I feel for BA - could have been a signature moment

And he knows it too, the look on his face and how he just laid there, man I feel bad for the guy.

But this has been an ongoing thing with him. He is great at catching the ball out in front of his chest or higher. The rest of his catch radius has been very spotty throughout the season. Hope he puts that work in during the off season.

So glad it was us that got Brock and not Seattle somehow to replace Wilson.

Imagine having to play against this for many more years.

We usually associate "off schedule" as run around and check it deep, but for the touchdown pass to Eli, it was off schedule where Brock bought himself time and chucked it short. Not a bad option when it's short throws to players like Deebo, CMC, or Kittle.

Correct.

Anyway, the Catch has to be a TD reception in a game winning drive at the end of the game, so it really can't be "The Catch 4".

They have had many weeks to do so, and Pete Carroll would be the one to have found it this past game. Yeah you will get him a few times, but you are not going to stop all of them.

Good luck taking away a scramble out of the pocket with a huge downfield throw.

This should put the whole "let Brock and Trey compete during the offseason for the starting job" conversation to rest.

There's another term we can start using to get away from adding more sequels to "The Catch", start using "The Throw".

And that right there is the key. You want, in this offense, a QB that can distribute to the playmakers, and then take 1-4 shots at big plays. If you hit on 1/3 or 2/4 you are rolling. Purdy seems to bring this element.

And people are talking like he's at his ceiling. He may be. But he could also still get better with experience, too. Which should scare the hell out of the NFL.
