When the chips are down and the game is in his hands he fails us. Purdy can carry the team. Jimmy has proven he can't. The kid is special and has a winning spirit. I don't expect him to fail. When jimmy is in, I expect meltdowns and turnovers and when they don't happen I breathe a sigh of relief.

That sounds like a you problem, lol.

Trading lance is a stupid idea. You're not eating all that cash and putting all your chips into Brock. This team doesn't care if you can't accept that drafting a QB requiring playing them

We're gonna need a backup anyway.

Of course he was setting up easy throws for Jimmy. Brock's emergence just shows how much he was propping up Jimmy all of this time. Seeing how much better a 7th round rookie is performing than him, it's hard to say if Jimmy would even be a starting caliber QB in another offense without Kyle. After watching Brock, it's hard not to be mad that we wasted so much time on Jimmy now that we know how fraudulent he was.

As for Trey, sure Kyle probably set up some easy throws for him too, but the difference is that Trey didn't have Kittle or CMC for his games. Trey was also always intended to be a multi-year developmental project, so I'm not surprised that he was still struggling to find a groove in this offense due to his lack of experience.

The difference is that Brock is a far better quarterback than Trey, in almost every way that matters. Trey is going to have to put in a ton of work to even be worthy of a legit qb competition next season.

Exactly, Memphis - Trey is going to need all the breaks he can get, to even put up a competent competition to Brock. He's got a lot of catching up to do.

I don't think you've seen enough of either QB to make such a certain declaration. They didn't even play with the same teams. If you took Kittle and CMC away, do you think Purdy would be doing just as well right now? I don't.

Purdy has played well, especially relative to the quarterback he replaced (it's likely we'd be 7-8 or 8-7 right now if Jimmy hadn't gotten hurt), but he's not perfect. He has the highest rate of batted passes of any quarterback right now. PFR gives him the lowest on-target accuracy percentage of any QB with at least 50 snaps. He's yet to throw for more than 235 yards in a game. He might turn out to be the guy, but it's way too early to crown him.

Uhh, what?

You think we'd have one win at most since Jimmy's start against Miami?

Go, Brock, go! Keep up the good work, bud.
Batted stats may correlate with teams throwing blitzes and stunts at the rook to an extent.

If you take Deebo out of those games that Trey played in this year and last year, does he find the success that he had? Kittle wasn't even very involved in the passing game until Brock Purdy. So who knows what kind of impact Kittle would have had on Trey's game? As far as CMC, he is a QB's best friend in the passing game. But Jimmy was able to win a lot of games in his career here witout him. Why do fans try so hard to defend a QB that has very little to zero impact on this team?

A QB who was drafted 3rd overall should have had more of an impact on this team after two years than a 7th round nobody QB. The fact that there is even a debate about it says more about Trey than it does about Brock. Trey has a lot of catching up to do. The cat has been pulled completely out of the bag and the excuses are going to run dry soon if Brock keeps playing the way he is.

No need to trade Lance whilst he's still developing as a QB.

It's way too early to give up on someone you gave up a small fortune to acquire In the first place.
Purdy second half numbers 11-13 179 yds 2 TDs
I'm so so happy Brock Purdy is playing this well. I don't see any evidence though that Lance cannot do everything Purdy does and maybe even better. It's a fact that Kyle used Lance different. I wonder if next year I'm the QB competition he just lets Lance be a QB rather than Lamar Jackson type. Lance is good in the pocket an great when the pocket breaks down.

i think this is the best thing that will happen for Trey. He will get to showcase his talent, determination, competitive spirit & improvement during a true QB competition. Even better if he wins he will have the respect of the Locker room. The job won't have been given to him. He's missed valuable reps but his ankle wasn't near as bad as others. It was just a broken bone. I'm looking forward to this very good problem our team has now. Purdy bring us #6!!!!

Listening to everyone's take on whether to trade Trey or not. I'm starting to lean with keeping Trey is probably the way to go. He's under a reasonable contract the next 3 years. Brock and him would make a nice young nucleus the next couple of years. I think that's the smart way to go.
