Rams are one of the worst defenses in the NFL and Purdy hung up 24. Compare what he did to what Kyler did.

They had almost identical statistical performances. You’re grasping now and it’s glorious. Purdy would have had an even better game had bell not had a hilarious drop at the end of the game.
 
How’d Stroud do against the Vikings in comparison to Purdy to use your idiotic argument to try and knock Purdy?

Kyler threw for 26 less yards in 9 less attempts, If you go net to give Purdy a better benefit 30 less yards in 9 less attempts. Meaning that Kyler if he kept his NY/A would need 3 more passes to blow pass Purdy which means if he had the equal number of attempts he would have had about 65 more yards.

They're not really almost identicle, because Cardinals took their foot off the gas, Kyler didn't even play the last drive.
 
First 3 weeks of the season, the Bills look easily like the best team in the NFL. I don't think anyone's bingo card for 2024 was the Bills losing Diggs and their offense exploding. Some of it is opponents but my man has 4 TDs and 250 yards in the first half. That's ****ing bonkers.
 
Daniels' bomb to McLaurin was a sight to behold. Cincinnati looks to be down on defense, but Daniels was making plays all over the place last night. I didn't see that much of him last season at LSU and it's only a week, but he looks like he could be somebody.

I thought they did well to get rid of Diggs, even better to get a 2nd rounder for him. He had a fairly large decline last year and was a distraction when things weren't going the way he wanted them to.

I certainly didn't think that Shakir was a capable No. 1 though. He's been very good for Buffalo so far.

Yes yes yes - Continue the 'rationalization' as to why Purdy isn't good.

It simply can't be he is has elite skills when it comes to reading defense pre-snap/during play while also understanding route concepts that attack levels of defense. Guy anticipates as well as anyone and throws his receivers open all the time. Oh - And he is elite from the QB position at using his legs to extend plays and get first downs.

Guy aint perfect thats for sure but your attempts to discount what he is doing is laughable.

I hope teams stop selling out to guard Aiyuk. That just means he will start to eat and then you'll say Purdy is only good because of Aiyuk.

Saying someone might not be top 5 doesn't mean you are saying the player isn't good.

Which one....LOL. The 55 yarder or the game ender on 3rd down vs. the all out blitz?

I will hold in my optimism for now, but they have scored on all non kneeldown possessions for the last 2 weeks. The dude just seems to get it at QB and he's like Lamar when it comes to scrambling. It opens up so much with the running game and makes 3rd/4th and short easier to convert. Last night was as close to a perfect game from him as you can get.
 
Ive been saying Lawrence was not a generational QB from day 1. Starting to hear those comments now......... Dude is just nothing more than an averageish starter. Maybe slightly better than average.

Yeah - Your take is fair.

For some reason Zito thinks he is ass.

In reality - Purdy I think should safely be included within the top 10 QB's.

I never said he was ass. He's in the right situation for him. I don't think Sam Darnold is a good QB. But for Minnesota he is great because that system and talent is perfect for him. But plunk him into a different team he'll struggle. Being a system QB isn't a bad thing.

Jayden Daniels is an awesome QB talentwise. He reminds me a lot of a better version of AR5. The issue with him was would he stay healthy. If he can stay healthy he'll be a beast.

I don't think Shakir is a 1 on any other team. Josh Allen is the best QB in the game right now. It's criminal he didn't win his MVP in 2020 or 2021. If Josh Allen had a Steve Spagnolo defense he'd have a ring.

Josh Allen is tremendous

Josh Allen has had some great defenses in Buffalo



Josh Allen has to be great bc with any great QB getting the contract he has, you are going to lose pieces surrounding him.

The one when McLaurin got tackled at the one. Just a great throw. McLaurin didn't have much separation but the ball was right there.

It's not just the defense talent, SPags is great at calling games when it matters.

I think the big challenge for Daniels is going to be the same challenge he faced in college, which is his penchant for just taking off and running. It must be difficult for him to resist because he's so frickin' fast. He looks to be a more complete QB than RGIII, but it was Griffin's getting banged up from running that contributed to his big injury. That's a cautionary tale for a lot of these young QBs. Anyway, Daniels looks a lot more sure of himself than Caleb Williams at this point.
