Back when we had to decide between Joe or Steve, it had crossed my mind wishing we have a guy that has qualities of both guys. It looks like we finally have one in Brock. The calm processing and vision of Joe with the mobility of Steve, mixed in the moxie of Garcia. Altogether we have a guy that can make the right decisions most of the time every game, maximizing Kyle's offense.

Agree 💯%, and I just have to comment on Brock's arm strength. Those three deep throws were on target and were on flat trajectories. I really think folks are underrating Brock's arm strength. He's not even (in my opinion) using 💯% of his arm to get it to (for example) the Aiyuk and Jauan passes. To me, it felt like he was using about 75% and the touch, timing and anticipation did the rest. When throwing those deep passes, he's not taking a pitcher's heave and taking a running start like a javelin throw. He's just easily throwing it with a good solid base and a nice arm throwing motion, and nothing is being stressed to the limit, in my opinion.

One other QB that hasn't thrown interceptions yet this year is CJ Stroud. Guess who is his offensive coordinator? Bobby Slowik, Purdy's old passing coach.

My check on arm strength is when the guy goes on the run and makes the throw, if it gets there timely further downfield, he's all good.

Brock Purdy can throw from any platform, any arm slot and drop dimes while on the move

Brock should have waited until he was near the sideline to make that throw, and make Kittle jump high to high point that catch.

Jimmy's got last year's 6-11 raider team, to .500 last night. Not a bad job for a *supposedly* just another guy kind of QB.

They are 2-3. That's not .500

Jordan Love had a much bigger impact in getting the Raiders the win.

Right, it's .400

Looks like pro football ref is a tad late on updating their stats.

JG missed a game so JG is .500 and the team is .400, BP is 1.000

Of course, Purdy's demeanor changes once he gets on the football field. Kittle was asked if having the quarterback in the huddle is like going into battle with your little brother. "You know what? If you would have asked me this question a year ago, I would have said, 'Yes,'" Kittle responded. "Now, no, it doesn't. I feel like I'm with a lethal killer in my huddle. ... He's like a lethal killer. He really is. "

He's like Steph and Klay, seem like really nice easy going guys but they're ultra competitive and hate losing more than they enjoy winning.

Watching The Pat McAfee show, love this show now, anyway Rodgers just basically clowned on Orlovsky for what he said about Mac Jones being able to do what Brock is doing. He's a fan of Brock, I used to think Rodgers was an ass, but he seems like a cool guy. Maybe his cockyness is just on the field, much respect to him, and quick recovery.
