If Brock throws 49 times he will get intercepted 3 times at least.

Well, let's see. For us to know the answer to that question Brock would have actually had to play the game, wouldn't he? Anything else is just speculation where people would put forth whatever argument suited their particular bias. It's a question you can't know the answer to because it would be impossible to recreate the unique circumstances of that specific game.

It's like the Smith vs Kaepernick Super Bowl argument. Could Smith have won the game if had started? Maybe, I tend to think so, because I think he understood how to play the position better than Kaepernick did, which I think is what could have made the difference. People on the other side of the argument will come back with, well, the defense gave up 34 points, yes they did, in that iteration of the game. But you can't change the most important offensive player on the field and expect the game to play out exactly the same way. Maybe the offense would have been more efficient under Smith which might have led to longer, time consuming drives that used up more of the clock and kept Baltimore's offense off the field. The fact is you can NEVER KNOW, so it seems like kind of a pointless exercise.

Kap carried that defense to that Super Bowl after Justin Smith got hurt . Dude was a machine that year and we lost because Jim Harbaugh didn't give the ball to Gote on the goal line. I talked personally with Kendall Hunter and he told me eyeball to eyeball that with five yards and three carries ain't no way Frank wasn't gonna get that ball over with Haloti Ngata knocked out the game

I like Alex but dude was 1/13 on third down vs NYG the year before and there was a reason Kap took his job so let's not rewrite history

I am thoroughly impressed with Mac Jones thus far and Kyle takes a lot of smack from fans here but he is EASILY a top five coach in this league. I can't name five guys I would have ahead of him

Kyle has lost to only 2 of the greatest qbs of all time in Brady/Mahomes. Thats the only reason he isn't in HOF coach territory.

He talks about sustaining drives in 1st half when that's exactly what Kap did. Two were FG drives (typical Alex drives) and one was killed by the lmj fumble. He wasn't going three and out every series in the first half, but Alex fans still tell themselves he was and throw the defenses struggles on his shoulders

That's how they have to spin it, because deep down they know there's no way in hell Alex is even making it to the sb with that defense

Can Mac 10 grip a wet football tho? 🤔🤔🤔

Everyone talks about that one obvious roughing the passer call where that rusher put all his weight on Mac, but they didn't even call this one too.

Refs were definitely not on our side on Thursday night at all

How has he come out of that game with the Rams - any update on his injury?

Have to respect it. Dude left it all out there and still played well. Dude probably barely knew where he was but managed to pull out a W.

that kind of heart makes the rest of the team amped up and want to win. That flows through to everyone - if you see your qb going through this and still fighting, how can you complain about being tired? Fight through it. It's awesome

Glad we got him for 2 seasons.

There was at least 3-4 really egregious roughing the passer calls that weren't called on the Rams. I don't mind ticky tack stuff not being called but brutal plays like that need to be called, IMO. Even if it's against the niners.

I believe Mac is going to be our starter for the next 3-4 weeks, Min. so we need him to stay healthy. He can't keep takin this brutal beating or we are going to end up with freakin Martinez starting for us.
