Official Purdy Excuses Thread

[Tetonia]

It’s kinda pointless to try the HH-apologist thread at this point. Bottom line is that NONE of the rostered QB’s we currently try have were fit to put on the jersey this year. The program whiffed. Epically. They could have done more, and made a conscious decision not to.

We’d best a) turn down any Pity Bowl invite and b) buy the solutions in the offseason, which has officially begun.

 

[JOHNNY N]

It’s not fun

Could see this from ten thousand miles away

Lots of you need to look in the mirror and ask yourself why you couldn’t

You could see it from 10k miles? Man you sure have good eyesight.


which is strange because you can't see yourself in the mirror.

From here you'll just try to make things personal and fail.

If there's a pity bowl then they need to go.

 

[onechase]

He frecking sucks!! Twice now he has thrown and int late in the game that has cost us the game. Get rid of him!!!! and the Coach goes also. Take Sutterfield with them.

 

[Gooniesneversaydie]

Rhule is not to blame for Purdy literally dropping the ball when had a first down wide open.

Quarterback development is the problem along with a lack of offensive identity. That falls on Rhule. He needs to fix it, and I think he will but it won’t be this year or even next year

 

[HuskersNC]

I was forced to go to work today, maybe a good thing in retrospect, but listening on radio they said at least one, maybe two guys were open on the play. I really hope Rhule hires a full-time QB coach, at least 😮‍💨

 

[HuskerO]

At least HH won games. Purdy is 0-5

Comparing the 2 solely on wins/loses without any context is stupid and lazy.

 

[bmb81664]

We don't have a QB. They all suck.

 

[19Football19]

All of our QBs are losers.

Purdy is our best by far. It’s not like QB’s are dying to come here. He’ll be the best we’ll get every decade or so. Who are the stud WR’s with all due respect? Purdy is good like his brother with talent around him which isn’t changing. So he’ll look like a hero and then a dud.

Agreed. You can't change the minds of these whiny women who second guess EVERYTHING. THE most annoying fan ever is a douche bag that plays Monday morning quarterback EVERY play
You can tell most of these whiners have never coached at any level.
And agree on the NiL checkbook needed for a QB.

If this retard likes him, you know he sucks ass

 

[Pennsyhusker]

All three quarterbacks are just flat-out awful. I would send all three packing and pick up two or three real quarterbacks in the portal. Been a long time since I have seen such terrible play from our quarterbacks. They cost us this season.

 

[hephusker]

No defending him today. Two gawd awful fumbles - and the worst INT in NU football history…send him packing

I still like Nutsmasher in the Wildcat as our base offense..

 

[Yantzeee]

Bulls^t. Rhule and staff did not throw that last interception. Purdy had to be smart with the ball. Instead, he just throws down the middle for an easy interception.

You don’t know shit about football or leadership. When your coaches aren’t cool under pressure, how the hell can your players be. We saw how cool the staff was when they couldn’t even get in a play in the two minute offense after the coleman bad. That’s 100% on the staff. Get a play in fast , keep the TO and that changes everything from a QBs mindset.

but keep making excuses for the coaching staff. I can not help people like you who can’t see stupid

Am eager to watch what they choose to do, as some actual purchases seem imminent. Rhule (to me) pretty clearly took a shot at management this week, and couldn’t be more enthusiastic about it. He’s a smart guy. Allegedly.

BUT, if they choose to not, and it’ll need to be BIG AND OBVIOUS, we’ll deserve to and I’ll earnestly hope for empty seats and abandonment by donors. Leaves a bad taste in my throat, but donation to this football program last few years has been a pretty Rotten investment. Lesson in Capitalism.

 

[Wasker77]

At least HH won games. Purdy is 0-5

Neither one of them are FBS, Power 5 quarterbacks. Seriously, Name one P5 team that would take a chance on Purdy, HH or Sims as their starter next season? No team is going to take any of them. It would be dumb to risk it. Not until the Huskers get better quarterback talent will they start winning consistently. I doubt if the Westside kid is good enough to come in next year and take over.

 

[GBRforLife1]

I’m sure this one somehow wasn’t his fault

F*cking loser

Curious as to what you thought the outcome would most likely be before the game?

He didn't take a shot at mgnt. Wasn't even talking about Nebraska.

 

[Farleyhawk]

I like Purdy...

No. His brother has a brain and doesn’t go full fetal position under adversity. I watched a bunch of ISU games. Brock balled out and can put a team on his back. Chubba doesn’t have the right stuff.

As soon as I heard purdy was starting I bet the iowa moneyline

Just like I did last week with wisc -6.5

Easy money

We may as well have forfeited like I said as soon as I knew HH was too hurt to play

 

[rrdd2021]

I’m done blaming these players. This is a coaching issue

I'm an outsider who had NO sides in this game. This was strictly on your BONEHEAD QB - not Rhule. Hes has no business being the starting QB at Nebraska. I still can't believe he let the clock almost run out and then threw the interception on the very next play. Just total BS

 

[drubendall]

100% accurate.

Hey, I am not making excuses for this staff. Bad playing calling, subpar clock management and not putting the players in position to win is quite evident with this staff, but that last interception is all on the shoulders of Purdy.

So you expected we'd lose. And then when that happens you act like this?

You’re right

** clears throat **

Aw shucks maybe next year chaps

 

[Wasker77]

It is hard to defend 0-5 if that truly is Purdy's stat as a starter. I sure hope the Huskers do not get a mercy bowl. I need some time to recover from all these dumb-dumb losses. I think these three quarterbacks need to just slide off into the abyss.

It is.

Next year will be his 5th as a P5 qb

Still looking for that elusive first W

We all want improvement. The frustrating part is it feels so close and then they screw it up all over again.

Maybe. But I’ll take the guy who actually wins some over the one that wins none. That should be obvious but for some of you, oddly it’s not

In combination they lead the nation in turnovers. There is no "Maybe".

 

[litespeedhuskerfan]

Last INT not withstanding...I thought Purdy was the best player on the field...but I am still in disbelief that happened. Even if he completes that pass, it does us zero good, we still need more yards for a FG and we are almost out of time... I'm into the acceptance stage, and starting on my third beer

 

[beaglehusker]

Classy

Don't forget the FG kicker while you're at it

 

[scarletred]

Haarberg or a transfer

Hopefully behind a different OL coach and with a different playcaller

Haarberg isn’t better than Purdy..

the so called fumble he was trying to pass it by pitching it..

Still blaming Rhule the past two the ay we handled the games near the end of regulation..

 

[SomedayHusker]

That’s funny, a few weeks ago you bet me that it would definitely be HH. Not a transfer.

Looks like you’re already welching. Not surprised.

Hope you didn’t lose the Christmas money on purdy today, dumbf*ck

What was he looking at throwing that pick six against the Seahawks. Has to be play calling
