Wow a journalist admit he was wrong about Purdy!? The world must be coming to an end. Kudos to this journalist.

I thought he was not good to start the year, but got better as the year progressed. He's good. Someone with advanced stats might have the numbers to show how well each individual was at pass pro. I'd love to have an interior OL where they each are at the top of pass block win% (or whichever stat shows they are good at pass pro). That would go a long way in setting up Brock for success.
I know McGlinchey has been better than usual this year, but if we had a better RT Purdy would actually be able to roll right and throw with his proper mechanics when things went off schedule. Right now he rolls left because the right side collapses and his only safety is behind Trent. But he ends up having to turn back or spin to square his body with a throw and by that time he is usually throwing it away.
I don't think RT has anything to do with him rolling to the left all the time.

Not bad. But Lowell Cohn's apology to Joe Montana was one for the ages. Plus, Joe had to win two more Super Bowls before Cohn let go with his "I was wrong about him" mea culpa.
But that column, which Cohn penned in the late 1980's for the SF Chronicle, has stuck with me through the years. I've never forgotten it. Because it was a real slice of humble pie from a jerk who happened to write about sports. You think Cohn's son is bad? Not hardly. Not compared to dad, who had a much larger following than his son will ever command.
This isn't meant as any disrespect to Grant. It's just an admission that the world is a different place. There weren't many media outlets back in that day. The WWW was PARC wet dream. PRINT was KING. Lowell Cohn had an enormous audience. And people just like me were more than willing to plunk down fifty cents for a Monday morning copy of the Sporting Green, the reporting of Ira Miller, the scribe of Glenn Dickey and the biggest mouth of all, the jerk known as Lowell Cohn.

Ira Miller was great.

Greg Cosell seems to think the book is out now on BCB... he seems to think that when you pressure him he goes backwards or scrambles to his left, and he needs to be "coached out of that" LOL... BCB has a bigger game than that Greggie
with each day this week I'm feeling much more confident that Shanny and the boys are going to school the beagles and move on to the super bowl

Cosell is pretty spot on with his QB evaluations, its certainly what Seattle and Dallas both tried to do, its an issue that Purdy had in college with running out of the pocket instead of stepping up in it. Its what he's going to have to adapt and adjust to. NFL defensive coordinators are great at what they do, great at finding weaknesses in a QB's game, Purdy is going to show that he can improve and overcome it.
