"Brock" is a cool QB first name and "Purdy" is great for how easy it is to generate banner headlines.

So far Bryce has air mailed both of his third down passes to open receivers.

QB names should be succinct without gimmicks. The Colt McCoys of the world stand no chance to be a quality NFL QB. The length of the first and last name should not exceed more than 4 syllables. Watch out for QBs whose first name is two syllables and their last name is one syllable. The Derek Carrs of the world will burn you.

Other things that matter with QB prospects that's a direct correlation to success: how many teammates congratulate them after a rushing TD, how hot their girlfriend is, how much dawg they possess, and can they ball?.

I don’t like when qb names that flow like Michael Vick, Patrick Mahomes, and Cameron Newton are shortened to Mike, pat, cam for some reason

there are scared rules to QB Names and only a few exceptions get through. you need an "All-American" first name (which runs a lengthy gamut) and a fun but not too ridiculous of a last name...unless it's VERY ridiculous and then it actually helps (think Roethlisberger...who would have been a disaster if he went by Benjamin and not Ben)

Dan Marino? one of the best QB names ever. he would have absolutely flopped if he was Daniel Marino. Joseph Montana? Thomas Brady? dogshit!

but then you have the exceptions like Matthew Stafford. by all accounts he would have been fine with just Matt but he pushed the boundaries and stuck to the full name

Brock Purdy is a succinct and stout name and it flows perfectly. names like Jimmy Garoppolo and Teddy Bridgewater are almost arrogant in their attempts at being great QB names and thus they could never reach the elite status (unlike Joe Flacco, an absolute layup of a great QB name)

a great QB name has to be something you can wistfully imagine Pat Summerall slurring during a late 90s broadcast as a crowd roars its approval. JP Losman never stood a chance
