I think maybe the TO thing is a bit overstated due to the Bills game. And it was a very bad game but it was a bit of an outlier. Its his only multi-interception game of the season and without that start he has 5 picks on the season. He's also being asked to throw the ball a ton. He has 20 more pass attempts than the next closest QB (Mahomes) and 6 of the 9 QBs who have 300 or more attempts have 7+ interceptions on the season including guys like Mahomes, Allen, Hurts and Tua. You obviously can't hand wave away the Bills game and it was an awful game for him but that one start pulls down his numbers a lot. Its unfortunate because I think if he played them again he would look a lot different. But then again, he may be high on PFF's turnover worthy throw rate as I'll have to look into that but I know he's now tops in their big time throw category although I don't put much weight into PFF grades anymore. I can say as a fan of the team, I'm excited and I'm probably being a bit of a homer in my defense of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BetterCallSaul Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 I don’t understand why he fell so far. He was my QB1 the whole time. Regression in his final season? I feel like the whole team blew up around him. No idea why they didn’t play him much last season when they were so desperate for a shot in the arm.

49ersfan Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 I didn't pay a lot of attention to the 2022 QB class. I think Pickett, Willis, Corral, Strong etc got a lot of the hype But Howell & Purdy are the 2 best QB's of that class. And however you rank them, they're 2nd and 3rd even if you include the 2021 class which was hyped up to be way better, only Lawrence is above from those 2 years.

He lost a bunch of oline and wr had a production drop off but I rather have a college qb who doesn’t throw to the best wr and doesn’t have the best line prepares them more for the nfl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thelonebillsfan Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 If you told me he was the #1 overall pick last year I'd believe you. He's really good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
