Greg Cosell said Purdy needs to get back to his pre playoff form. He's been missing open receivers that he rarely missed during the season. Not just on his throws. He's missed seeing guys that were open and thrown to players not as wide open. Is it nerves or are the defenses just getting to him.
I agree. He has been a tad timid compared to what we normally see the last two games. Although, I know there was a play he had Deebo on a cross against detroit near the goal line, but chose to run it because by the time he finished his throw/motion the defender may have been in his face and disrupted it by how he was pushing the o lineman back towards Purdy. Pretty wild instincts to me that I believe he sensed that and ran.
I think the early pressure and interception in the Detroit game changed his clock a bit and he wasn't as patient/rushed on some plays where he actually did have the time. GB played very good defense as well. And now he will face a much better defense than those two. He should expect a Ravens game type of effort from KC defense and just assume pressure, but trust his instincts and still try to kill them lol
I hope we get beast Purdy from snap one!
