Oh I agree. Football has so many subjective calls that you could breakdown every single play and find penalties. Some are just more obvious than others. I thought the Beyer one was clear PI whereas the Scates one was more 50/50.

Purdy was God awful vs Washington St but his game against Washington St he was much better statistically than Stanley all of last year? Yikes
Go look at the teams he faced towards the end of the season. Drake, KSU, Baylor, Kansas, and Texas Tech. Not exactly murderers row! Against Texas he was bad, very very bad. We tend to let players slide on a game or two however we generally dont take into account the defenses played when kids do well.
This year will tell us more about Purdy. I have a feeling hes going to look awfully good for the next month and a half (may struggle against TCU, I'm still figuring that team out) and then come November when Texas and OU hit the schedule we will see how good he really is.
This happens with QBs everywhere by the way. At Iowa, Stanley can look like a stud one game, then like a JV player the next. That guy pisses his pants against Wisconsin every single year!
It's so funny watching some of them try to ignore statistics and the national media and talk themselves into thinking he's not that good
Interesting....so if it is the "Big 12 Defenses" hill you are wanting to die on, please go on to explain why other successful quarterbacks have massive success again other conferences defenses, like say, Kyler Murry, Pat Mahomes, Mason Rudolph, Baker Mayfield, and now Jalen Hurts
I think Purdy will look great against OU, their defense is still a wet paper bag in my opinion. Texas and TCU will be the big tests for sure
The contact wasn't as 'hard' on Scates, but the defender was early and did hit him, still fits within the requirements of PI.
Are you guys worried about a let down against Louisiana-Monroe after Game-day/Cy-Hawk hype? Not trolling....I'm glad the Hawks have a bye this week.
Not really. I think they'll be eager to get back out there but who knows
I would be if I were them since Matt Campbell doesn't prepare his team for non conference games. King of a crazy strategy since there are only 12 games on the schedule.
A little bit, but not UNI or Drake type performances.
I don't think we'll see a 54-0 type blowout. I think that is also partially due to my theory* regarding the staff using cupcakes as virtual scrimmages.
*emphasis on my theory.
I want a 75°F and sunny day, with a 60 point win over an inferior opponent. I want to see Re-al Mitchell then Kolar as QB.
That shouldn't be too much to ask should it? It's been a while since we've had a day like that.

Good Lord. Are you Donald Trumps Press Secretary?
Brock Purdy - QBR vs Washington State = 75.9 0 TD 2 INT
Nate Stanley - QBR vs Mississippi State = 78.1 3 TD 1 INT
Well I was responding to the poster who said Purdy was God awful vs Washington St. I then brought up Purdy's stats that game vs Stanley all year. I don't think anyone said Stanley was God awful vs Mississippi State
I like Brock Purdy. He's a great young QB but you keep dredging up Passer Rating vs Quarter Back Rating. Nearly every stat person out there would agree that QBR is a way better measure of a QBs performance. For the year last year both QBs were actually very close in QBR with Purdy's being slightly higher but not by much.
