What puzzles me: 11 players, a head coach, a defensive coordinator, defensive position coaches all tasked with making a QB FAIL. Film, experience, talent, strategy, tactics, resources--invested to stop an offense. And, yes, this array can be very effective limiting even the best QBs ever. So, yes, sometimes a QB and an offense will be wildly inconsistent, ineffective, baffled. Fans too often forget that your favored team is playing against a well-coached, talented, aggressive, focused OPPONENT.
His teammates, the organization, and the opposition know how good Purdy is. Maybe, the critics will come around. Oh...
A thoughtful, reasoned and sensible articulation.

Looking forward to basketball talk. In the meantime, there's this: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/03/sports/football/nfl-broadcast-fans.html and https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2023/11/16/us/cte-youth-football.html
No mention of Purdy's draft position? Is it even legal to write about him without mentioning that? I'm thirsty!
