The good thing about Brock is that he is very self aware and the comments he made after the Ravens game really do show that he understands the mistakes he made and that he was trying to do too much and get the whole game back on 1 play.
I have absolutely no doubt he can lead us to #6 this year.
He didn't try to do too much. He was just unlucky. Three tipped ints? There was nothing structural that I saw that worried me.
He definitely did try to do too much. He checked to a pass on the 2nd interception when the DBs were blitzing. Potentially the correct check in that situation but threw the pass too quickly. The third interception he forced a ball into coverage knowing that there was already an offense penalty on his line. Listen to his post game press conference. He clearly tried to do too much and he admitted it.
Totally agree, he did try to do too much. I honestly think the MVP crap excited him and got in his head a little, why else was he so pass heavy.
I think there were a couple other throws that could have been picked off too. The one behind Deebo comes to mind and there was another one too unless that was Darnold. It could have been a 7 int game. Before Darnold came in he still had the offensive out-gaining the Ravens 355 to 343 yds but a chunk of that was against prevent before he got hurt. Then again, that 1st drive before the Hamilton end zone pick seemed to foreshadow another blowout. Too bad Shanny couldn't have adjusted the game plan a bit earlier. BP will be just fine. And yes, not sure how much worse it can get unless he starts to lose his offensive weapons and protection. He's paid his dues against the Ravens, Browns, and Vikings. I'm sure we'll see a better BP because of this - but the turnovers in bunches trends is a bit worrisome.
Btw, CMC got his rushing yards but he was getting stonewalled on some inside runs. I thought he was hurt on that one bear hugging tackle by the Raven's DT. So maybe a blessing in disguise is that CMC escaped unscathed (anti-jinx).
