Most of his ints aren't boneheaded. they just as the one poster said, part of being a QB in the NFL. Those throws he makes are hard as hell, not bc of the arm strength needed but because he has to layer them over the LB in most cases and in front of the db. I've heard him called the layer king and its for good reason.

The INT he threw to Kittle was the right decision, just missed the throw. And had nothing to do with lack of arm strength, if he would have put more air under it, that's a TD. Steph Curry doesn't drill every 3 pointer he takes, either.

Yah I think Brock Purdy just misses on some tough throws. I can't really fault him for that, but I wish he would avoid some of those layered throws. Two of his INT's were to Kittle, and it's just the defense watching film on Purdy to Kittle. They look forced but IMO, it's just Purdy trusting in Kittle.

He hits on those layered throws more than any QB in the league. Its one of his greatest traits and I'm alright with him taking some chances in order to hit the big plays. From Alex Smith to Jimmy G, I was so tired of the dink and dunk, drop it off game manager that finally having a QB with a killer instinct is SO worth the occasional int. Especially since he can brush it off and come back with guns blazing.
