Distance isn't the problem. Velocity is. Brock could get it there, but it would be a high-arcing floater that would likely be picked off (as we saw when he had to press tonight).

Steve Young was bigger, faster and had a hell of an arm. Wondering if you ever watched him play. His knock was he would fail/choke against the cowboys and packers when it counted..
As I said before, Steve Young's real height is 5'10" and he had literally the weakest arm of any QB to ever start in the NFL.
I don't know why this team's fans are so clueless about the team and players from the 80s and 90s. I understand it with the younger fans, but fans who should know better are clueless, and I don't get why.
young didnt have a weak arm, but neither does brock. they're around the same in that department
Do you think Brock is making the throw you're named after?

There's no guarantee we going to blow out teams in the near future with the way our D is playing. These are type of games Brock is going to have to win, and win with his arm.

. Nice on the 50 ..35 yrs here. Will be good times again

Purdy is the least of this team's concerns right about now. Yes he had a few bad picks. But he played decent. Much more concerned with our defense!

The "pUrDy gOt fiGuReD oUT" narrative is weak. Take away the two picks and he's 21/28 with 272 yards. Those picks were atrocious no doubt but those were more on Purdy making ill advised decisions than the Vikings "figuring him out."
I think he needs to slow things down and take what the defense gives him. Honestly maybe take a page out of the Alex Smith book from time to time. Slow, steady, methodical…don't always need to try and throw hero balls.
I'm not worried about Brock. Now if he had two straight games of 15/32 with 140 yards and 2 picks…and was just getting flustered on a consistent basis…I'd be very worried. But that isn't the case.

That throw across his body he short armed to aiyuk was the worst I've ever seen him throw. Aiyuk was only like 8 yards away from him wide open. Brock looked awful tonight

I agree, but he could've made better decisions we all have seen it from him before.

End of the day, is he better than JImmy?
That's all that really matters.
We're assuming Kyle can build a strong roster.
No interest on how good Purdy can be on other teams.

Much BETTER than Jimmy. That's not even a debate.
With that said, this game goes 50% on him (the other 50% goes to Wilks). Two chances for a go ahead TD and likely seal the victory and you throw an INT both times. In excusable. Two weeks in a row now that teams have figured him out. Time to get it fixed or Shanny will start giving him the JimmyG treatment eg keep the ball out of his hand…
