QB Brock Purdy Thread

I'm arguing for smart decision making. There is nothing wrong with a 2nd and 7 or 2nd and 6, and that's if the checkdown is tackled on the spot. There is something wrong with forcing a bad pass into the middle of field after holding the ball and having a rusher targeting you.


Look at the play. We will keep struggling if Brock continues to make decisions like this.

Concerning part is that this was why he was good early in his career. Good decisions and accuracy.

Every INT Is i on the QB, Just my thoughts. He did have Juice there for a 5-10 yard gain. For sure he trying to do to much

He was open. You're arguing for Jimmy G mentality.

He's normally pretty accurate. Like I mentioned, I think the inaccuracy yesterday was probably due to his injury.

You look at his first game this season against Seattle and the accuracy was there. He played well outside of the turnover-worthy plays which have become more of a problem going back beyond this season.

This play as it happened is the Jimmy G mentality, lol.

No, Juice was not "open for 5-10 yards." Watch from the side. Juice is standing 2 yards behind the LOS with a defender close by. He'd have been lucky to get 2-3 yards. Farrell is 2 yards past the LOS with a defender right on him.

These guys are arguing for 2nd and 7, Jimmy G style of play. Some fans just like to complain and be miserable. Don't fall for it.

Jimmy G wouldn't dream of attempting that pass.

The thing is I remember your arguments about Jimmy G, and how you used to characterize his ability to execute Kyle's offense.

You're probably in for another rough ride here. Maybe this time you'll learn something.

You have been rehabilitated.

He hasn't, lol.
If he continues to play like the second coming of Jimmy G String, we won't win another game

If Brock makes an accurate throw on this play, would everyone still be criticizing Brock about the decision after the game? Probably not.

If he throws an equally inaccurate pass to Juice on that play, it could still just as easily be intercepted.

Juice is at the LOS or 1 yard ahead. I didnt see the jags defender in the corner. i still belive he dumps it of to Juice gets not 5-10 but 3-4 yards or who know Juice breaks a tackle. End of the day i think Purdy is still Pressing

Do you think the inaccuracy on this particular throw was strictly because of injury?

If not, you should understand criticism of the decision making.
