The thing on Brady, it's not so much his ability to throw a football, it's who he was as a man, as a leader. If you watch the Jordan doc, Jordan was in your stuff every single day you either did it to his standard or he would ride you daily about it. Brady same way. That's what leadership is. Brock has some of the leadership traits.

It's one thing to say that Purdy is processing quickly, making proper pre and post snap decisions, getting the ball to his playmakers, maneuvering within the pocket, etc. etc - which he is obviously doing at a very high level right now. I'm very happy that he's doing this at this level, at his age, and I can see the improvements from last year to this year which means he's only taking steps in the right direction.

Calling him a generational talent, and that term 'elite?' No way I can say that now.....and maybe I'll never truly say it. My definition regarding to those terms probably differs from most. Those type of guys are the ones who can deliver in the clutch. 1:30 left in the game, down by 4+. Can he deliver against a top tiered opponent? A guy who has no running game, no explosive targets, and is the absolute focal point for every defense he faces....and can still carry his team. A guy whose pocket collapses and he's getting a beating...can he still stand strong in the teeth of that pass rush and not flinch? A guy who raises his game in the bigger games - division games on the line, playoffs, Super Bowls. Elite is Joe Montana. He didn't build that case on trashing the Falcons for 400 yards and 4 TD's in some week 7 game. That made him an excellent QB. He built his legacy against the Cowboys and Bengals in two of the most famous drives in NFL history. He built his legacy against the Eagles in 1989 - probably the best game I've ever seen a QB play.

I'm NOT saying Purdy can't do stuff like this.....I have yet to see it on a consistent basis, because there simply hasn't been the body of work for me to come to that conclusion. I hope he is the guy.

I don't want Purdy down in games or playing with lesser talent than the opposition. I want him playing in situations just as he is now. This means we've put a great team around him. I don't want that to change and I don't want Purdy having to carry a bunch of bums

Very well said..
I mean what should we do, strip the team down to nothing and see how he does!!?? Lol
I don't care who the quarterback is, Mahomes, Montana, Brady, etc. you need talent around you to perform well.

"No way I'm calling Brock elite until he proves he can deliver with only three Olinemen blocking and one arm tied behind his back"

what is ironic is that there is a significant segment of our fan base that would rather see him tip a lap dancer than something like this
