Purdy was arm punting. And then air balling anything over 10 yards. If that is a guy that can supposedly sling the rock, I'd hate to see what we have behind him.
Smothers can throw better than Purdy showed. And Smothers is actually a bonafide run threat. I'm not saying Smothers is great, but to watch what Purdy did all of the 2nd hallf and not give Smothers 1 series.... mind boggling.
And yes, the O Line may be the worst O Line in the P5. Making the job for any QB we put in much, much tougher. But Purdy looked like he would have a hard time playing well at a JV football level.
