Why thank you. But the reference was deliberate and called back to the irrational fervor that overtook 49ers fandom back in 2017 when many foolishly considered Beathard to be the savior of the franchise. This was all the rage on the "Official" 49ers board back then. Apologies if I insulted your religious preferences.

It was not about religion, more about not sounding snarky to those that supported Beathard back then.

Beathard looked like a different player Sunday night than we saw two years ago, albeit against a soft zone. The thing that impressed me the most was his arm strength. He made some throws that neither of the other two can make - on a line to the correct guy. Also, his Hail Mary at the end of the game seemed effortless, yet it was perfect. With a little luck, Kittle grabs it or it falls into the arms of Bourne for a game-winner. It was that close.

He also is the best at escaping pressure, something we have been discussing about QBs in another thread.

Like most everyone else, I hope Jimmy is fully healthy, able to move well enough to protect himself and plays well. If he cannot, CJ is my choice

Quite an interesting take from MM on Mullens vs. CJB:

Maiocco told Tolbert, Krueger and Brooks on Monday. "I do think that in the back of Kyle Shanahan's mind, maybe even in the front, I think he believes C.J. Beathard is a better quarterback than Nick Mullens.

Yeah, CJ can do some things when he has time to throw. I hope he gets the start on Sunday.

"Yes, I have (decided on who would start), but I'm going to hold that just because there is a difference between them," Shanahan said. "And if Jimmy can't go, I'd like Miami to find that out on Sunday. But I've decided that.

"We'll give both of them reps because both of them do have to be ready in case Jimmy doesn't go. But if not, you guys will find out that answer (based) on which one is not dressed (on game day)."

CJ can play in spot duty but we know what kind of turn over machine he turns into when hes out there too long. Still Mullens job I think. dude had one bad game and his Oline was not helping him at all. If we benched Jimmy after one bad game he would be an afterthought by now. Mullens is still number 1 til number 1 comes back. if number 1 plays like number 2 then number 2 becomes number 1. only if number 2 (standing in for number 1) plays like number 2 will number 3 become number 1
