QB Brock Purdy Thread

Were they deep thrown balls or short to medium thrown balls with the YAC included?

He did lead the NFL in Air Yards per attempt.

And PFF:
Brock Purdy was a deep-ball specialist in 2023: He finished first in positive EPA rate and threw for 12 touchdowns and 38 first downs on deep throws while recording 19 big-time time throws to only three turnover-worthy plays.

I will try this again, even though i've already explained it and CM also nailed it in the post you replied to just a few up from here.

PFF's version of deep ball passing is passes that traveled 20+ yards in the air (from the LoS).

The post you are linking here from FantasyPros has a bunch of different numbers in the chart. It includes air yards, however the passing interval numbers (10+, 20+, 30+, 40+, and 50+ yard passes) include yards after catch. You can verify this if you like (I did).

The reason Brock lead in AirY/A is because he dominated in the intermediate range of the field in our offense. He was exceptionally efficient in this area. CM explained this very well, and I have tried to already in the past.

So Brock throws good short to medium passes to All Pro players who then proceed to break tackles and make him lock good as YAC is included in the analysis of wether a pass is short, medium or deep.

What is the evidence that he wasn't at the top for passes that traveled over 30 or 40 yards?

What is the evidence that he was? People don't track these numbers as far as I'm aware. People properly evaluating QB's look at film in the first place.

i can however tell you he wasn't at the top of passes that traveled 50 air yards because he completed zero of them in 2023.

Where was Brock rated with passes when the secondary was back defending in 3rd and 8 or longer? I reckon Brock got picked off a lot in those circumstances.

Relative to the rest of the market I think that deal would be a good one for both sides, tbh. Brock doesn't illicit ooh's and ahhh's from the fans with his physical traits but he is a very good quarterback. He isn't any worse than Jalen Hurts and Philly seems to be doing just fine. SF management needs to focus on a lot of things, but finding a new QB isn't one of them.

You really don't understand statistics

He was on his nuts for a couple years. Talked about what a smart deal the Giants made.
