Here's what you're ignoring, those guys were on terrible teams, particularly Aikman and the Cowboys. None of those examples really apply.
We saw what Purdy was able to do as a 7th round rookie coming off the bench. That at minimum is the standard that Lance should be held to going into his third season on an NFL roster.
We don't even have the complete roster of next year's team. Alot of time between now and then to fill the roster in.
As we saw between 2019 and 2020, every single year can be different. No imaginary "standards" with Purdy taking over this well-oiled machine mid-year,...and how it applies INSTANTLY to next year. Entertain yourself with it,...but all of that stuff is null and void,...and these things can wait till we actually have a full roster intact and have played a couple games.
We've already seen his floor. Checkmark.
Now,...he needs to play well and he needs to improve game by game. That is the only standard for now.
I agree entirely with Phoenix49er.
Purdy has set the standard.
Lance is a 3rd Pick in the draft. He should have come out balling and won everything from the get go. He did not. Instead he played like the last pick in the draft was expected to and Purdy played like he was the 3rd pick.
Lance is way below par and had everything to prove. I hope for his sake he can. But I doubt it. He doesn't have it in him from what I have seen. It is the fight in the dawg that is what is important rather than the dawg in the fight.
I understand that you haven't been watching football for that long, but not every top pick is gonna be Mahommes. There's a long list of QBs that took a couple years to develop. Some never do, but we need more time with Lance to see if he can or can't. You deciding that quickly he's a bust either means your a football savant and should be working for an NFL team, or just a hot take troll.
Just because I have only been on the Webzone for 8 years does not mean I have only been watching football for that long. Stop making things personal and stop making dumb assumptions. Stick to football instead of ad hominem and be a good fellow
Says the guy that just s**t posts to get reactions out of people.
So if you've been a fan before Jeryd Hayne joined, how come you asked so many football questions when you first joined? How was it you were completely clueless about how the salary cap works? You got plenty of those posts from years back that I can easily pull up.
But let's pretend that was some weird thing of yours where you were just pretending you didn't know...What was the previous team you were a "fan" of? So you either lie about watching football for a long time, or you just became a bandwagon fan. There's posts of yours saying when you first joined that you became a niner fan bc of Hayne...
