Brock has been outstanding at everything except for throwing some dumb picks. And your solution is to start DARNOLD?

This fan base is a joke.

100% The outside view of many 9er fans holds true.
3 2nd half turnovers today
2 on the final two drives last week

that's the kind of stuff that can play him into QB2, mistakes
when trailing in the 2nd half, that's when TOs can pile up, chasing the game causes TOs

My take on Brock:

Elite short field movement and elite anticipation. He's good at reading the field in a clean pocket. Below average arm talent. And NO, his arm is NOT AS GOOD AS Joe Montana's arm despite what homers would have you believe.

Defenses have adjusted and are now playing more man coverage to just dare him to beat them into small windows. He can't do this consistently.

Maybe he might be good enough for a Superbowl if they're lucky, but the Niners usually aren't lucky. Them's the breaks

His arm is better than Montana's. You have no idea what you're talking about.

No QB in football beats defenses by throwing balls into tight windows consistently. Stat Paddy Mahomo almost never has to complete a throw that every QB in football couldn't make in their sleep, yet people suck him off.

Brock has made more tight window throws than any other QB in football this year.

The problem is Kyle Shanahan. He's a bottom 5 play caller who is regarded as a "genius" because of his name. That's it. That's the whole thing with him.

When he's not doing trick/gadget play garbage, he's running concepts that leave former QBs scratching their heads when they do film reviews.

Who was that that went on an Int pick 6 campaign? Wasn't that Matt Shaub another Kyle QB?

It would be nice if Kyle can help him out somehow, but he's just the OC.

Lol Kyle can't control bad decisions players make, or can't give the ball to CMC every play which is safest play called

Kyle need to be mentors as well as OC. Help him mentally, not just play calling wise. Go talk to him, help him settle down. Re assure him. But Kyle is a hard ass with everyone except himself.

I know no one wants to hear this name but that was one thing Harbaugh did well was talk to his QB and get him fired up and ready for a game.

Yeah man. Sometimes it's more than Xs and Os. They are human after all. Need to have them mentally right. Especially at the QB position.

not sure if KS was around for that I remember what you speak of, Schuab was passing em out like halloween candy at one point

we just aren't built to play from behind, and lose the threat of a run game, we get exposed

Haha. I tell people to stay calm and let things play out 1st. He will be getting his elite LT back soon.

But why are people so shocked that if and when you take away elite pieces from a QB,..that they no longer look elite themselves?

Per Sportrac, LTackle is the highest paid position on average by far ($9M),...followed by QB ($5M).

They get paid that way for a reason.

Do you really think he is an elite QB? I guess I am a little harder on a QB, I have seen Montana and Young been a fan since 77 I am 57 now. But I don't consider him elite and no where in the class of a Montana. Hey and I like him but man thats a stretch.
Really shocked at that first interception. There is 0 reason to throw the ball as there will be a flag 100% of the time with linemen down the field. He still threw the ball to Mitchell though? I remember similar play happened earlier in his career and he just went out of bounds and just lost like 1 yard or something. That is all he had to do just run out of bounds or just take a f**king knee. It's f**king first down man s**t if its 4th go for it all do whatever man but not on 1st down.

Same thing last week with trying to fit a tough anticipation ball to jennings when its f**king 1st down. we had three dudes at the line of scrimmage (CMC, kiittle, juice) that could easily get 5+ yards. Again it was first down.

Funny thing is people criticized him for being a dink and dunk QB now he's taking much more risky throws and we are struggling. He needs to take the check down esp on 1st/2nd down. Our team's athletes will make ppl miss and we can score tds on a screen pass much more often than other teams. Missing Deebo is a huge f**king loss for this reason only and esp to Kyle and his scheme.

Wonder if he is still concussed and just being too tough by lying the doctors to pass protocol? Definitely took another big hit to the head on the meaningless next to last drive.

We're still seeing more good throws than bad. There's no way of knowing if Darnold would have done any better. If Brock has another game like the last 3 in next time out then maybe it would make sense to start Darnold. If nothing else it would give Brock a chance to regroup and it lets him know that his job isn't secure. You have to earn it every week.

It wouldn't be the end of the world if they benched him for at least one game. Montana was benched and so was Young. They both got over it. Brock seems like he could handle it.

I agree with these TO's and the way the D is playing. This team cannot afford mistakes it will take all they have to win on a good day.

no
This is the 2nd straight week where Purdy was having a fantastic game but had 2 big mistakes at the end. Gotta clean it up.

The first pick today was on a broken play. That one is what it is. The 2nd one was horrendous. Jimmy G type sh*t that can't happen. Gotta be better.

yes he is. but I think he's been dinged the last two weeks. he is very good with TO's, but just not right in the head the last couple weeks. That's what i am thinking. Prolly should have played darnold today.
