QB Brock Purdy Thread

Getting jimmy back for the playoffs is very important. We want him to be available if we need him.

back in 2001 when Brady replaced Bledsoe - Brady got hurt in the AFCC - and Bledsoe helped finish the game and led them to a victory. We want jimmy back just to make sure we have a functional QB if something else, or more, injuries happen to Purdy.

Insanity is when you get somebody good, you try to get rid of him as fast as you can.

Both of these guys are on their rookie deals. They'd have to prove they are a turd before you'd want to get rid of one of them. Brock has already proved he's not, and Lance sure hasn't shown he is.

Next camp, we can't tell either one of these guys well, do your best, but even if you prove you are better than the other guy, you are not starting. By definition, that's a competition.

Both of these guys have about four starts. That means neither one would bring nearly as much in a trade now as we'd expect later.

You need two quality quarterbacks if you have an opportunity to challenge for a Super Bowl. Having two on rookie deals--priceless.

Physical attributes are easier to see early on in a career. Mental attributes are more rare and harder to improve out of an apptitude range. Therefore, I value proven mental acuity over physical attributes. All the greats have it, and all the greats do not have top physical attributes in spades.

Let's go win a Super Bowl. Did I mention we're number one in Power Rankings? Somebody's not making up ceilings on our only quarterback.

Yes, but I don't think we're going to have him, and if we do, he's going to be rusty. IMO, we lose anyway.

Digesting the last few weeks has me thinking this:

1. Purdy is a find. He's proving to be a viable starter in this league.

2. let's not get crazy- this roster only needs a competent QB. Anything more is gravy. I'm not knocking Purdy - in fact I think it shows....

3. .....Jimmy G was limited and afraid to go deep. He has improved but he's 31 and injury prone.... Purdy has utilized the skill makers on this offense way better than jimmy has. So yea...

4.... Jimmy is gone.

5. Lance's ceiling is technically far higher than Purdy's so I think they give him a real shot to get the experience he needs. The only way to know is to have him play and see if he has it. Unless Purdy xarry's us to a Lombardi I see it being an open completion with Lance getting the nod.

l feel like Kyle shouldn't have Trey run or design the offense anything different than it is now. He should have him learn the offense we use now. I believe if and how Trey improves, especially as a pocket passer, the offense will naturally evolve with it regardless. Exciting times.

I disagree, Trey will be Brocks backup next year, unless he does a nose dive the rest of the season and it's an early exit in the playoffs. Brock is ready to go now, Trey needs more time to develop into what Brock already is.

That might happen even if Lance turns out to be good. It may be Purdy is simply great. Or he may turn into a pumpkin. Time will tell. But conceivably we could end up in a position where Purdy turns out to be elite and we trade Lance to the Packers in two years.

Yes. And I don't mind him getting on the field in short yardage situations to QB sneak.

Even his scrambles look meh! That's supposed to be what separates him and he doesn't really even look good doing that. His best runs are the designed stuff.

He is okay running the ball up the gut. Kyle tried to run him outside a lot last season. Trey wasn't very good getting to the edge which I am sure is the reason why Kyle switched up and had him running up the gut this season.

brock purdy was born in 1999. what could that mean? that was when steve young retired. brock purdy is here to carry on the torch that steve young passed down in 1999. lets win it !!!

I'll do you one better, the Dreamcast released in America just 3 months before BRock was born

I say it on here often. If you're 30-35 and under - you've never seen the niners really be good unless you started watching football at like 3-6 years old.

In our generation, niners have been a laughing stock of the NFL for a majority of that time. I didn't see my first 49ers playoff win until 2011 season (early 2012).

its been so many decades since we've won anything besides second place.

It took 32 seasons for the 49ers to win their first NFL title. Then they won 5 in 14 years and were in the playoffs nearly every year. Ten win seasons were expected. Now it's been 27 years (counting this season) since the last title. It's time guys!

There was a cartoon in a national newspaper I saw in the eighties following our defeat to the giants in the NFCCG, where a confused-looking child was asking his father 'Is it still called the 'super' bowl if the 49ers are not in it?

Trey has a good reputation for his running, but it's not 'scrambling' as such. More opportunistic (or planned) speed and power based running for yardage.

I actually think his running so far has been a bit underrated because he has had decent runs stopped just short of the 1st down marker on several occasions, which has been a little unlucky.

Nothing impressed me about Trey Lance coming outta college. Jack of all trades, master of none, and to me that doesn't warrant three 1st round picks. Anyone saying otherwise, well I guess homer glasses are hard to take off. I think I would've felt better about Trey Lance coming outta college had he been a three or four year starter. Anyway enough about Lance and Jimmy G, I'm just hoping Mr. Irrelevant can be Mr Consistent.

Nothing impressed me about any of the guys coming out that year. I'm just glad the jets didn't take Lance and leave us with Wilson (who looked good in college).

No Virginia, it is not.

So far I was wrong about Wilson and Mac Jones, but right about Trey Lance.

So far.

So far.

So you are 0-3. maybe QB evals aren't your thing.
