Mac Jones playing with scrubs but obviously hurt is balling out verse a healthy Purdy in 2024 playing with scrubs who was just mediocre. 🤔🤔🤔

Once again 2024 is not comparable to 2025.

Here is at least one comparison for 2025 which includes Purdy playing on the bad toe which clearly impacted his accuracy.


Mac has been playing hurt also since his preseason injury. Last night was clearly hurt. So let's include that too when mentioning injuries effecting the QBs.

He has been hurt. However there are different injuries. Some are a matter of pain tolerance, some are painful and may impact your ability to play the game more than others.


Give it up man. You have no idea of what or how much the injuries hurt or how they are impacting each QB. We saw what we saw. Purdy was moving better than Mac.

I'm not Steve Young but I'm sure you believe you know more than him as well...

Im not directing injuries or how much pain each QB is in. You seem to be to make your argument strong. Lol

Taking information that's available to make an analysis isn't anything new. Using logic isn't anything crazy either.

I posted the video by Steve Young talking about how much an injury to that toe impacts throwing the ball, he even mentions how some injuries are not as impactful.

We'll see what happens with Mac but if he's able to come back and play next week I think logically we can make the conclusion that his injury isn't as impactful as Brock's. It's not me claiming I'm a doctor or have inside information on each injury. It's a simple analysis given what we know about the two injuries reported, their play with those injuries and the follow up of playing with them.

You don't have to agree with my take but I've provided reasoning and information to make my point. So far all of you guys who are having an issue with it aren't giving anything but "you're not a doctor" or "you have no idea what you're talking about" etc...

How do you know that doc?

Why don't you try to google it champ.

Your medical prognosis is in a google search? Really?

This is a Brock Purdy thread. Maybe worry less about me and keep your discussions to the topic at hand?

Agreed so stay on topic and dont claim you know anything about the effects of Brocks toe injury as it relates to his accuracy and performance.

Difference is I've posted information related to the impact of QB accuracy with that type of injury. I've brought up how his accuracy wasn't an issue vs Seattle before the injury and provided information actually related to Brock's play.

You've simply brushed off what I said and offered no opposing take. You can't attack what Steve Young said so you didn't even address that and concentrated on me.

No we can't make a logical conclusion. Last week the team said Brock was healthier than Mac Jones. Brock was out there and played bad. Mac was out there yesterday limping around trying to throw up, arm cramped up, pants barley on and played great.

Just stop. You know absolutely zero about his injury status or its impacts and niether does Steve Young. No idea of severity, how it feels, when it was re-injured. Shanny cleared him before the Jax game, not on the injury list. and Purdy stated he would play if he was ready. According to Purdy, it started hurting after the game, not during. Brutal.

listen, Not my fault you can't keep it real and before you try to swing at as I'm some Brock hater, go look at my takes in on Mac.

I don't give a s**t who's the QB… In fact I want it to be Brock because we paid him.

Lol dude did you listen to Steve Young though? How about talk about that? Or how about ask that Dr you know that you have boasted about. Sorry but I dnt see grouping injuries together as a "critical response". Next time, I will give a long-winded essay on how injuries are not the same. Wait, no, I won't lol

I'm not claiming what I'm saying is factual but to me the logic does check out. If you think otherwise I'd love to hear why.

I don't trust this team when it comes to injury reporting. We have a large track record of that being the case. Now maybe Brock was healthier than Mac during last week's practice but he clearly wasn't healthy. That goes along with the difference in his accuracy during that game as compared to the Seattle game, especially before he got injured.

I posted Steve Young talking about the injury and the impact it has on QBs when it's on the planting foot. Other similar reports are out there for you to check.

I don't expect Brock to use it as an excuse. I don't expect the 49ers to basically act like they let him out there too early given the fact that he re-aggravated the issue and at minimum missed this Rams game, and likely more to come.

We've seen Brock play well when hurt and it's a matter of pain maintenance - like the Seattle game on TNF his rookie year. We know he can play injured. I do believe this particular injury impacted his accuracy as compared to the Seattle game. I don't believe it's logical that somehow in 2 weeks Brock forgot how to throw the ball accurately.

That's why to ME it's a logical conclusion. To me the issue in the Jags game wasn't his decision making. It was his accuracy.

I mean I don't think that's what most are saying in here…for me I just want Brock to see what Mac is doing and get back to doing that. He's our QB

Combine the take what the defense gives you with the natural playmaking when things have broken down that Mac can't provide.

That doctor…you mean my wife? lol

again there's degrees to "turf toe" and PCL injuries. No one knows the severity of either outside of the fact that both have missed time.

I'm not the one proclaiming one is worse than the other, but acting like one matters and can be used as an excuse, while the other can't sure as s**t isn't being objective.

no one is asking for an essay…just keep s**t real and understand it's okay to be critical of your favorite football player, he's not gonna get upset.

Brock plays like s**t = he's injured, someone else threw the INT or his line failed

Jones has dealt with all 3 of those things and not lost

Turning the ball over kills a team

But you know right?

Show me his accuracy issues being like that before the game? You can't.

Now tell me the last time a team rushed a player back from injury then basically blamed the play on the injury?

You forgot how Brock said he wasn't sure if his mechanics were affected by the injury when asked if it caused his passes to sail in the game(and during practice). I'm sure because he didn't outright say no you'll believe what you want to believe and rather think that 2 weeks off made him forget how to throw the ball properly. Something that isn't an issue after he was out from his elbow injury...

Adrenal is a great pain-killer.

The fact he had to have a steel plate in his shoe to prevent his forefoot from flexing should tell a lot about the injury.

Try walking around without bending your forefoot. Now put a non flexible plate in your shoe and see if it is easy to ignore it. Obviously, I no serious in that suggestion. I'm only pointing out that Purdy was just being Purdy - tough guy trying to play through pain - but former players like Steve Young and Tom Brady pointed out that particular injury will impact your accuracy. It's about like trying to walk on ice but never being able to plant your front foot in a normal fashion,

Carry on...

Steve isn't a doctor. His injury opinion doesn't mean anything

He's talking about the impact of the injury on throwing a football...something I'm sure he knows a lot more about than doctors, including and respectfully NY's wife.

It's a discussion of mechanics. We can all look up what turf toe is and how it works. We don't need Purdy's doctor's update to put two and two together here.

As Steve mentions an injury to the toe like that on the throwing foot impacts QB mechanics and forces them to account for the injury which leads to passes sailing more. Somehow Purdy who has a toe injury to his throwing foot - sails a lot of his passes in a game after the injury happens.

Sorry but in my book that logic 100% adds up.

Still waiting for one of you to show me Brock sailing those passes like that before his injury so you can tell me I'm crazy.
