But this is where we are. The Trey fans are so hell bent on minimizing Purdy, they are now embracing and lifting up Jimmy to attempt to make that happen. Lol it's funny at this point.
One game? I'm talking about his last 4 starts with CMC. Jimmy's numbers were legit good.
why do you ya'll resort to "Lance fans" or "Brock haters"? That's childish s**t imo. I'm in the Brock thread talking about Brock. If we're gonna go down that road why are you minimizing what Jimmy did with CMC his last 4 starts. Last I checked completing 73% of your passes, having a QB rating of 113.5, avg 230 yards and having 8 TDs to zero INTs in 4 games was pretty freaking good. Or do those kind of stats only apply to Brock?
What is your point here?
His point is that you and Furlow are no longer choosing Jimmy

Tbh, same reason you guys minimized the offensive line to elevate Jimmy.
What reason is that?
I mean, is it really that hard to piece together? Lol. Because people latch onto a player and become more fans of that player than the team. You notice some of the most ardent Jimmy cultists are gone? They have made accounts on the Raiders forums. Just like if/when Trey leaves, I suspect guys like NDSU are going to follow him to his new team.

Jimmy isn't on the team and this is the Brock thread.
I never chose any qb.
Relax Woo it was a joke, I thought the smirk gave that away lol

I just hope they don't accelerate any of the needed timeline to get him on the field, week 1

The biggest news item from 49ers OTA today is that Brock Purdy is on track to start throwing a football next week. That's about a week earlier than the projection when he had his surgery in March.

Also, many of these people absolutely thought Jimmy was average at best and yet they are defending him now. It's just hilarious the narrative they try to push and it's quite obvious. Absolutely, utterly ridiculous but hey, like I said denial can be an ugly thing

I'm out of the loop but still think Jimmy is just an above average QB and we were right to draft Trey to get to that next level. But Purdy came out of nowhere and the job is clearly his to lose now. That said, I think Lance still can show that he was worth the pick.
Doesnt need to be black and white.

Jimmy isn't their obstacle anymore. Lol that's why they're talking him up.
Brock May not be able to throw right now but there is so much, as a QB, that you can still improve on without throwing. A lot. He seems to be attacking all of that aggressively, as well as his rehab (he's ahead of schedule by approx a week). I think Purdy is going to have a significant jump, which is terrifying/exciting. I think his biggest growth will be his ability to identify the right throws and defenses better. Hopefully cuts down on the potential turnover plays (the ones that were just bad reads).
i don't quite expect him to have the same TD % but I still expect him to have an awesome one.
I'm super excited for him. The experience he gained last year was huge. His rehab will have his arm/grip etc all in tip top shape. His footwork will be improved, his film study, playbook knowledge, team chemistry will be improved. It's very exciting.

being one week ahead of schedule is MASSIVE. Since the date he was supposed to be 6 months in, would of been game day (week 1), this potentially provides some room for him to be fully ready. If he can be 100% ready one week before the season, that's huge.
im hoping he can shave a few days off of that by having a nice, clean throwing rehab. If he can manage to shave a few more days to a week off, it'll give him a 10 day window or so to get as ready for week 1 as possible and compete for the starting job. Love it.
Originally posted by elguapo:I think Jimmy is a really good QB and I liked him, but I also understand he has limitations, at least here he did. He was disappointing in the playoffs. Idc to hear all the excuses about him being injured. Yes he was injured, but that's the game. Everyone has injuries at that point in the season and if you're playing, you're expected to perform. The greats do that. Unfortunately, jimmy wasn't that like I had hoped. Tough guy and great guy, very good but not what we needed.

I concur. As long as he plays like a top 7-10 qb we will win a SB. That's all we needed from Jimmy G in the playoffs but he s**t the bed consistently as a VET NOT A ROOKIE. Remember everyone was pointing to Jimmy having the WORST 4th quarter rating in the history of the nfl (close to it) but hey, let's point out Jimmy did great in the regular season and pretend it would of carried over into the playoffs![]()
