SB win or not, one of the best qbs in history

Super Bowl win or not, Brock had us in position to win a Super Bowl, he is not the reason we failed to win that game.

It's so fun to see catches being made by Evan's that I usually only see on the Arod era packers or Brady/Brees/Manning era.

those super tight tough throws/catches that are unstoppable. I feel like almost all of Evan's catches have been huge and he makes it look so easy. It's crazy how the X-WR role looks in Kyle's offense when he has an Evans type of talent.

Nice to see Brock finally have a true WR1 in Evans and possibly another in Stribling (I lean toward he will be a WR1, currently jury still out.)

Drew Lock leads the league in passer rating but Purdy is number 2 right behind Lock. He's had a great 2 games and the future is bright if you're a Niner fan.

Wait until your idol, SmokeyJoe sees you citing passer rating, troll.

Honestly the crush rush to build media hype around Brock is pretty insulting to Brock. He's healthy, got some new looks to manage, and another year in the tape room under his belt.

He gonna Brock, and as long as he stays aggressive while prioritizing moving the sticks, hes gonna make touchdowns for us. No obscure esoteric stats needed.

Brock is growing into the QB he's supposed to -- athletic playmaker who can connect on routes all over the field with accuracy and some scamper thrown in. He's the man.

And Purdy doesn't have JSN doing all that heavy lifting. You all better pray JSN doesn't get injured cuz your offense runs(or passes) through him.

That's a good point but he does have Evans and Kittle

We aren't comparing Purdy to Lock, because it's stupid. If you were really a believer in passer rating, you'd know that Purdy has the highest all-time passer rating in NFL history, recognized in about 100 more passing attempts. But unless you're prepared to argue that Purdy is the greatest QB in NFL history, I think we can put this dumb post of yours to bed.

Want to check what % of yards for Purdy are via Evans and Kittle and compare to % of yards for Lock belong to JSN?

Either way it's pretty silly to bring up Lock in regards to Purdy. Lock is playing well with an elite WR and a very good OL. He is not on Brock's level.

Passer rating is a poor measurement of how effective a QB is. It's a formula that uses completion percentage, yards, TDs and INTs. I see guys with huge ratings every week that are far less effective than players with lower ratings. INTs can have an oversize effet on passer rting even if the INT isn't costly. An INT can happen because of a tipped pass after a missed block or ball that goes off the WR's hands. Not the QB's fault but he gets dinged big time for it.

The problem is passer ratings are a based on stats without any context. It doesn't take into consideration things like available receivers, the strength of the team they're facing, game circumstances, weather, coaching, pass protection, etc. A QB can have a high passer rating without having a big effect on the game outcome. He can also have a low rating and still come up big in crunch time.

That doesn't mean a QB with a high rating isnt good. You can have a high rating and have a big effect on the game like Brock did last week but it's just one stat among many. It's not the most important one. QBR is a little better because it includes more factors but even that doesn't tell the whole story.

I don't get why the Seahawks are going to go back to Darnold when Drew Lock has looked so much better than him this year. They should ride the hot hand and not just give the job back to Darnold just because they're paying him a lot.

I've always thought Mike Shanahan was the shadow GM. I'm even thinking he has a bigger role now that Adam Peters is gone. Just saying its a possibility.

I know but some stupid team is still going to throw money at him in the off-season. He's in the last year of his two year deal. But honestly Lock has a great arm. He's had a clean pocket to throw from though and everyone knows Seattle and San Francisco can both win with pretty much anyone at quarterback. Macdonald told Drew to manage the game and he's done that beautifully. Brock has way better mobility but the plays Brock runs are all choreographed by the genius of Kyle Shanahan and play design

Completely agree
