"purdy cannot throw a ball through a pane of glass" is about right but doesn't need to do i guess.
If this is critiquing his accuracy it's flat out wrong. Dude was as accurate as Rodgers or Brady Sunday night, dropping in elite level accuracy on throws over 20-30 yards down field all night. See: First Kittle TD, Aiyuk completion that was called back due to holding, and the third Kittle TD for starters. Multiple passes over the middle were as elite throws as anyone in the league can throw when hitting a window pane target.
If it's critiquing his arm strength this is also dumb. Dude is leading the league in deep ball accuracy after the last game too, overtaking Tua.
Dude is doing anything you'd ask any of the best QBs to do in the league at this stage and doing it without making many mistakes against (alleged) top flight defenses like Dallas.

yea its pretty easy to suspect something flukey is going on but when you actually watch him its like nah he's legitimately good
― frogbs, Tuesday, 10 October 2023 18:24 (eleven months ago) link
I mean obviously a lot of that is on the coaching staff because so many of those throws are aimed directly at where the receiver is going to be in 3/4 of a second but also, he's very accurate on those throws, and a whole lot of QBs arent

Exactly, see Love and Jimmy G last night if you need examples of what actual middling QB play looks like.

i guess there aren't too many compelling matchups this week, but having the nyfg (+15) at buffalo as your NBC Football Night in America Game of the Week is lol

Purdy finally got his first loss, vs. Cleveland’s 3rd stringer no less. Took some doing by the refs but still he played pretty bad
― frogbs, Sunday, 15 October 2023 20:37 (eleven months ago) link
Yeah that was an ugly game - but Purdy did get them into reasonable field goal range and Moody was wide right. Hope this doesn't mess up Moody's and Purdy's confidence moving forward. Looking for a bounce back against the Vikings next Monday.
― octobeard, Sunday, 15 October 2023 20:49 (eleven months ago) link
Also fingers crossed on the injuries
Cleveland's D is pretty legit. They mangled the Bengals in week one, they could not do anything.
Fox has the national game of Eagles/Jets when there is actually a game with division leaders in the Lions/Bucs happening. Got to love that NY TV market, even when their clubs stink.
― earlnash, Sunday, 15 October 2023 21:26 (eleven months ago) link
Yeah, Lions/Bucs is a good game so far.

Can't believe the 49ers lost that game. Fox switched the feed and missed the ending

Rams looked good when they run the ball, the problem is Mcvay always gives up on the run. He gets inpatient

my preseason prediction was that the Lions would look like the Giants do now and vice versa. I just feel like the Lions always fall apart the instant anyone expects anything out of them while the Giants did look pretty good last year. I mean Daniel Jones looked like he was on his way to becoming a menace and he's just really sucked this year.

if you take out the Cardinals game the Giants offense has scored 1 touchdown this season

Giants fans and analysts got one mediocre season out of Joe Judge before declaring him the second coming of Lombardi then promptly realizing he wasn't. Now they are going to do the exact same thing with Daboll. Hilarious.

Got to say Zach Wilson did not play too bad yesterday, he also had 3-4 really bad drops where he hit the guy in the numbers and got bupkus.
I guess Mercury Morris probably popped some champagne yesterday. With the 17 game schedule, it's even a bit more unlikely that the undefeated season will ever happen again.

Oh fantasy football, you run so hot and cold it is cruel.
David Montgomery/Kittle/Samuel - week 5 = 60 pts

I lost by 4 points.
didn't realize that was the first time the eagles had *ever* lost to the jets
they'd been 12-0 over 50 years
