I think Purdy is most benefitted by the defense. Up 14-3, 49ers ran a give up draw on third and long.
Sure the offensive scheme helps, but he’s quick on his progressions and delivers a very catchable ball. He also moves well in and out of the pocket and is quite poised when the pocket crashes in.
He hasn’t been consistently tested down in in the second half score yet, their defense allows Shanahan to not press for big plays, quick scores. But he’s performed well in the playoffs already.
Not as good (or battle tested) as young Tom Brady but along those lines. Definitely lacks the arm strength.
I agree with you pretty much except I don't think brock handles pressure that well. Nor does he have to most of the time. I also agree that their defense makes the biggest difference.
in my opinion, their system only works when they are winning. In fact it works so well, it infuriates me. When we play them again, I just want our offense to be at the top of their game. Make Purdy make the tough throws while facing max pressure because they don't have the luxury of a comfy lead.
because when i watch him in games that they have the lead, he throws into wide open spaces where no one is within 10 yards of a wr. Their running game scheme is so good with mccafrey it's obscene. I just feel like he's able to operate perfectly within it. I don't believe he has the arm strength to make any tough throws outside of an Intermediate throw into a space. I really don't. He rarely throws to a receiver in real time based on a move. . It's scheme, run deception, some trickery and deebo and mccaf are great players.
