Episode notes
Purdy's Interceptions Turn Game Sloppy
- Brock Purdy turned a likely blowout into a close, sloppy game by throwing three interceptions and posting a 58.5 passer rating.
- Matt Barrows notes this fits a season-long pattern of risky downfield attempts and a high interception rate despite some big games.
Toe Injury Might Limit Purdy's Downfield Game
- Tim Kawakami and Matt Barrows debate whether Purdy's throws were timing issues or related to his toe injury affecting plant and zip.
- They suggest Shanahan prefers downfield attempts but the team may need to scale back while Purdy is limited.
Scale Back Downfield Attempts
- Avoid forcing big downfield passes while Purdy shows timing and health inconsistencies.
- Run a safer, short-passing and run-first plan until the bye or his mechanics improve.
