It's being reported by Maiocco that this is Purdy's team in the locker room, period. It jives with what we saw with O lineman running off the field not helping Trey up at times. Next year won't go well if Purdy is out
Maiocco is legit IMO, he is a homer but he has to be so that the players will talk to him Lol
What he says reflects what I have perceived is that Bick Cock Brock is a natural leader and the team rallies behind him... Lance seems aloof, not much of a leader far as I can see, I don't see guys respond to him like they do to Brock
Purdy was the "perfect storm" in a good way.
The season started with Lance and high hopes. Then Lance is hurt. Hopes drop but Jimmy comes through and hopes are high again. Then Jimmy is hurt and hopes are dashed at a higher level. No QB. No Super Bowl. Then Purdy…. I remember Warner saying as if in great relief, "We have a QB."
The fact Purdy did what he did in such a humble way, was just what the team needed at that time. He was a savior. That whole picture would win over any LR. It isn't that TL wouldn't have support. It was just Purdy was the guy now.
