Cringe lol

Lmao! My girl puts up with a lot.

in reality, all I ever call him is Brock, Purdy, or dirty Purdy.

i make those other comments to one person cause she always calls me gay for him. Hahahah

My friend asked me a question and I am trying my hardest not to be a homer but he asked what are the areas of Quarterbacking that Jimmy is clearly and objectively better than Brock at at least at this point of both of their careers.

The only 3 I could think of was maybe quicker release, maybe throwing with his feet not set, (which is almost a bad thing because of how Brock's feet are tied to his eyes) and definitely QB sneak. It's hard to give the "winner" tag to Jimmy as well when Brock hasn't really lost yet.

Am I being a homer or can anyone else think of any that I haven't considered?

Absolutely nothing.

Jimmy is clearly and objectively better at the sneak. He also has a bit more arm strength. Other than that, not much if anything.

I got nothing..I would have said quicker release however Brock usually sees what Jimmy does not and holds on to the ball to go further down the field accurately. I like Jimmy too however believe at this point Brock is better in all areas.

Well Jimmy is def goat of the qb sneak. Lmao not sure why but he was unstoppable with it.

it's a little hard to answer that question because Brock doesn't even have 10 games yet but I'd say the quick release (Brock still has a really good release) and the whole qb sneak for sure.

Both really good leaders, Brock may get the edge since he's earned the C sooner than Jimmy did here. I think it took going into 2019 for jimmy to win his C.

i think Brock reads the field better, learns from mistakes better, manipulates defenses better, Brock is more mobile etc.

really Brock does everything better or just as well as jimmy did. It's really impressive. Except Brock is much mobile, attacks the whole field accurate overall, and reads the defense better. I think it's also a big deal that Brock learns from his mistakes better and faster.

Yeah, I forgot about that, Jimmy had 56 velocity at the combine and Brock had 52. Good one.

Jimmy will wink and smile at the mike linebacker in coverage in such a way that makes him forget he's even playing a football game so there's that.

Yeah but that's the combine. As pros actually playing - Brock has shown to be in the 55-56. Now it's possible jimmy improved his too but their arms seemed about the same to me. Jimmy just has an amazing release.
Aaron Rodgers trying to mimic what Brock did but with his ACL. Lol would be impressive if he was back by playoffs

He's 39 tho. Idk. Not sure how speedy anything will be but that's a tough injury. Maybe he comes back in time for playoffs so we can beat him

Yeah, idk the history of football players with this injury well but I imagine it isn't good. When it's happened to players like Dominique Wilkins/Kobe Bryant at an older age - it didn't turn out well. I feel like it would be similar to acl injury where it takes time to adjust to it

So the jets don't get the packers firsts because he didn't play 65% of the snaps. Lol

I'd be concerned if he had Shaun hills arm. Lol like you said, If you can meet the minimums, you're good.

If you think that someone who's won a SB MVP title at 43 doesn't have special physical traits...

Brady's specialness is in his heart and mind, not his physical tools, otherwise he would not have been drafted as late as he was.
