Old article, I know, but I love Purdy's mindset revealed in this article. This is our QB whisperer in Kyle Shanahan saying this.
"I think he's got the perfect demeanor in that he's hard on himself and it's not phony," Shanahan said Monday in evaluating his young QB. "He believes that he can make any play, and he believes he should make the right play, and if he doesn't make it the right way, he is disappointed at himself because he believes he's capable of doing that. And then so do we, so I love someone like that because they're not going to take the easy way out. They're always going to put the pressure on themselves, and that's what gives him an opportunity to reach his max potential, and I think he's done that his whole life, and that's what's got him to this moment. And that's what's going to keep him going in the right direction going forward."

Love it. Not too worried about the mental, though injuries can affect that, even the most toughest of cookies. I think one of the things ppl like about him is yeah, he isn't phony and just works hard. Mentally, so focused. Seeing him prep/warm up for the Raiders game, honestly looked like an elite athlete. The whole team looked unbelievable. We had a team that defo could have won the SB.
Though, feels like too many variables rn, just when we were getting consistent. Urgh.

.
I am hopeful but we shall see. He also has youth on his side, not like he got this injury at 40, so probably helpful with healing and such idk.
