it didn't say anything about BChippers because that was my point. Riddick is saying Joe was MVP due to those great players, which i showed they weren't drafted as high level talent and that they were average players who became great.

Sometimes it can be held against a QB like our Prior QB, but Joe/Brock are actually leading the way and not following

I feel like riddick isn't saying that Joe was because of those guys. I think he is saying an all time great qb had a great staff/scheme and supporting cast - that it's normal for MVPs to have that.

i think he's saying it's dumb to say that the only reason he is doing well is cause he's carried by great players and scheme/staff.
so Riddick & yourself think it was tough for Joe to carry those players ?

idk how you can think it's not a jab at Joe/Brock

I saw the argument that the tweet came about because of. He is saying nobody ever wins mvp without a strong supporting cast. Riddick was going off about the folks on Get Up saying Purdy shouldn't be an MVP candidate because of his supporting cast. It is %100 not a knock on anyone.

Lol for a second I thought you meant Bryce young, I was like Bro.. you're smoking rocks. Hahahah

yeah, Brock and Steve young are similar size.

at the end of the day, their sizes are perfectly fine. More than adequate. I don't consider Steve young or Brock "short". They're not "tall" either - they're just average, IMO.

both have shown that it's a non issue, so who cares. I feel like the throwing motion is more of an issue than their height, like Herbert's (if he hasn't fixed it).

Agree 💯% and I'll just add that Steve and Brock's arm strength is comparable. I also think both Steve and Brock's arm strength is stronger than Montana's. Good OLine blocking will solve a lot of tipped passes, as long as Brock has good throwing mechanics, and he *does* have good throwing mechanics. One thing I'd like to see is Ilm Manning win a starting job at either Center or one of the guard positions, he's 6'2" which would help Brock see over him. Brendel is 6'4", Bank's is 6'5", Burford is 6'4".

Agree, Purdy's physical characteristics don't awe people like a Trey Lance kind of physique, but also QB is the hardest position to evaluate. It's hard to separate QB's performance from the WR's performance (as an example). So many first round busts are an example of just wrong or incorrect evaluations of QB's.

Purdy is ShanaLynch's get out of jail card when they blew the Trey Lance pick. He's a great combinations of arm accuracy, football IQ, enough speed and athleticism, and of course a great and mature personality. To me he's just a taller, and more mobile Drew Brees.

That's exactly what we want!

Yes sir! Now protect the man with some great OLine draft picks so he can play till his 42!

Hopefully getting passes tipped is an area he'll improve in.

Unfortunately in a 3-step drop this will always be a risk and will happen occasionally i don't see any way around that but its nothing to worry about

I wouldn't worry about it either. Especially when a 6'6" QB leads the league in batted/tipped passes. That stat probably isn't due to a height issue but more about the pass protection and the QB staring down his receivers.

Great point and makes sense, if a good DLineman sees a QB staring at a spot, most likely he'll be able to put his hands up there and make it easier for the DLine to spot when the QB where and when the QB is going to throw.

BOOM!

This one's for every haters
hey this purdy kid is pretty good
Accuracy and ball placement is elite elite.

Lombardi also sees a lot similarities between Joe and Brock - Rhythm, accuracy, athleticism, timing.

All I was trying to say Mike.

Purdy let a few easy ones get away from him today so not ready to make him into this "precision passer" ala Brees just yet.

As far as making timely plays and style of play,.....though....just heard our game @ halftime and you can add Howie Long and Terry Bradshaw to the Joe Montana train 🚂
Another great game today.
