Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, Los Angeles Rams

It seems that quite a few "fans" cannot see Jimmy Gangsta as a quarterback who is not only a good QB but, a potential Super Bowl winning QB. And I will always believe that the 49ers should be celebrating their 6th Championship. His numbers were good enough to win 13 games, with the 3 losses a play or two away from being wins. Just like the Super Bowl a play from being a win. EVERY QB HAS A BAD GAME OR TWO!! Jimmy Gangsta's just happened to come at the most inopportune time. I believe the lessons have been learned and that multiple Championships are in store

Jimmy had a bad quarter when it meant the most. He'll learn and move foward - can't wait for the Revenge Tour to get started.

His numbers were good enough to win 13 games but he didn't win 13 games the defense and running game won 13 games. His td/interception ratio was pathetic on a running team and receivers are having to make too many adjustments during routes for me to be convinced he's elite. He isn't elite at all in terms of passing the football. PFF has Dak ranked ahead of Jimmy and Prescott is horrible

The OLs of both DAL and 9ers had something in common. When push came to shove, neither OL protected their QBs in pass pro when it counted. I liked JG's 3rd down conversions, tops in the league, which is a good measure of "clutch ness". I think JG did well when the chips were down. His TD/INT ratio was not best in the league, but was still fine. In the last qtr of SB, the interior OL was like old times with kwame Harris...the swinging gate, aka, matador blocking. If the interior OL can't keep DTs out, then it doesn't matter who your qB is. Both DAL and SF suffer from that.

The weak KC D, turned out to be way off course. They had studs who put JG under pressure alll game but esp in last qtr. We have a top flite qB. Now is the time to protect him at the interior OL slots. Both OTs did well. The OGs/ backup Center ....have to do better. JL did well having backup depth thruout the team. But you can't have starters sitting on the bench. And we got hurt at interior OL on pass pro.

Agreed that Jimmy actually did post some good numbers that hid some bad throws but I can't turn on a sports talk show without hearing the possibility of Brady to the Niners for one year and I gotta admit I'm a little intrigued. Draft a young understudy with a bazooka for an arm and we can easily compete yearly with a much larger repetitive window

No thanks. I would rather stick with the strategy Kyle and Lynch are using then the opinion of a Johnny Come Lately Straight After the Super Bowl fan, with all due respect.

Agree.

You forgot to mention all the positive quarters he had all season. Hence the empirical basis for our optimism.

Well Jimmy had one bad throw. Our O Line had a bad 4th quarter and thought it was a swinging gate letting all the rushing bulls in. It is clear on the film what happened and it certainly wasn't Jimmy playing badly. People forget the clutch throws to Bourne in the last 10 minutes. What QB is going to do anything when he is about to be smashed by linebackers and DTs breaking threw running at him at full speed within a second of the snap?

Enough with this nonsense about Jimmy having a bad 4th quarter. How about laying blame where it should be laid... the interior O Line particularly our replacement centre.

This x a million.

I've never seen so many people trying to defend a QB that doesn't need defending.

If you watch the 2 min drive when we were down by 4, our first play was a run up the middle for a first down. We should've kept running. Especially bc they were blitzing up the middle. The zone run is made for beating the up the middle blitzes.

I'm not sure getting Brady would be the best move or not. Jimmy is a good QB, and it's really hard to get rid of a QB about to be in his prime for Brady who is not in his prime but still better than Jimmy. Honestly I wouldn't be mad if Brady was the QB because he still has enough savvy and league respect to likely win another SB with a loaded roster like the 49ers have. No player or coach would dare say make Tom Brady beat you with his arm on the 49ers like they did with Jimmy. This last SB would have been out of reach for the Chiefs by the time the 4th Quarter came, because with Brady the game would have resembled what Young 49ers did to the Chargers in our last SB win.

The only thing with Brady winning a SB with us and retiring immediately afterwards, is would we be in any position to aquire a talented enough QB to keep the train rolling? Make no mistake if Brady were to win another SB next season on a team other than the Patriots, he would walk away having proved he could do it without Belichick. If that's the 49ers where does that leave us going forward?

Having said that I think we have to stay with Jimmy who is just good enough to keep you in the SB conversation year after year. We can still draft and groom QBs as his backups in the years to come like New England has done despite having the Great Tom Brady at the helm.

Going after Brady would be one of the dumbest moves of all time. Forget Jimmy for a second Brady wants to play until he's 45 and is looking to be guaranteed 2 years minimum. Good luck to the chumps who end up paying him because he's already diminishing and won't get any better. The fact that Bill may let him walk with no backup plan says it all.

This. Add in the fact that I'm not sold that brady is even better than Jimmy. Come on, he couldn't even beat the lowly Dolphins when there was so much on the line.
