QB Brock Purdy Thread

i would've been happier if Brock had thrown a TD instead of getting us 3 points hopefully that doesn't translate in this year we need TD's not FG's can't rely just yet on this 🦵 Kicker Moody

BP did that on purpose to give Moody the chip shot he so badly needed

Brock is QB1 and should get a couple more live reps imo. It's not like he's a seasoned vet or anything. Then toss Lance/Sam in the rest of the game

I seriously doubt that the third qb will be on the active 46, which will be a declaration in itself. He can not play or continue to play if either of the two in front of him are cleared medically or otherwise not disqualified.

Whoever is going to be the backup should follow Brock with some of the first string targets left in the game.

About three more weeks until the season starts, WOOHOO. Can't wait. That gives the boys some more time to get ready and into position. Can't wait to watch Brock slap the dog sh!t out of Jenny Pickett. I'm so tired of people talking about how good he is when he's bunk af.

the Brock Purdy rule exists now.

agreed; there is a reason for this but the mods won't let us discuss the issue openly on here for good reason

Oh FFS, the reason is because the guy was the last pick in the draft and people are playing the odds that he had a short burst of success when no one had any significant tape on him.

If he keeps playing at a high level and even wins a SB then people will be all over his nuts but until then he has to prove that what we saw last year wasn't a mirage.

And no one is getting fired if Purdy indeed proves out be a stud. Even the 49ers initially were ready to let him go to UDFA before changing their mind late. Just like the Patriots had zero clue that Brady would be anything worthwhile which is why they waited not just until the 6th round to take him, but making him the third player they took in that 6th round.

Sometimes you take a flyer on a guy and it pays off in a huge way. That's just how it goes.

I'm sorry but I have to disagree with you on the bold. There were 8 quarterbacks drafted before Purdy and 261 picks.

If the Steelers—who drafted TWO quarterbacks in that draft—end up with only a meh QB and someone who they instantly cut, when they could've had a franchise QB both times, it's going to be a big black eye on a front office that is known for having a robust drafting process. At least someone is going to be held responsible if it plays out that way.

Everything else I agree with, and of course my statement/example is highly contingent on Purdy turning into the guy and Kenny Pickett fading after a few years, but it's a bold statement I stand behind.

Hopefully the Injury 🐜🪲 Nest located at 4949 Marie P. Debartolo way has been sprayed with Raid and Brock will be healthy and whole and holding the #6 🏆 Lombardi by the end of the season.

Yes, that's what I described. You could Always have 3 quarterbacks on the 46 active players if you wanted. This way, you don't have to, and can activate one during the game but only if two are lost in front of him.

NY, you are incorrect here. The 3rd QB has to be designated. Everyone will know who QB2 is and QB3 is cuz we have to declare it, if we want to use our own rule.

Yeah, I'm still a little hazy on the specifics to the rule but don't all three have to be on the 53 man roster but the third doesn't have to be "active" on game day, just designated? Or am I remembering it wrong

i believe the 3rd QB does NOT count against the game day active 46.

He must be on he 53. The difference is he doesn't need to take up one of your active 46.

that is my understanding. you have to designate who the emergency QB is, just like you designate your inactives. you can't play the we don't know who the 3rd QB is game like NY is implying. because by rule the 3rd QB cannot enter the game, unless the emergency situation happens. So if TL is QB3, we can't send him out for TL package, as an example, if he is designated the emergency guy.

correct

Each club may also designate one emergency third quarterback from its 53-player Active/Inactive List (i.e., elevated players are not eligible for designation) who will be eligible to be activated during the game, if the club's first two quarterbacks on its game day Active List are not able to participate in the game due to injury or disqualification (activation cannot be a result of a head coach's in-game decision to remove a player from the game due to performance or conduct). If either of the injured quarterbacks is cleared by the medical staff to return to play, the emergency third quarterback must be removed from the game and is not permitted to continue to play quarterback or any other position, but is eligible to return to the game to play quarterback if another emergency third quarterback situation arises.

A club is not eligible to use these procedures if it carries three quarterbacks on its game day Active List [47- or 48-players in 2023].
