How is he overlooked lmao? There's plenty of tape on him. He was with us for 6 years...If he's so good as you claim, he would've been signed to AT LEAST compete for a starting job. Worst case as a bridge QB. 31 other teams said no thanks, and one team took him as a backup. But I'm sure you think you just see something that no other NFL FO person does in Jimmy. I mean ffs, you did make your new account into the dumbest name I've seen on this forum. On top of that, your username is a complete oxymoron.

There was also plenty of tape on Rich Gannon.

Some players get better with more experience, Garcia, Gannon, Warner, as examples. Some reach their potential much quicker. Jimmy got worse by the year lol. I guess you could hold out hope that he'll figure it out when he's near 40 like Gannon did. GL!

Also, FYI, Gannon wasn't some polished / pocket QB coming into the NFL, like Jimmy was. He was more known for his athleticism. When the Patriots drafted him they wanted to convert him to a WR, and he said no and got traded. So him taking longer to develop is not surprising. Know your history "Football Expert"

Garcia and Warner got worse with experience. What are you talking about? Garcia and Warner both wound up backups after their original runs of making Pro Bowls, until they became starters again.

Somehow, this is an unacceptable route for Jimmy to take.

I'm talking about how teams buy into certain narratives.

What's funny is many fans who bash Jimmy think Jeff Garcia was some amazeballs QB. He sucked in Cleveland and Detroit and was a backup on the Eagles.

31 other teams have bought into a narrative that Jimmy isn't starting caliber?

But somehow that narrative will change because he performed solid against a Hawks team that had zero to play for outside of Genos bonuses in what amounted to a preseason game?

Wtf are you talking about. Garcia spent like 5-6 in years in the CFL or whatever league he was in before being signed by 49ers. After he left us he had 3 stints in 3 years and was constantly injured. If it wasn't for all his injuries during those years he would've still been good. It's not like he got worse, dude was injured.

Same with Warner, played several years in a different league, had some great several years with the Rams, then injuries started happening and wasn't healthy again for 4 more years following that. Both players were being forgot about because of their age / injuries, they didn't just get worse like Jimmy did.

You really have no clue at all what you're talking about. Done lol. Helped get this 8 pages closer

Jimmys foot still hurts from 2022. Made him washed.
Jimmy G literally carried the Rams at the end of the season to the 4th Seed, can't hate on that.

McVay: Jimmy we need you to go out there and do your best.. We're the 3rd seed and don't want to play against Daniels. So can you get us that 4th seed so we play against I see dead people Darnold?

Jimmy: No Problem

Are you seriously this daft?

We're talking about getting better vs. worse in the NFL with experience. Jimmy obviously got better in New England with experience, then even better in SF before the injuries ruined him.

You were saying Jimmy got worse with experience based on his NFL trajectory, but that's also true with Garcia and Warner.

Just LOL @ blaming Garcia and Warner's declines on injuries. Yeah, because JIMMY wasn't injured or anything.

It's not like Jimmy tore his ACL in 2018 and had such a bad high ankle sprain he went on IR in 2020, then injured both his finger and his shoulder in 2021, then broke his foot in 2022, then injured his back with the Raiders in 2023.

But poor Garcia and Warner with these phantom "injuries" you just pulled out of your ass. Garcia was playing like garbage before getting injured in Cleveland, and nobody knew of any injury with Warner for most of the time he was sucking. People speculated on thumb problems but there was never any evidence of this. He was not injured for 6 f**king seasons.

"Wasn't healthy again for 4 more years following that." Please do tell me what these "injuries" were. Because unlike Jimmy, nobody had a clue what was wrong with Warner when he fell off a cliff after that Super Bowl.

The reason Garcia sucked when he left the 49ers is he couldn't play outside the West Coast Offense. It was the only scheme that he could get away with his limitations.

The reason Warner was never the same player after leaving the Rams is he didn't have Mike Martz calling the plays. As far as why he fell off before then...that's something nobody knows.
If only multiple time Pro Bowl Qbs were able to play in multiple schemes like Jimmy G can.

Uh, they couldn't. Garcia sucked every time he was outside the WCO.

Unlike Jimmy Garoppolo, who looked good in both NE's and SF's schemes, which are different schemes.

He played 3 games there. Talk about a short sample. Then with same coach he was so awful he got benched.

Are you suggesting Kurt Warner was bad in Arizona?

McDaniels isn't Belichick. McDaniels brought Belichick his water whenever he was on Belichick's staff. McDaniels on his own is a moron, like all Belichick assistants. Belichick intentionally hires the dumbest assistants he can so they can't learn anything from him and use it against him on other teams. That's why he has no coaching tree success.

Warner wasn't good in Arizona for years. They kept benching him for Leinart.
