Did you see how he opened up the second half of that game ? He was throwing darts downfield without hesitation.

it's amazing to watch.

Right now he is Jimmy G with better mobility and accurate deep throws. His ceiling is not low at all. That was the concern some of us had initially.

And, a better arm. People don't seem to want to acknowledge that.

So he is not Jimmy
he plays like a 6'1" version of russell wilson to me when he runs around like a squirrell

He's playing better than a majority of NFL QBs right now. Just as Jimmy was.

Yeah, that deep dime to Kittle should have quieted the "he doesn't have an arm to go deep, but his arm, ok cool his arm however" ppl. Where are they getting this? Lol. Dude is delivering all over. It is a good fking Christmas.

its still hard for me to believe he's as good as we have been seeing. Like there has to be a good reason why he was picked last in the draft right? He has been looking better than all the first round QBs

Looks nothing like Russell Wilson when scrambling

I think he was simply overlooked idk why. Purdy knew what he could offer and now he's been given the chance. He's hungry, the whole team is hungry. Just so damn awesome.

Lack of size, smaller school, no measurables jumped off the chart. He wouldn't be the only late draft player to have a successful career, if this grows like we all want it to. Brady, Warner, Moon all turned out pretty good*. *Hall of fame

He was the HS player of the year in Arizona and seemed like a competitor in college. With QB it's heart and processing more than arm talent and foot speed. I think our scouts, Brian Greese and Kyle need some credit. But damn Kyle is not holding Brock back. It looks to me he's taking more chances with Brock.
This guy looks f**king good.

Well a more accurate arm outside the numbers would be a fair call.

Remember all those times the last couple of years I told you the QB position could use an upgrade?
