And that is why shanahan went conservative in the game
plan and tried to just grind this out. If we would of kept trying to force passes, it was only a matter of time until Purdy made a mistake because of how well the defense was playing.
It's very very hard for any qb to have great success under a lot of pressure like that. Very hard
Even the great coaches know when to hide their qbs, but can't hide em too long tho.
Shanahan has spent every postseason in his HC career trying to hide his QB, so he should be pretty good at it by now.
Great point! Brock can hide behind a good strong run game for a bit, but he will have to play peek-a-boo with the pass and pass occasionally to prevent the Eagles from keying on the run. I'll also just add that Brock's mobility will be tremendously helpful in avoiding sacks and negative pass yardage. At this point in time, Brock should be able to operate with full confidence and efficiency - at least, I would think, 100% of the basic bread and butter passes, and 25% of the rest of the intermediate and advanced passing concepts. Each week he should get better and better at this offense.
