Steve Young podcasts can be found here. He talks a lot about Purdy and they ask him a lot about Purdy. Every week there is an episode. Listen to some of those episodes if you have time. Obviously he knows how to evaluate QB's and what he is seeing out there. What is good and so on. Also the why and how it's happening and his strengths.

This guy does a fantastic job of explaining what happens as well. He covers both the good and bad.

But...but...but deadeyederic laughs at the suggestion Brock should even be in this year's NFL MVP conversation. Surely he knows more than these former NFL QBs!

KC sports radio today, “it’s Pat, but I think you give the nod to Jalen after this weeks game. And a lot of people aren’t talking about it yet, but someone I think is the front runner currently and has their team at 8-3, is Lamar…”

Kittle said it well after the last game. Instead of Brock being elevated by the star players around him, it's actually the star players who are being elevated by Brock.

The idiot "experts" like to say Brock's stats are padded by all of the YAC that his receivers are getting. Those idiots don't realize the YAC is a direct function of a QB's accuracy. Brock is hitting his receivers right in stride which allows them to carry the ball much further down the field.

There are stats all over the internet that show he is throwing down the field through air yards. Before it hits the WR or TE. He's actually highly rated on that. Also hitting people in stride leads to yards after the catch as you said here.

Man imagine if you guys had an offensive line and some better weapons when he was there. You would have been in the College Football Playoff. Did you ever realize he was this good? They kind of under achieved with him there. Should have been more. Obviously based on what you are now seeing in the pros. Because it's astonishing.

Unfortunately the name of the game is ratings and all these talk show hosts know that negativity gets them viewers.

Yes, he took a team that didn’t look so great and instantly had success the program has never before experienced. Obviously coach deserves props but I think everyone on CycloneFanatic knew that something like this would happen… maybe not THIS good, but… good. He has clearly exceeded all expectations.

Should I tell him or should someone else tell him?

We knew he was good. His college career was interesting. Freshman year, the coaches just let him play how he likes to play and it was just wild success. After that they really tried to make him be a pocket passer (prevent injury). Junior year we won the Fiesta bowl. Senior year most people blame on the offensive coordinator lacking any creativity at all. His senior year was a big disappointment considering what talent we did have. That said, offensive line has always been a big problem. Fortunately for you, all of that has shaped and sharpened Brock into what he is today. His feel of pressure and ability to anticipate is outstanding. Personally the biggest problem you'll see in Brock is that he will at times try to do too much (make a play when it's just not there). It's just part of who he is.
