Y'all Better Stop Slandering Brock Purdy

[King Kreole]

Comparing raw QB numbers from different eras is foolish. The post 2010 QB will always have the advantage.over the QBs who came before. Guys like Teddy Bridgewater have a batter career passer rating than Dan Marino. Is that a product of play or era? There are stats that are era adjusted that can be used like... ANY/A, DVOA and DYAR. But raw numbers will almost always favor the more modern QB

Depends on the stats you're comparing. Raw passing yardage is of course an unreasonable metric given the rules changes, but TD-INT ratio is still a fairly reasonable comparison. The post-2010s QBs may have a push-factor in the stats, but they're also being asked to do far more than the previous era QBs. And the advanced metrics you mentioned like ANY/A and DVOA use TDs and Ints as foundational statistics in their models because regardless of era, a QB throwing a TD is the most positive outcome on any play and throwing an interception is the worst outcome on any play.

There are too many haters and stans in sports discourse now, so people are just trying to get their hot takes off. But the real answer is longevity. Lamar has 2x MVPs and 3x First-Team All Pros, so even if he does have a stinker slump he still has a 7-season resume of Tier 1 play to fall back on. The younger guys don't have that. Mahomes lowkey has been playing Tier-2 ball for the past few years but he has 5-seasons worth of goated play so he's pretty much untouchable. It is what it is. People are just too quick to give up on young QBs figuring it out, which is why they have these stupid whiplash takes where one game a guy is an elite future-goat and the next game he's a bum who should be benched. If social media was around back in the day these same guys would be saying the same stupid shyt about a ton of HOF QBs.

Purdy is on his 40th start with 70 TDs and 32 ints. At their 40th starts, Peyton Manning had 70 TDs and 52 ints, Brady had 57 TDs and 34 ints, Brees had 51 TDs and 37 ints, Roethlisberger had 50 TDs and 41 ints. Mahomes being a unicorn who dominated basically immediately has destroyed people's perception of normal QB development.

Let's just keep it to present day @premier58 Purdy's career QB rating is 103.1 even after the bad half last week

The guys making "Brock money"

Kyler Murray: 92.2

Tua: 96.6

Dak: 98.5

Jordan Love: 97.4

Trevor Lawrence: 84.2

Herbert: 96.4

Goff: 96.8

Jalen Hurts: 95.0

Watson: 98.8


Guys making a little less than "Brock money"


Baker: 91.4

Geno Smith: 87.4

Darnold: 86.4

This is recency bias. Mac was damn near out of the league after last season.and he isn't as good as Sam Darnold or even Daniel Jones.

He did a very good job when asked to play but even towards the end he wasn't as good. He had the same pass chart as Purdy did his rookie year but he's better now.

Brock has obviously been playing hurt all season and Kyle Shanahan should have had the stones to shut him down the rest of the season to let the turf toe fully heal.
