not just you. your eyes are not lying to you on this one.
JG is a middle of the field expert and lived there until he panicked and would throw a late pass to the flat as a bail out or take a sack/make a WTF throw.
Purdy looks like he has better timing within the play all around. He threatens the outside, when he moves its not just happy feet and keeps going through reads even with a defender in his face. He's also way more accurate, there have been so many drops by our receivers where the ball hits both hands.
The biggest tell about this offense is that Kyle hasnt hesitated to put the ball in Purdys hands in clutch situations. I think it was the Raiders where Kyle called 3 straight pass plays within the 5 yard line rather than trying to run it in. Conversely when they were backed up to the endzone Kyle also called pass plays rather than running it from the danger zone. I can guarantee there wont be another 8 total pass attempt play off game this season. Purdy has had some bad passes but not any of the WTF did you see ones.
This is the best part. His bad throw is more if a timing thing. Not throwing to a linebacker lurking in coverage hahaha.
You can correct the timing, the vision thing I'm not sure if it gets better. I mean maybe there's a reason that Jimmy G didn't play at a Div 1 school, no?
