Pretty much a tale of two lines. Their O line vs. Ours. Everything else pretty much even.

Winning in the margins also means making tough decisions. Playing a QB whose bell has been rung and not riding the hot hand.

To be fair, Dekkers got bailed out by a fake punt and miracle catch by Breece. I think the staff thinks Purdy gives us the best chance to win.
no doubt about that being what the staff thinks and they could very be right - the one thing I'll give Dekkers ie Hall's catch is he extended the play and gave him a chance to make an exceptional catch. Was it a great throw? Probably not. But he kept his eyes down field and put it close enough to Breece who was reasonably well covered.


While I don't doubt Brock is better suited I just IDK.... you get a little momentum there. not much perhaps but a little bit after not really having much all day....not to mention the health piece. With an offensive line acting like open flood gates at high tide - IDK. I'm not saying sacrifice Dekkers to the wolves but putting a guy back in with a possible concussion or whatever can be dicey and at this point.... health matters more than anything. We end up losing with Dekkers.... fine. We lose with Purdy...fine.

I just want us to be healthy
