QB Brock Purdy Thread

Smart. He needs to keep the Mr Irrelevant story viral to get calls from the refs in the playoffs. A good PFF grade is part of the plan.

Purdy is rolling out before McG is beat. I'm not sure what justification Purdy has for spinning away from nobody when stepping up in the pocket would buy him just as much time. His throw against Arizona shows that he doesn't need to roll out to make that throw.

Sorry. Already told you we won't agree. The still is misleading as it doesn't depict Crosby's ongoing movement toward Purdy but just captures a moment in time. McG is already beat at the point of the still and being pushed toward the QB. About a tenth of a second after that still, Crosby is running free.

Not arguing "tendencies," but that was great awareness and movement that resulted in a TD. Good play there.

purdy's forumla is this...

1. if protection holds do whatever kyle tells you
2. if protection doesn't hold, improvise!

a winning formula so far!

This is what I like about Brock. Delivers an accurate, on time throw, in the face of pressure. And he can do it on the move also.

Back to arguing about whether or not a play that resulted in a TD was a "good play" or not. I swear. it just never ends. To the surprise of no one it is usually the same sub set of posters who get these things started. If it's not about Trey it doesn't play I guess.

he did leave early,, but 69's history was part of the reason.. But i still think he wasn't going to go JJ's ways no matter what

I highly doubt that 69's history is the reason he began rolling to his left.

FWIW, Spencer Burford's PP grade is MUCH lower than Mc's slightly above-average PP rating. So, maybe we should consider #74 as a reason he rolls left instead of our favorite whipping boy.

Not the argument at all lol. It's about if there was pressure and if he needed to leave the pocket when he did. It's a legit question and only turns bad when someone that doesn't agree takes it too personally. That's always the problem in these threads; especially QB threads, nobody can have conversations that involves criticism or even perceived criticism. Strange because I thought forums is for discussing everything; didn't know there's a caveat of no criticism allowed. Not speaking to you in particular 81, or anyone in particular; just generally speaking from seeing this for years in here and I'm sure it will never change 😂

Nah. at :14 of that video, McG is beat and Maxx is heading toward BCB on that side. BCB moves away from the pressure as you can see at :15. If he breaks .25 seconds later, this play doesn't happen.

McG is not beat until Purdy drifts backwards changing the angle of Crosby's rush. It's not on the tackle if the QB moves further back like that, because the tackle is protecting the area where he anticipates the QB to be.

Nope. Maxx is moving toward BCB on McGs shoulder when BCB moves. In under .25 seconds, BCB moves away from the man bearing down on him and later makes a huge play. He did not break early at all.

It all happens in under a second (half second) in any event, so even if you think he broke early on this play, we are talking about less than 1/2 a second difference.

If you go to about 15 seconds into the video, Crosby is still inside of McG while Purdy has his back turned to the defense. If Purdy just takes a step up, there isn't really an angle for Crosby, similar to the other play I posted.

Do we really have to spend another four pages running down a single play that resulted in a touchdown? SHEEESH

If he plays like this throughout the playoffs, It'll be hard for anyone to beat us.

"Consistency" Is key.

How is Purdy faired in bad/rainy weather in college?

Concerned about rain being equalizer this Sat…

But we haven't heard whether his big old fellow was hanging more to the left or to the right when he passed. We need all the detail

The length of the discussion has nothing to do with the severity of the criticism and more to do with some posters demanding a mile long paper trail of evidence and examples (which they'll then nitpick to absurdity) to justify even the mildest of criticisms.
