Love Brock and loved his 2nd half yesterday, but LOL.

I stand by it consider he had 4 TDs in a playoff debut and 5th was the best play of the game to BA he dropped it. Well over 300 yards and should be 5 TDs in playoffs that's in the stratosphere of best games. I will die on this hill

I agree. that was his best game as a 49er.

lol this kid is amazing... stakes get bigger.. plays even better

I still had some doubts before yesterday, but the kid is legit. Really excited to see how far he can take us this year and for future years. Sucks for Lance, I like him, hopefully he can develop well, be solid backup, and we can trade him in a couple of years. But this BCBs team now.

Lol no they are running Kyle's offense. It's heavy play-action with a ton of in breaking routes. It's concepts he's been running forever. Nothing is different, guys are STILL getting wide open. Difference is Brock can make plays when s**t breaks down. He's not taking the first read then pooping his pants if it's not there.

Yeah, I really think it's the same offense but Purdy attacks the plays differently. I love Jimmy but players like jimmy, Geno, Dak etc - they're all good quarterbacks but also game managers (good ones). They take what the defense gives them, meaning they don't push the offense down the field or typically go for tight window throws.

what Purdy is doing is wayyy more than just "handing the ball to play makers" - he's making plays and giving our guys opportunities to make big plays. We are scoring so much cause Brock is aggressive and confident, while also being smart with his high football IQ to mitigate turnovers. I really think we finally found the elite qb we have been desiring.. and he's on a rookie scale contract for 3 more seasons..

yea, mostly this. were changing how score. making plays to cross goal line instead ofnot crossing and getting 3 points. the play calling is the same the results are different.

one of the things thats blowing me away is how much of a difference scoring tds makes as the game wears on. it takes 3 field goal drives to beat one touchdown play. three. yesterday laugher was OVER 8 minutes left in q4. no opportunity for shanny to get conservative and blow it. 41 17. thats a 3 td + 1 fg difference with 10 minutes left. if we kicked field goals ( a la sanf fran from 2017-2021) the score is 29 - 17. two bombs to metcalf, and we LOSE. huge difference in mentality. its wild

There was only like 2 or 3 posters who really wanted that.

I think there are more than 2 or 3. Kyle is going to let them compete. How is Trey going to get better if he's not allowed to compete. That doesn't mean he'll win the competition. That's highly unlikely at this point but they may need him next year if Purdy gets hurt. Let's hope they compete in camp and both of them get better.

I see no reason as to why they can't compete in camp. It's about about competition and improvement. Some posters afraid Brock won't win it out…I mean if "that should be it to rest" lol?

Man, you know I have been down with Trey since we traded up to third, but the amount of improvement we need to see from the young man to catch up with Brock is unfair to expect from someone as raw as Trey still is. He's gonna have to...
A) get healthy, and...
B) work really hard on every aspect of playing quarterback in the NFL

I don't think he can possibly pass Brock up due to the setback of the injury, but there's no way we should get rid of him without trying to develop him to the point of meaningful competition, as I've seen some saying. They're both cheap, which is a huge advantage to the team. I'm starting to feel like Purdy might be a star in the making though, which is not a bad problem to have.

i don't attach myself to any of these players or what we did to get them.. i just want the best player at the position and to play well. If it's Brock, Lance or whoever the guy is, so be it.

Good luck taking away a scramble out of the pocket with a huge downfield throw.

It's been done before with mobile QBs. Now it's not something you can eliminate but you can ganeplan for itwith a spy or keeping DE's out wide.

I get it but guess what happens when a team starts designating a spy to stop him from rushing. You think we can rush the well now lol.

you do know that Kyle is not playing QB right ?

Jimmy has never played to the level that Geno and Dak have played at.

An amazing Jimmy G / Trey Lance offensive performance would yield ~21 points.

On a bad day, a Purdy-led offense will score ~28 points.

This throw was terrifying

Football Gods was on our side for sure. I believe just a week ago Diggs picked off a pass exactly like this one. I'm sure we will clean this one up in the film room this week because to get #6 we can't have these throws in these next few weeks. https://t.co/dSc0FGlt5A

— Larry Grant (@LarryGrant95) January 15, 2023

Not sure if intended, but that pass dropped low really helped not giving Diggs a chance at the ball. I like to think so from Brock to protect his receiver.

Should have been placed up the sideline. I feel like I saw 4 or 5 balls hit a defender in the hand's yesterday and people in here are acting like it didn't happen lol. He ran an offense with the most stacked players in the league and with an amazing play caller.

I'm not s**tting on Brock, I'm team BCB & I think he made some amazing plays, plus he has this team rolling…but I think he's been getting away with some stuff right now too.

Odd, tho, NY, that all the ooooppppsss and near misses that Brock had in first half, just melted away in 2nd half. The uncertainty, the missed targets, a misread or two…all gone in 2nd half. Maybe the "letdown" many were expecting was the first half. Because in the 2nd half Brock seemed to do everything right. On CBS pre game this morning, Boomer said "somebody needs to send a letter to Brock and tell him that playing QB as a rook is very difficult to do." He's right. Brock sure has shown what he can do, without waiting to stumble thru 2-3 yrs of errors before a rook learns how to play the position.

Bottom line: yes he was an excellent pick, but…wow, we got incredibly lucky. It is a lot more reassuring to have a rook QB starting and winning for 4 yrs in Big 10 (or 12), than to have one with one yr of small college ball who played only 1 season, and then had their football program was idled following yr due to covid. No matter the intangibles, that has seemed like a stretch. Strange how the same evaluation crew that picked one, then picked the other.

Like they say, thus are the vagaries of the draft.

That's always been the issue with the way players Iike Jimmy/Dak/Geno etc have had - if the team doesn't play well overall and have no turnovers, they have a chance to win, but if any mistakes happen or D not playing well - we have no chance.

now we are scoring at will, like the chiefs usually do, and we have a top defense. It's wild to say that "idk if anyone can keep the score with us"

yet none of our tds are on inbreaking routes. deebo down the side juan down the side. tds on scoot n' duck pocket extenders. brock is making tds out of these plays that no one has since shanny got here. its like shanny putting out the same jigsaw puzzle pieces but brock putting them together a different way. its wild

There's absolutely nothing different in this route. It's just good YAC and blocking downfield.


the only difference is how Brock is reading the field. It's high to low and he isn't just settling for his first read. He's also able to extend plays, something that's been needed for a while.

the play calling is no different.

Trey has a future in this league, how good?, none of us know. But it definitely looks like we found our franchise QB who has superstar potential and is actually showing it on the field! I haven't been this excited for the niners in… probably.. ever.

Dang dude. I know you've been a huge Lance guy for a while. Respect for acknowledging what's happening on the field and in the locker room. It's really easy to get caught up in player-specific arguments, but something much bigger is unfolding right before our eyes. I'm just going to enjoy the ride and see where the dust settles.

agree with you both.

I have one last feat for Purdy to accomplish before getting the crown - a 2 minute drill to win the game.
technically he had one to end the raiders game that Gould shanked.

Unless he completely falls apart with is unlikely he is not a flash in the pan like Mullens...at all.

Sky is the limit - not sure you could take his job away at this point.
