Kittle knows. 
But but but Purdy was like Jimmy G in his limited sample size……righttttttttttt. Everything is similar except
Purdy has way better mobility
Purdy can extend plays for big gains
Purdy will go deep if he has to and keep defenses honest
and MOST importantly we scored what almost 8 more points per game with him.
All these Lance supporters can't deny these facts. I wanted Lance to work out and if Purdy is not a great qb then we can pivot to Lance and I'm sure he will do a solid job and still make us a yearly SB or at least playoff contender.
Who is saying Brock should be benched lol? I don't think anyone disagrees overall that Brock didn't earn the right to be the leader in the clubhouse and get first crack at maintaining the starting gig (when completely healthy and had considerable reps to play).
Overall Brock & Jimmy were pretty darn comparable. For all the people that loved Jimmy, not sure why you're offended by that comment now? Doesn't mean he can't develop or anything…overall the stats back it up. Brock is a little more mobile back there, it's not some super power thing though.
IMO some of us think that the best outcome is that all 3 QBs stay on the roster this yr because we've seen what happens to SF QBs. It's a long season and no one knows how it will turn out. Personally, I don't think any of the QBs have earned the right to play through poor play either. Not sure what that means as far as sample size (or how long one guys gets to play though it) BUT if Brock doesn't maintain that level from last yr. He will get benched at some point…unless they feel that they have zero chance to win with the other two…and if that's the case they shouldn't be on the team anyway.
