From the beginning of last season, I was on the "play Trey from day 1" train. But what Purdy is doing is demonstrably better than any Niners QB has done during the Shanahan era.
Any offseason talk is irrelevant, other than the fact that Purdy shows that Jimmy is redundant and expensive. It also seems unlikely for the FO to pursue another QB in FA.
Our QB's going into 2023 season will be Purdy and Lance. Unless Purdy wins a SB and/or continues on this pace to the SB but loses while putting up a huge game (like Josh Allen last year), it'll be a competition.
We'll have two very promising young QBs and the money to play Bosa, etc.
And people are complaining??
The Niners are in a great QB situation this year, but it would be unfair to either Trey or Purdy to ride the bench. One of them needs to be traded in the offseason for a 1st or 2nd round pick based on Jimmy's value when he commanded a 2nd when he only had 2 starts under his belt.
Neither one will be traded, especially if Purdy helps this team win it all.
If Purdy wins #6, I'm sure Saleh will be on the line offering a 1st and Wilson for Trey, and the Niners would listen.
I'm not sure Wilson and a 1st is worth the dead cap and downgrade at backup. You've seen how our QBs get hurt every year. We need a backup who isn't a guaranteed loss. Also, I'm also pretty sure Saleh is going to be sending roses to Jimmy in the off-season.
Jimmy isn't a good fit for Mike LeFleur's offense as he lacks mobility and doesn't make plays down the field. At this point in his career, he's nothing more than a bridge QB to help establish a winning culture, not a someone who'll make the Jets contenders who'll hurt them past Miami, NE, Bills or KC to become contenders.
The frick you talking about? LeFleur was literally our passing coordinator for four of Jimmy's years here.
lol.. Yeah I think Saleh would be happy with a Jimmy and Mike White situation.
We'll see though. If Tom Brady doesn't retire, I could see the Jets trying to get him.
The Shanahan offense is a run heavy scheme reliant on play action and downfield shots. Shanahan has gotten away from that more each year to accommodate Jimmy's strengths and weaknesses. He's a dink and dunk passer more suited to Josh McDaniel's short passes to the slot receiver scheme.
Both Lance and Purdy have run Shanahan's real offense.
This is true.
But no reason that Mike LaFleur can't adapt his offense around Jimmy's strengths, and with Shanahan and Scangarello, was one of the three coaches that Jimmy worked directly with these last couple years.
