It's a bit alarming but line has been trash and he isn't helping him self bailing all the time making it worst.
I think his mid arm strength is really starting to show itself this season.

This. I just watched Herbert throw a 25 yard laser in the seam for a TD. Brock hasn't or doesn't seem to be able to make that throw.

Why make him the franchise QB then?

Exactly. We shouldn't.

What's odd is that it seems like he used to be able to. Maybe I'm misremembering his first couple years.

He did. But those were against zone and with zone your WRs or TEs usually get free release so the timing is there. That's why we saw a lot of those passes last year where even though Wrs were not out of their break yet the ball was already out because its timing. It's harder to do that with man.

Well then he's not worth 60M if he can't make the hard throws.

Brock is fine. Going through some struggles against man, but also clearly a QB you can build around. Get the man a better OL, please.

I don't care if they pay him $40m, $60m or $100m a year. It's not my money, and you pay the market rate unless you are rolling the dice with a rookie or a reclamation project. It's just what it is.

We have been preaching this for 2.5 years.

I mean they don't have to pay him anything tho, he still under contract another year, I'd let him ride or die another year and make him sweat it
Is mid arm strength avg arm talent and avg accuracy do not equal franchise guy.

I'd replace him with another purdy from college and keep rolling cheap

Kyle has known this for years it's been pointed to him and he's replied that Brock just needs to make quicker decisions and hit the open receiver

Just an awful coach. I hate Kyle.
He's an overachiever. Played above his head last season. Great kid, made of the right stuff but he's not a 60M QB.

He lost the game yesterday vs Seattle. His brutal interception gift wrapped a TD for a desperate Seattle team.

Purdy could've iced the win but he sailed a ball 5 yard above Deebo's head. Those two plays gave Seattle the win.

Geno Smith wanted that game more.

Just watched the whole game as I wasn't able to earlier. Not understanding this criticism of Purdy. The INT was a deflection. 2nd and 11 throw at the end was not good but it was a one man route which is also a bad play call.

Seattle played a ton of man and we have zero route runners other than Pearsall who barely played. Jennings is Purdy's only reliable WR. Deebo is fat AF and now merely a gadget player (average one at that). CMC is no where near at full strength and Kyle is already back to ignoring Mason.

Poor pass protection and predictable play calling resulting too many 3rd and longs. Yet we still had a chance to win because of steady QB play and Purdy converting on 3rd down with his arm and legs. No idea what game some of you were watching.

Can't wait for Deebo to be off of this roster. Get a good center and more route runners and we will be fine.

Those people are stupid & buy into what the talking heads feed them.
Lombardi just said Niner receivers are dead last in average separation of wide receivers in the entire league. Starting to feel bad for Purdy. Our offense is horrifically slow.

Maybe Deebo will just retire and get bigger and have the great pregnant man promotional boxing match with Jake Paul.

But yes I don't get the criticism of Purdy. Is he perfect? Of course not. The throw to CMC looked like it was forced and probably shouldn't have been made. But yes it was tipped and it's also a bit of an exaggeration to say it was like one of Jimmy G's what was he looking at moments, seeing as how Jimmy G would somehow not even see a linebacker or someone right there to intercept it and it didn't have to worry about being tipped, it would just be picked cleanly.

But that's the game today. Dumbed down fans think every win is because of the quarterback and so is every loss. That sounds a little harsh and of course it doesn't apply to everyone here or elsewhere. But it's probably not that inaccurate either.

Look at how much the gap has narrowed between Patrick Mahomes and the rest of the QB field the past couple of years or so as he's had meh receivers to throw too. Yes he threw 3 touchdown passes today. He also threw 2 picks, including one that ended the game, basically, and has thrown 11 picks this year through10 games.

Purdy is the reason we have any hope whatsoever on offense. And that isn't to say he's been perfect. But with what he's faced this year, he's played his butt off.

Deebo had the lowest expected YAC of any receiver in the NFL this week if I saw it correctly. Can't get open, not doing much when he does. Guess he should "lock in."
