He reviews the plays so he can see how they were successful or why they weren't. I seem to recall that Jimmy rarely did that. He usually just went back to the bench and stared out at the field. Brock has the ability to keep absorbing knowledge which will only make him better.
I've noticed that too. He's always studying and adapting - it's awesome. I feel like I saw kap and Jimmy rarely do that. I've always wondered why they didn't. Regardless of if it was successful or not, there are always things to review and improve upon. Things to keep an eye out for or someone else to hit if they call the play again based on the defense.
I don't really follow the Patriots so I can't speak with any real knowledge about Mac Jones, but one of the things that seems to be getting overlooked in this Mac Jones could have been Brock argument is that, by a lot of accounts I've heard, Mac Jones is a jerk. If that is true than I'm not sure he would have gotten the same support from the locker room that Brock has, which I think has to be an element in how well the team plays around him. He generates that respect and willingness among the players to buy into the process. Whatever Jimmy's other shortcomings may have been, and there were several, he seems to have had a similar impact on his teammates which is why they played hard for him. Which is something that Brock has as well and can't be discounted as a contributing factor to the team's success.
The other thing I've noticed in regard to the Patriots this year is that the question as to who was driving their success during all of their championship years seems to have been pretty much answered, Belichick was a losing coach when he was with the Browns and has returned to that formula without Brady behind center. McDaniels has been considered a "hot" coaching prospect a couple of times because of how successful the Patriot's offense had been, but he stank it up with Denver and is almost certainly going to fail with the Raiders because Jimmy is no Brady. Not a huge Brady fan, but there's no question the guy could flat out play.

to be fair, jimmy was actually studying on the bench just like purdy, until he got paid.
"Every level that I've played at growing up it's like you get to that level and at first you may think it's a big deal, but then once I start playing it's like, 'Man this is just football,' " Purdy told King. "Youth to high school, high school to college, and college to NFL. Just football. Yes, everyone's better at every level, but at the end of the day, man, you're throwing a football to some guys trying to get open and catch it. And that's really how I look at it. Try to keep it simple. This is a simple game."
When the unicorn speaks as if it's normal to be a unicorn. There are more than half the guys in the league, some of them are starters, that don't process half as good as Purdy right now lol

Preparation is really the key ingredient and i think that is what helps Purdy slow down the game for himself
Half the 49ers starters on offense are at least top 10 at their position in the entire NFL. I don't think Purdy is bothered by all the "he's a system QB on a great team". He actually said he prefers having all these targets, who wouldn't.
Right now, he's playing great football. On another team , with another coach, with avg supporting cast and this and that, waste of time.
Hoping the 49ers win the SB this year. Home field advantage is key.

You can make this argument with any successful QB who has ever played in the NFL. This argument is laughable to me. There is literally not one successful QB who didn't have a good coach and good weapons around him. Yes some QB's have had better situations than others, but it's a team sport, so knocking a guy because he has a good coach and good teammates is in fact, the "waste of time."

Collinsworth said he believes no one in the league processes as quickly and as accurately as BP.

Maybe he was looking at photos of hot chicks. If he was studying plays it obviously didn't help him much since he kept making the same mistakes and not seeing the open receivers downfield.
