It's kind of funny though.. If you think about it. His worst start so far is one where, although he missed several guys and threw a pick, he still made some huge precision throws, scrambled out of pressure numerous times (he was pressured a lot), brought the team back from behind, drove the team down with just a minute left for a game winning field goal attempt, and ultimately won in a shootout where we almost put up 40 points -- something we rarely did these past few years.
And he's a seventh round rookie? Dang.
Is this a guy you can figure out? It seems like so far, the best you can do is hope to get pressure, which affects any QB, or bat balls down. He just seems to deliver in every other facet so far.
Pocket elusiveness/mobility
Quick release
Cool under defensive pressure
Calm in key situations
Adequate arm
Strong football IQ
Trusts his reads
Generally makes good decisions
Goes for the big play when available
Natural leader
Physically and mentally tough
Doesn't snowball after a mistake
High character player & humble
I have been cautiously optimistic and I'm still trying to keep some sense of that, although it's getting harder and harder to ignore the fact that the kid is checking off virtually every box there is for a franchise quarterback.
Next steps would be to be big time in big time games -- the playoffs.
1) How much of it do you equate to the super-offense he has with CMac here and Kittle now healthy? Jimmy looked pretty darn good in this CMac-infused offense as well,...the best he ever has, and that's without a training camp. So this obviously is an open-ended question. And the more important question @ hand with a guy like Purdy is....
2) As teams get more used to his game, is he already relatively close to his peak? Or does he have alot more room for growth?
youre always trying to attribute Purdy's success to others. lol. while Jimmy did look good, Purdy has elevated the offense by about 10 pts per game against better defenses.
Stop concerning yourself about what I'm personally doing when the entire post was about the potential of a rookie with a handful of starts. 49ers.
The potential of a rookie to improve is clearly a legit question.
Explain why you feel Purdy wouldn't improve?
WTF??? How did you come up with such lunacy? I asked a question and never suggested he can't improve.
Some guy's ceilings are higher than others. But please don't make up quotes that were never said or even suggested.
"The potential of a rookie to improve is clearly a legit question."
Some people think it is a legit question for one QB but not another apparently.
Since you, Furlow, and Jeepy are so effective @ completely changing up people's clear original points,...I guess I'll go ahead and copy & paste the original questions for clarity:
1) How much of [Brock's succes] do you equate to the super-offense he has with CMac here and Kittle now healthy? Jimmy looked pretty darn good in this CMac-infused offense as well,...the best he ever has, and that's without a training camp. So this obviously is an open-ended question. And the more important question @ hand with a guy like Purdy is....
2) As teams get more used to his game, is he already relatively close to his peak? Or does he have alot more room for growth?
How you guys can take a 2-sided, open-ended question and convert it somehow to a 1-sided answer is beyond amazing,...lol.
Of course he has room for growth. A QB can can always improve his consistency - something all QBs can get better at.
All QBs can make an accurate throw, all QBs can make the perfect read, the perfect presnap adjustment - how frequently can they do this within the course of a game is what separates a high quality QB from the rest. Likewise, all QBs make bad reads, make inaccurate throws, misses an open WR, make the wrong adjustment - how well a QB limits these types of reps separates a high quality QB from the rest.
