Exhibition games are distractions, illusions, they carry some truth, but there’s a need to apply metric tons of context. Applying the big picture, what counts most is no injuries. Which leads to why was Brock Purdy on the field playing?
Exhibition games are distractions, illusions, they carry some truth, but there’s a need to apply metric tons of context.
The injury risk seems far greater than the benefit of reps in an exhibition game. That risk is compounded by playing with backup weapons and a shaky line. Purdy spoke about the need to play in a game facing contact, but this level of risk seemed reckless and unnecessary. Backup quarterbacks Josh Dobbs and Tanner Mordecai both played well. Dobbs is adjusting to the “see it, throw it” needs of the Shanahan offense, to be accurate and get the ball out with anticipation and timing. He also made a nice move as a runner at the goal line making a defender miss to go in for the score.
Tatum Bethune led the team with ten tackles and also had a TFL, but a lot of that was late game against lesser competition. Jalen Graham had a smart high effort sack but was also beat in the pass and the run.
