then it drops right into the bread basket.

Accuracy and placement > velocity

His touch and accuracy is what makes him good. That and his decision making. I saw Herbert gun short passes on Sunday that were thrown too hard and the receivers dropped them. Brock wasn't great last night but he was good. He only made one bad decision when he threw a pass that could have been intercepted late in the game. OverallI would give him a B+.

If Aiyuk would have caught that TD in the corner of the end zone, would that change your grade?

He threw a couple lasers.

He does what he thinks he needs to to complete the pass, IMO.

No. I'm grading him against other games I've seen him play. It was good but not his best which would be an A.

grade in cap dollars, that is a $50 mil / year aav game imo

week 1 projection - 4 years $200m

a lot of handing off to Mason, and there are a lot of QBs adept at handing off, so i will look for more as we go forward if he wants to get Dak dollars

That's two absolute dimes from Brock that Aiyuk has dropped. The other was when Brock ran around like prime Russell Wilson then found Aiyuk in a very similar position in the end zone as last night. Forgot which game that was, but it happened.

That pass was on a dime. Guys like Pearsall and Cowing, who explode after cuts is going to make Brock so deadly because those in and out cuts (based on defensive reading coverages) is going to be money for Brock.

Nick WRONG gave some lite compliments but threw some shade in there too with it. Typical. He still keeps comparing him to JImmy G. Saying Jimmy went to the Super Bowl. That team was defense driven. This is offense driven. Jimmy never had a year like Brock had last year. Do these guys even watch the games or look at the stats?

What gets me is how accurate on the run/move he is. *INSANELY* accurate.

Yes, it was a tough catch, but $30 million/year guys get paid to catch those. JJ and CeeDee catches those passes.
