The Herd | Colin Cowherd reacts Brock Purdy makes his first Pro Bowl appearance

So um I’m I’m going to tell you I think a game that is lowkey fascinating is Chicago at Green Bay going to be called whether or not a factor two very young athletic quarterbacks both with good arms now I think love looks to me to be better than

Justin Fields but love has an offensive coach an offensive culture sick young wide receiver Talent basically Justin Fields has a good tight end and DJ Moore and it’s a defensive culture historically so I think love is better than Justin that’s what I think but I do

Think a lot of it they’re very even Green Bay just does quarterbacks right and they have for 30 years and Chicago doesn’t ever so I’ve been pretty hot on my blazing five 12 of the last 14 weeks I’m uh I’ve I’ve been 500 or better no

Losing week 63% 12 of the 14 weeks right so um pretty good why I try to take the best quarterback but it’s not just the best quarterback I take the best quarterback against the defense they’ll face so again I think Jordan love is better than Justin Fields but Green Bay’s defense is so

Bad and Justin Fields is close enough to Jordan love in talent that I think it’s very possible that Jordan that Justin Fields has a better game than Jordan love does against a surging well schooled Chicago def defense that’s not great but playing pretty good so in this game Justin

Fields could look like the better quarterback remember Green Bay allows quarterbacks to run only two teams in the NFL have allowed quarterbacks to run for more rush yards than Green Bay only two in the whole league and Justin Fields can to run and it’s the last game

Of the year he’s not protecting his body he’s going to go run you’re going to see Justin Fields running around so I think it’s going to be a very close game my gut feeling is there’s a potential for a Chicago winning an upset if you’re a

Talk show host and I know not many of you are you have to root for Chicago you have to root for Chicago here’s why cuz in our business it’s all about what’s the discussion Monday after a weekend if Jordan love wins gets to the playoffs it’s fun they’re not

Winning the Super Bowl and everybody kind of likes Jordan love now if Justin Fields loses that game gonna go draft Caleb Williams but what if Justin Fields because he’s facing Green Bay’s awful defense what if Justin Fields looks better than in love and I think there’s a possibility of this

Happening again I think Jaylen Herz is better than Tyrod Taylor but against that Philadelphia defense Tyrod Taylor on Sunday could look better than Jaylen Herz against the Giants defense so I think Justin Fields is going to look pretty good against Green Bay this weekend because Green Bay you can run on

Them and he will run no no game next week doesn’t have to protect himself it’s like these college quarterbacks CJ stra Justin her Michael penck in bowl games run there is no tomorrow just run and uh so I root for interesting and I think what’s really interesting is uh

Justin Fields against that egregiously bad Green Bay defense it’s going to be cold weather is not going to be a huge issue all right so I want to throw another one at you jmck is not GNA like this one so um a lot of people right now like

Brock prie I get it they like Brock prie and he was the last guy taken in a draft and Jared gof was the first guy taken in a draft so they you know you don’t think they have a lot in common but they were both pretty good year or two right right

So both had a loaded roster goof did early McVey got there loaded roster they weren’t paying Jared anything he had a great offensive coach Kyle Shanahan Shawn mcy so prie and G both had a good offensive roster uh uh great offensive coach Hall of Fame left tackle one or two elite

Weapons but then something started to emerge with GF once they paid him had to let go of a couple people he wasn’t really kind of a guy that could carry a franchise he could manage it so PR’s going to get paid in a couple years not this year but one of

The things I look at is what happens when maybe prie doesn’t have his left tackle or doesn’t have Christian mcaffrey or Debo because that’s what’s going to happen when they pay him he misses those players now when they’re injured in two three years when they pay them he’ll miss them because they can’t

Afford them Jared gof in that 2017 season in the fourth quarter traing ing had a 51% completion percentage passer rating at 55 Brock pretty this year in the fourth quarter trailing interesting fourth quarter this season these are just fourth quarter St it’s interesting interesting fourth quarter trailing stats for gof and Brock pry

Virtually identical so again when you have the great coach McVey Shanahan got a loaded roster that you can manage wo this guy can sling it what happens when you pay the guy and he doesn’t have that left tackle or he retires doesn’t have that second weapon doesn’t have the great Edge

Rush the coach gets frustrated with limitations that he can’t really carry you like Josh Allen Lamar Jackson Patrick Mahomes Joe burrow can’t do that so I’m just saying we saw it with Goff right we saw gof get to a Super Bowl they needed golf on that day

Against New England to just take the game over with McVey three points the frustration began so it’s this right now for prie is the Jared Goff before the bag years MVP Super Bowl this guy is a franchise guy not denying that but there is a difference a stark difference as he

Makes the Pro Bowl yesterday between Lamar moms Allen and not being paid yet I mean couldn’t the Cowboys use a second great receiver they can’t afford it they got to go discount shopping couldn’t they use another great lead back Dallas can’t afford it early in G’s career they could

Just go buy stuff let’s go get Jaylen Ramsey at the end uh we got to make Cuts here we’re paying so just just we have a little history here goff’s fourth quarter trailing stats look a lot like like pities when you’re missing a starter game’s not

Going your way we need you to carry us but congrats on the Pro Bowl all right listen what has gotten into you in this first hour like go it’s aggressive uh small sample size for the pry uh go stuff yeah come on um I’m I’m just going to toss this at you

I’m looking at the quarterback stats this season who do you think statistically has had a better season Brock pie or Jared gof they both have really good Seasons statistically yeah statistically I would say probably pretty not probably in every category completion percentage yards yards per attempt Shanah kind of a gap well Ben

Johnson but he’s going to be G um statistically who’s had a better season statistically Brock pie or Dak Prescott oh prie for sure every single cat you well that’s because he has more than one really gooder I got it what if Shanahan is so smart and he says pie we love you

We love what you’ve done I agree with coward I don’t want to pay you $45 million so you could take a Team friendly deal or we’re going to move on and start the quarterback cycle over what do you do you think Shanahan will do that because I am of the belief I

Said it on my podcast this week Dolphins fans hate me I think we might see that with Tua if McDaniel can get his hands on Pennock he will reset the quarterback cycle and he’ll get 80% of Tua with Michael pennick if you can get 80% of Brock pie with some quarterback coming

Out that Shanahan likes well I we’re going to see it sooner than later well it’s interesting if San Francisco gets to the NFC Championship they will missing a left tackle and need bro
