Still wouldn't watch the s**t show but would be funny watching him get benched again.

Got dethroned by Trey actually

Rather got *injured* a lot.

The Niners made it clear they were ready to move on from Garoppolo when they traded three first-round picks and a third-round choice to move up nine spots in the draft for Lance. There were multiple reasons, but at the top of the list was Garoppolo's injury history.

an ESPN story is not the 49ers and definetly not the truth.

Injury history wouldn't create the animosity between the two parties

I like Jimmy he brought solid qb play after disappointing and abysmal results from the position since Steve Young and Jeff Garcia. However Purdy is way better, and Jimmy sucked with the dumpster fire Raiders. I'd feel a little bad had he not called the 49ers situation "weird" (then go to the Raiders of all team) and say Las Vegas was a better city than San Francisco

He had the best "49ers" career of any QB since Young.

But if we're being honest, and I'm sure some won't be, he was never as good as Garcia. Kaepernick was the better player in the playoffs and had a higher peak with the 49ers, and Alex Smith had better seasons with the Chiefs than Jimmy had with SF.

Again, I think it's fair to say all of those things, while acknowledging Jimmy had the most success from a team and longevity perspective.

But it was weird, even KS was asked and said it was kinda weird, then he said it wasn't weird maybe unusual.. but that's kinda the same thing. Drafting some guy not worthy of the NFL for 3 ones was pretty weird. Having pick 262 in the MVP race is also weird / unusual. That's why you gotta love the NFL, you never know what's coming next..

I don't feel bad for JG, he's got 2 rings, near $200m, a SB appearance, a FedEx Air Player of the Week (nominee) or two, top 10 all time rated, it's a good career

where does the sad part come in, I'm having a hard time with that
this is how careers go, you start as a prospect, you develop and earn your way to a QB1, and you have your time, it's no longer his time, he's past his time and prime

You said that about Russell Wilson too and he's played well this year with better coaching.

Shocking you don't see the irony.
