I was referring to the dread we all felt when he dropped back to pass during that stretch of play where he threw int after int. Same dread we all felt when Moody lined up to kick a gimme.

This is what i dont get. He stunk in '24. He stunk to start 25. Everyone was posting how they wanted him to get back to pre '24. He finally does and the "receipts" come out.

Lolol yup.

I've never doubted Brock since his second start vs Seattle Occasionally, he will have an int that makes me smh but naa, never doubted him as a qb.

I do wonder though, even with his talent..if we will be able to get an SB..with everything else going on with the team, changes, age of some players, injuries..etc. It's a bummer, cause I have always believed this is the qb that can get us the Six. Cruddy that his talent probably won't be fully embraced by others until he gets an SB..but if that never happens..still some of the best football I have seen from a qb in decades.

I am still frustrated with Shanny's decisions vs Seattle..some were so bad and stupid..I wondered if this sport is rigged again. You got the qb of your dreams..and what the hell do you do..on 4th and 1? Two scores down? I still can't believe it lol.

Should have won it in Vegas. It was there, right there.

Dang, I will eat crow. I forgot how emotionally charged I got to make those comments above. But I will own up to it. I'll say I was a huge supporter in the beginning, but then soured on him after the constant mistakes in 2024. I defended him against people until I didn't have a defense anymore in 2024. After week one, I was feeling like nothing had changed. This year, he proved he is the guy, and a top 10-12 QB at MINIMUM.

Even if he stinks next year, he's already proven to me he can turn it around.

All good. Respect you for owning it. We're allowed to change our opinions with more information available.

I think that Seattle game translated even better in hindsight. Obviously their defense got better as the year went along but still - playing in Seattle against that defense then losing Kittle and JJ in that game with Puni coming off the PCL injury and Trent being rusty and we moved the ball on them consistently.

Even the last 2 games Brock was far from our problem. Box score looked ugly in both games but he tried his best to get us points in those games. Not much cooperation or help unfortunately.

Brock hasn't been the issue at all this year, he's been a baller. Now, last season, he definitely cost us a few games from pressing too much. He got away from the feeling like he had to make something happen this year.

Huge difference. We saw more calculated risks than just YOLO stuff.
