Can't say I have much faith or confidence in the back ups again. Purdy is not good and HH needs alot of work in his passing. If Sims goes down it could be another long season
Appears we will see how the QB's will develope

I think Purdy will make a noticeable improvement with this staff. I think they like his foot speed and see him fitting into their offense.
I'm no expert, but HH seems to have a long delivery of the ball which may be affecting his accuracy. During the spring game it looked like he started his throws with the ball at waste-level which resulted in a sort of hitch in his throwing motion.
Honestly both have potential. Purdy has the legs and good enough arm. Can they get his head right with decision making?
HH's arm is great and he can run like a gazelle Can they get HH's accuracy up? Also not sure what his decision making is like cause his accuracy and windup was wack.
After the news today about CT, I wish Torres would have stuck around, after Thompson and Sims he was our 3rd best passer..
I played against Jeff Quinn in high school. He was an awful passer in high school. As a college senior he led the nation in passing efficiency. He backed up Mark Malone for a while with the Steelers. He’s my comp for HH. Quinn consistently threw the ball at his receiver’s ankles in high school. Not sure if they can fix HH or not.
HH has the same throwing motion and accuracy problems Quinn had when he got to NU. Similar builds. Similar athleticism.
Well I’ve heard several NFL QB gurus say you can’t fix accuracy problems so…. I’m not gonna hold my breath. Quinn was not a great deep ball thrower but he didn’t have to be in Tom’s offense. Our run game was good enough that there were a lot of open guys. Hell Tommie Frazier wasn’t a great passer either.
Agree on Purdey‘s running ability I thought he looked great in the spring scrambling. however, if your best play is a quarterback, scrambling for his life, that’s a recipe for disaster as we saw with 2 AM
