This is awesome! I love the way he Carries himself and how humble is. These interviews are always fun when it's current/recently retired players.
couldn't be happier we landed this guy.
also cool that Trey was such a big help to him, he's always seemed like a great teammate
Great interview, great composure despite being surprised Jimmy was going to be out more than one series. He loves Kyle's offense. I can't wait to see him 💯% and slicing and dicing NFL defenses. 2nd year is the time for the biggest improvement in a typical NFL career, I'm just imagining how good Brock will be in his 2nd year under Kyle.😳😳😳
People generally make the 2nd year leap when they're healthy during the off-season. Brock might get better at throwing left-handed, but how much progress can he really make this offseason when he might miss almost the entire thing? We also can't discount the amount of time Brock is spending on rehabbing the elbow that could normally be spent working on other things.
He is limited but he's talked a lot about the things he's working on. Not everything is done out on the field throwing the ball. He's worked on his footwork, studying concepts, shifts, footwork timing, defenses etc.
also you're acting like he won't throw the ball at all until sept. He will be throwing for 6-7 weeks by the time training camp even starts. It isn't like his arm will be 30% strength by the time training camp starts. Idk where he will be but he will be more than half way through ramp up period - usually the last 20% or so is what takes the longest. So, based on the things I've read - his arm will be approx 80% (may be a tad optimistic but not far fetched) when camp starts. He will continue the ramp up and should be able to participate in training camp in full 11-11 in the last 2-4 weeks at least. He will most likely be participating in camp on limited capacities before that. They'll just have to closely Monitor his arm and make sure he isn't over doing it. Also, if his arm is stronger than before, like he's suggested himself it may be, 80-85% may be what we know as his 100% last year - or really close to it.
plus, studying and reviewing the film on his game experiences etc can help him improve.
overall, yes he will be somewhat limited but it isn't like he will be on the couch until September.
AGree, and - just assuming last year - Brock knows somewhere between 50% and 80% of the Kyle offense, now he can concentrate on the missing 20%-50% that he doesn't know so that, from a mental standpoint, he'll know 100% of the Kyle offense this year. Also, his cardio could be better than last year since he was focused on making the draft versus focusing on his actual craft of playing QB. So from a physical standpoint and mental standpoint, I can see him being better than last year despite the time spent rehabbing the arm.
