MNF - Lions @ Niners

[Easy 6]

It'll be fun for a while, at least until Detroit is all outta kneecaps to bite

Wow Schefter just said Hutchinson wants to come back if Detroit makes it to the SB, seems pretty damn unlikely considering the severity of his injury... running in a swimming pool isn't quite the same as a game

But after they pay him and guys like Aiyuk and Trent Williams, etc. can't be paid, then we'll see if Purdy's able to keep performing at a high level. I have a feeling he won't.

Well that’s the conundrum. He’s solid, but not special. But he puts up good numbers, so he will get paid by somebody. NFL QBs that can play are valuable commodities.

Not sure that he can play acceptably without at least 4 of CMC, Aiyuk, Deebo, Trent, Kittle, Jennings. But even if he can, the lack of arm strength is a serious problem. I think he's Tua but with less arm strength.

That's how you go from a shit franchise to a competent franchise... let other teams buy high while you sell high.

Also now maybe a second significant injury to Purdy’s throwing arm… for a guy who didn’t have a lot of arm strength to begin with.

I’d be hesitant to invest big $$$ in that type of QB.

Purdy at least took that roster to a SB. Tua had Hill, Waddle, a great running game and did jack and shit when he wasn't in concussion protocol.

I would take Purdy ten times out of ten over Tua.
