They rounded up for whatever reason. He is not 6-1.

His exact height measured was 72.3 inches, or 6' 1/2" though another source says 6 1/4"

IDK why this matters that much to everyone but whatever. I remember repeatedly this being discussed on TV.

People are confusing his height with Russell Wilson. RW is sub 6' while Drew was 6' 1/2"

Either way Brock is above both so why does this matter again?

I've never questioned the combine measurements. I think they are pretty accurate and have an incentive to be accurate, or they will be discredited and possibly lose the NFL scouting business.

As others have said, humans can grow and shrink, depending on age. So even though I don't question the stats, humans still can make those stats wrong over time by just being a human. As for Brock, the normal human stops growing at around age 25. Brock is still around 23. So we shall see how those stats hold up.

If he had Brocks anticipation, timing, and arm strength, this wouldn't been INT lol

Brock would've let it go before the receiver made the cut. Safety wouldn't have a chance.

NYNiner has moved on from weak arm and Almost INTs to He's Too Short.


He'll Never Be Elite Tall Like Trey

If Trubisky had this offense with these weapons, he would be a clear cut MVP.

Trubisky is the Blaine Gabbert of Christian Ponders.

I expect the winner of Dak and Hurts to lead the MVP talk after this weekend, considering it's a week-to-week league and they're an east coast bias. Purdy's actual shot to win the award will be Xmas. If he can beat arguably the best defense and top 4 team on national TV right before votes are submitted, he'll get it.
He already did that, twice. But the goal posts keep getting moved.

Some QBs have to see it come open. Brock knows how to read the field and KNOWS whether or not it will come open. That's the most powerful QB super power.

Spider sense in the pocket. Spider sense carving defenses.

Stop trying to start drama all the time like some teenager. NY is a fan of Purdy. Saying that Purdy is not tall or doesn't have a cannon for an arm are facts, doesn't mean he's still not a great QB. He's everything we wanted Jimmy to be and some.
