Purdy.....

[CascadeClone]

He led top 10 team right out of the rankings one game into conference play. There’s more to football than putting up stats. Kirk Cousins has some of the best stats in the NFL this year.

Oh c'mon. He didn't punt for net 0 yards resulting in a FG for the opponent, and he didn't miss his lane or the tackle on the kickoff return TD. He did lead them to a last minute TD with a chance to win the game despite all that trash.

I think you're slapping BP, when really you should be mad at CMC.

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

That is a good, arbitrary line of demarcation that ensures nobody since 1900-whatever will count as the best player we've seen at their position.

I mean he still will be, but let's not pretend like we have a history of excellence.

Kirk Cousins shouldn't have allowed the Bengals to score 27 and the Cardinals to score 34...

 

[Cymon]

Has anyone heard the rumor that Purdy has been dealing with a nagging injury since the start of the season?

Danny White and Tony Romo were stat stuffers too.

Romo was 78-49 as a starter and the Cowboys averaged over 25 points per game in his career...

Edit: unless that was your point

Yeah and Aaron Rodgers leads the Packers right out of the NFC championship game because he gives up 35 points a game

My point was that he's a good player but they never really won anything of consequence with him, same as Danny White.

What was the Fiesta Bowl?

I'm in the camp that he's good but has limitations and isn't maximized for his skill set but you gotta be fair in that winning that game is very worthy.

I get your point but our defense did not lose that game.

Meh, I suppose. I give that game to our lines but it was a historic accomplishment for sure.

So if he's QB and ISU wins a B12 title with a similar stat line, does that make him worthy?

 

[CyTwins]

According to PFF his ratings for passes

Behind LOS - 70.0
0-9 yards - 68.0
10-19 - 93.2 (that's insane)
20+ - 83.3

That's crazy good for 10+ yard passes

Sorry @WhoISthis

I think he's worthy now, I just think his senior year is large for his legacy and for ISU football moving forward.

Elephantiasis?

 

[jcyclonee]

Elephantiasis?

Although that would certainly count as nagging, it isn't really an injury.

Maybe he sustained an injury while boxing a kangaroo.

The mullet makes him invincible. Kind of Samson's Hair kind of deal.

The wisdom of Elvis still rings true.

"Keep your cotton pickin' fingers
out my curly hair."

Definitely didn't age well.

 

[Neptune78]

I've never been a fan of PFF and their rating system, honestly.

When PFF has three QBs listed for one ranking spot it is hard to take them seriously.

True. I better get rid of that one.
