Brock has been having these issues since the latter part of the 23 season. It seems teams have adjusted and he's been inconsistent at best. This may unfortunately be who he is at this point. I really want Brock to succeed and be our guy, but right now it is not looking like he will be.

Not sure if it's adjusting or those "missed" INTs are actually being caught now.

every 49er fan should want him to be the dude. I think we need to keep our expectations in check with him as a player. He's not that high end trait guy. There's things he's simply never gonna be able to do…his margin of error isn't as great as a Josh Allen type of guy.

I keep saying it but he's a gunslinger without a gun, his mindset is Dan Marino or Farve, but his actual talent level is more Andy Daltonish.

hopefully he gets his s**t together because he's the guy going forward for the next couple seasons.

I was angry about his performance and thinking he needed to be pulled but I will point out that Kurt Warner is actively defending his play last night. I trust Warner knows a bit more about qb play than most fans on here. Hopefully, he is right.

He was shipped off for Bulger and his career was over after his stint in New York

You do remember that after his stint in New York he went to Arizona and took them to the Super Bowl, right?

Dude is talking s**t about a HOF QB. When did our fan base turn into the ignorance level of Seahawk fans?

You don't need to be a HOF QB to have an objective view of how he played last night. He was very inaccurate. He was late on some plays, he had opportunities to make safe positive plays that would have given them 1st downs….2 of his 3 INTs were on early downs.

For the record while I was highly disappointed in Brock last night I do believe that will be an aberration and not the norm.

Just one of those games...it's all about bouncing back and shaking it off mentally.

Of course the problem is...Cleveland's defense. I hope Brock gets back on track cuz we cannot turn the ball over in that game and hope to win IMO. It will be a low scoring game since we always struggle vs those defenses and odds are Brock will be getting hit while throwing so his decisions better be on point.

Like someone was saying earlier, it wasn't so much his decisions as much as it was accuracy, which is why I think the toe is an issue. I just wish we rested him and not put him in that Jags game but I have said that like ten times lol. Time to move on haha. When all else fails, just keep feeding CMC and Kittle lol. Our D is really starting to roll though, I am excited about that. So, things might not be terrible but I am not confident in a win. With weather conditions, crazy stuff can happen, let's just hope it goes in our favor lol

I think another factor of brocks poor play is knowing he has a poor defense to support him. Last night they played lights out, but they've been a revolving door for weeks since the big time injuries. Brock has always been used to relying on Fred, Bosa, and the D to help out and shut teams down. He doesn't have that hence his unusual aggression and inaccurate throws. I think that's one of the biggest contributors knowing you have to do more than ever before

In warner's opinion he played well minus those 3 plays and he mostly excuses one of them. He also argued that it is magnified because of those interceptions and purdy is probably easier to intercept because he isn't launching rockets. Just passing along a HOF qbs opinion in case it impacts views of the game or position.

I'd still prefer Purdy making the smart play but maybe he is like 95% of the time.

I think Warner probably sees a lot of himself in Purdy.
There is zero argument about how Purdy played in the first half. He was awful, and there is no excusing it.

Then the second half, Kyle started calling much shorter routes and quick throws, and what do you know? Purdy played well in the 2nd half. All he needed was the Mac Jones playbook, and he completely turned his game around.

What I would like to see is the opposite. The short quick throws early to establish rhythm, and then hit them with the longer stuff as the game opens up. That is the WCO in a nutshell. Do that more please.
I hope Brock turns it around and button things up. His INT rate has steadily increased last season and into this season.
QB play around the league seems to be down compared to years past. Brock seems to be running into defensive schemers that are outfoxing him. He needs to adjust because the league has adjusted to him.
