I agree with this.

Insufferable.

Some people can't see past the tip of their nose. Brock is still a young QB and reps are very important. No need to needlessly feed a stupid controversy.

People gotta get clicks and views. When Brock is healthy he's the guy.

Can you imagine Mac with the hot hand get this team on a winning streak. Then Brock comes back in time for playoffs and makes us one and done. The fanbase would s**t all over the team. I suspect Brock will be out until the bye. If Max takes this team in a serious run til then, just can't imagine Kyle ripping away the keys and handing them to Brock.

If Brock's out for an extended period and Mac can keep this up then it just depends on who Kyle sees as the future

This would be a rough one for the front office to absorb after having to move on from JG after giving him a record contract, then moving up to draft Lance and totally whiffing on that. Moving off Purdy after giving him the big extension would be 3 straight mistakes. I'm not saying they're going to do it but it would be a hard decision to make if they did.

I'm not sure what you mean by "critical moments". Every time our line gets beat that's a critical moment. Hence Mac and Brock both getting slapped around like rag dolls. Mac already broke a knee and Brock got stomped on. This will happen multiple times every game between now and the end of the season. Hit after hit nick after nick ding after ding. No clean pocket in 2025 sad to say.

Not if Mac wins you a SB.

We'll trade Mac if we win the SB this year with him. Just like the Eagles did with Foles. Purdy is our QB no matter what Mac does. If they didn't have that conviction, they wouldn't have given Purdy $250 million.

Personally I don't have an issue with playing the hot hand.

I hope we're in a position where that situation comes up because I don't want to root against Mac while he's a 49er.

However as impressive as Mac has played I haven't seen anything from him that I believe Brock can't replicate but I've seen things from Brock I know Mac can't replicate. When healthy to me Brock is the better QB.

We've seen teams stick with the hot hand before but I can't recall many situations where a team pays their QB big money, he gets injured and then a QB on a short deal comes in and takes over the job.

The examples I can think of in recentish history are obviously Tom Brady who was in his 2nd season in the NFL and Kap who was also in his 2nd year with us.

Russell Wilson took over as a rookie from Matt Flynn but that wasn't really a move due to injury either.

I just find it hard to believe that everything Brock has on tape for this team that he's getting benched even if Mac is undefeated(which would be amazing)

We're 1-0 with Brock not playing the full game with that injury and has an impressive playoff resume under Kyle.

Bledsoe was 0-2 under Belichick that season and like 6-10 year prior(if that)

Alex was a tougher one but Harbaugh didn't have a lot of investment in Alex. No big contract lingering and offense was being held back how Alex was playing. Kap was on a cheap deal and offered some crazy options on offense.

Brock can't make the throws Mac can make. Mac seems to process faster, more decisive, and gets the ball out quicker. Just a better decision maker currently, which is a surprising regression for Brock. Brock used to be known for this. I swear the Ravens broke Brock.

genus, you seem to be coming around brother. Slowly but surely.
