's arm is not as good as Purdy's. Walsh's primary tenet of his offense was pressure. Keep the ball moving forward and stressing every defender. A steady diet of 50 yard bombs will not do that. Yes it will stress the CB,FS and maybe the SS..but it lets the DL and LB off the hook...in fact it helps both of them.

Plus there is 3rd down pressure.You can't miss to many bombs or you loose the pressure of 3rd and short. We all know what 3rd and long does to a DL. That is just a bad spot to be in with regularity. It does not stress a defense, it helps them immensely.

It is easy to argue there is a balance to having a deep threat and still having an acceptable chance of completion.

I think Shanny 2.0 and Purdy do this well, Purdy is ready and eager to attack the back of the defense. His bread and butter so far has been chunk plays. Shanny puts defenders in a constant state of pull and tug. Come forward for a run? Come forward and it was play action? Cross the field for a screen? 30 yarder by Purdy? They do a good job of moving the defense around and not letting them back up with comfort or come down hill with comfort.
Walsh always scripted 15 or so plays to get a line on how a Defense will react and adjustments they made. After that he would attack their weaknesses. He would refer to Boxing a lot punch and counter punch. Walsh was ahead of the game to bad the pressure got to him. Great coach. I'm glad I got to watch him bring the Niners into a Powerhouse in the 80's.
Gotta say this Purdy led offense gave me flashbacks to the late 80s and early 90s when we all expected a touchdown on the first drive of the game. Hope it continues.
