I thought he did fine myself. Like most rookies he had his moments and also has areas to improve. I can't think of a single area where we have enough evidence of uninspired play. I can't think of where he was "very slow" on anything as one gabe as the starter in a monsoon seems insanely stupid to judge.
Pardon the interruption but the "monsoon" excuse is not valid. Go back and look at the game. The "monsoon" started with 8 minutes left in the game. Prior to that, the rain was light to moderate but not unlike many other games in which the rain had little effect on the play.
Lance looked like the inexperienced player that he is. He missed reads. Missed simple throws - his first throw in the game was the same kind of throw this board has skewered Garoppolo for - an overthrow of a wide-open receiver who was on his way to a house call with a more accurate throw.
Don't get me wrong, I want the 49ers to keep him through his rookie contract (I don't think we have a choice) and give him as many opportunities as they can while still keeping winning as the #1 priority. As for now, we have a QB demonstrating all the intangible qualities that are vital to winning. All this talk about Lance's upside is just smoke in the wind. The team loves Purdy and any attempt to install Lance just to "give him experience" will not go down well, IMO.
