QB Brock Purdy Thread

When they do block for him with a clean pocket he is real good.

Came through when it counted. If we had lost though no doubt we'd be blaming him. Oline played well and he made some awful decisions. But came through in the clutch and glad that he's our QB

so as much as I want them to improve, those are tall tasks for any o line. Just play better than week 17.

Sure and those d lines aren't going away. They have to look to upgrade wherever possible, especially LG and C.

Just the Seahawks man handled us but we were also missing Trent. Seahawks really brutalized us, Brock was getting hit before he finished a 3 step drop. Lol

i hope we kick their effins asses. Wouldn't that be great

Trent will make a difference. So will Pearsall if he can play.

The big problem with the last Seattle game was that without a deep threat, Seattle had the whole defense within 10 yards of the LOS. That made it easy for safeties to help stop the run and plug up the short routes. It was no coincidence that Kyle got DRob going deeper early. Pearsall will be even better. The two of them will change the game. Let's not forget, Robinson was pretty good with the Rams.

Must have Pearsall vs Sea to get open quick in man to man on those inevitable 3rd and 6-9s

Pocket presence on the game winning TD pass was elite.

I thought he was gonna get sacked. Great feel for the rush.

On the game-winning drive, Brock Purdy was 5 of 7 for 42 yards and a touchdown, while also picking up a first down with a 5-yard scramble.

Purdy now has FOUR game-winning fourth-quarter drives in seven postseason games to his credit.

While technically correct the 4th one is a bit of a reach.

Brock would be the greatest if he can just stop these wtf ints. He plays great in clutch, just stop those early to mid game mistakes and we will be hard to beat!

That being said Great Win and thanks for locking in when it mattered as I wanted, lets keep this W ship going!

No doubt YOU would be blaming him. Dont speak for the rest of us who are better at analyzing football.

I will be honest. I didn't like the two interceptions. Brock you can throw away the ball. You don't have to force everything. The first one specially on first down IIRC, you can't do that in a PO game.

That being said, the Niners just won a game at Philadelphia against an almost 100% Eagles Team.
The Niners offense had a really good game against a Vic Fangio Defense. Ask Josh Allen and the Bills if it's easy to play against that Defense.
And Purdy against a ferocious front seven was always calm in the pocket. He had some big throws on third down, only one sack taken.
He used his legs and everytime he does it, he kills the opponent.
The guy was clutch on the last TD drive.
Again no Aiyuk, no Deebo, no Kittle unfortunately, no Warner, no Bosa, no Greenlaw and yet the Niners are again in the Divisional Round.
He's showing that indeed like Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch said he's worth every dollar he's gonna be paid.

He reminds me so much of Tony Romo. The improvisation, pocket presence and making throws in tight windows that he has no business making, the forced throws into tight windows that he has no business attempting that end up getting picked off. The high level performance in the clutch that makes you forget about the crazy INT he made a few drives earlier.

IMHO, he's even better than Romo was and Romo was a hell of a player. I think Romo had a better arm but he was less athletic than Purdy. And I feel that it was "easier" to sack Romo.
But mentally wise, I agree with you Purdy has this Romo attitude of doing things he should have no business doing. At least Favre had a fantastic arm so you could understand why he would do some stupid things. Romo less and Purdy even less.^^

But hey, Shanahan is fine with that. He will take the fearless calm pocket passer / good scrambler everytime over the uber talented QB that takes no risks because "Oh s**t my interception number.".
It's the PO. If you don't want to take risks might as well not play.

At some point, there's a reason this kid is 5-2 in the PO and 8-2 this season with a team ravaged by injuries.
Maybe he's actually making his teammates better than they really are I don't know.
