This is what I am talking about, it's the persistent, he's MVP level, but he should give us a deal on the contract. Notice another example. C'mon Brock, think of the pay that winning confers, and take less.

I say, I hope they pay the man, he should get every cent he deserves.

He should take every penny he could get… though I hope he doesn't because he's kind, low profile, loves Jesus and all that jazz.

As a Christian too, I would still want to get absolutely paid my full worth, but I would be glad to find a fair structure to the deal that would allow me to still get paid my fair market value while also giving the team flexibility to maintain a strong roster.

I'd go with the transition tag that allows other teams to set his contract. Don't negotiate against yourself like all the other teams. If the deal is team friendly then match it, otherwise take the two firsts and roll. Can't believe the Giants didn't do this with DJ or the cowboys with Dak. It's the best option for a position where the contracts are out of hand.

CMC? There is 2 year left on his contract. We should just let it play out. There is a reasonable to good chance he will be somewhat done in 2 years. It is sad, but that is the career of a RB. You look at Ezekiel, Kareem Hunt, Dalvin Cook, Tod Gurley.... I think CMC can be last a bit longer because he is such a good receiver, but he probably won't be close to his best in a few years.

Christian is the kind of player who can transition to slot receiver when he outgrows the RB position. He's that intelligent and already would be one of the better route runners in the league. I think he has a long career beyond RB, as you pointed out. Just like his pops

Why the f**k are you guys talking about former players in the Brock thread?

So lame.

As lame as whining about haters incessantly when they don't exist.

He was mentioning his faith not CMC, lol.

I jokingly threw in Brock's love for Jesus (along with kindness and general low profile) as a reason to believe he would be willing to take a team friendly deal.

Christians are on the paper chase as well :)

Yep. Looking forward to Brock having to prove himself again next season. Who do you think we should bring in to compete with him?

Prepare for Brock to be attacked by a masked assailant and hit in the knee.

Yes he exposed Jimmy as well. And of course he exposed Trey, why he got traded lol. Some just can't accept it and admit they were wrong (as I did with Jimmy). Instead they prefer to pretend to root for Purdy, but come out with the truth in spurts when he's struggling.

But yes, please continue to defend people who say Purdy is "trying his best" and will "have to prove it all over again next season." Comedy.

And how did he expose Jimmy? Jimmy was what he was. A good, mid-level starter who had the ability to play both really well and really badly. He had an elite release, helped his receivers rack up yards after the catch, and was, by all accounts, a terrific teammate who helped the franchise get back on the winning track. He didn't have a particularly good deep ball and a penchant for throwing kind of head scratching picks, but in his five years with the team he helped them get to three NFC Championships and a Super Bowl. Seems like a pretty good return on investment to me.

Brock is clearly better in many regards. He sees the field better and is a far more athletic player than Jimmy was. He doesn't have Jimmy's quick release, which I think is something that got Jimmy in trouble from time to time, but he makes up for it by throwing with terrific anticipation. He is also more aggressive down the field and throws a more accurate deep ball. All that being said, I have no issue with Jimmy's time here. He never seemed to have a bad attitude, was always a professional, and always seemed to give his best effort. Sucks that he wasn't able to bring home the trophy but that's how it goes sometimes.

Given the way things played out, it seems pretty clear in retrospect that while Jimmy might not have been as good as Brock has turned out to be, he was always better than Lance, which seems to be what most of the back and forth was about. But, since neither of those guys are here anymore it's hardly worth discussing. Hopefully, this is the year the team finally gets #6 with Brock at the helm. Go Niners!

Good post.

Really think the QB conversations would be better, and more accurate, if each player was judged on their actual worth to the team and not so much in comparison to each other.

cam is very knowledgable and wise. we should listen to him more. both life and football takes

I understood the frustration with jimmy, but never the hate. We got the best qb play that we've had in a long long time out of him, while winning a lot. Unfortunately, never what we hoped but he did a lot of good things here. I'll always appreciate Jimmy during that time because he was by far our best option and we always had a real chance to win.

Never cared for Lance the QB, but I did like Lance the man. Unfortunately, that being a great person doesn't mean you'll be a great player. My whole issue with playing Lance was that I thought he was way worse than Jimmy, he never gave us the best chance to win while Jimmy was here.

i had no issue moving on from Jimmy, just didn't think Lance was the right choice to do that with.

i never thought for a second to bring back jimmy once I saw Brock out there. I'm even more grateful that we landed Brock. Finally a QB that I love the character of the man and his play as a football player, equally.
