After a couple passes got batted down early, I thought that was going to be the gameplan for DAL. Luckily that didn't hold up, but it could be something to watch for as teams come up with ways to try and slow down Brock.

I feel like a lot of the all pro/pro bowl selections are made from prime time games. Those are the ones that all the coaches and players actually watch. So our team stuntin like that on Sunday night football was huge. Fred is almost guaranteed to get all pro now. Brock should get at least a pro bowl. I'm glad our boys showed out.

what's exciting is the browns like to try and throw deep, so we should be able to rack up sacks against them with our pass rush. I think we dominate the brownies

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

Like this

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

He's still acting stupid. Look at his comments. Why does he do this?

Because you guys all keep responding to him. Dude is cashing in all the rage baiting he's doing.

Regression to the mean. Defenses will figure him out. Low ceiling. As good as he will ever be.

This game set the record for viewers for SNF, 26 million plus NFL fans saw Brock break it off in Dallas, then sit down on the bench for almost all of the fourth quarter and sip water while our backups held Dallas scoreless for a quarter.
