I don't know why people get so defensive when anyone points out a flaw in Purdy's game or says he didn't have a great game. We used to criticize Montana and Young when they didn't have a good game and threw a couple INTs. Nobody lost their s**t over it when we did. When Brock plays great and has a good game I acknowledge it. I only pointed out that he didn't have a good game yesterday to emphasize it was other things that won that game. Receivers like Robinson stepping up in a big game when he was mostly a nonfactor all year. The defense playing tighter coverage instead of allowing receivers to get wide open all day. Kyler designing a good game plan to exploit the holes in Philly's D. It wasn't an amazing performance by the QB that won that game.

He sure outplayed Hurts.

It would be nice if he learned to do that and have better discernment about when to take a chance and when to just eat it and take a sack or throw it away. I just think it might be his style/mindset that we're going to have to live and die with.

I've said it before but the reason purdy throws ints is similar to why he makes explosive plays: he's willing to make dangerous throws. You can't just say "stop throw the ints but still make those big plays". Just doesn't work that way in the long term but we've seen in the vacuum of a single game big plays + no turnovers. Hopefully we get that but you have to live with a gun slinger
