QB Sam Darnold is a Viking

Yeah, it's really funny because the article he posted talked about how special Brock is in everyone's eyes, yet he calls Brock average. Like he posts an out of context quote from Young as though it's some evidence of a conspiracy to suppress Darnold by neither of the guys running the team. Very strange stuff.

Weird stuff. Is this guy actually arguing that Darnold should be starting over Purdy or that he's better? I don't get it with some people man, it's like all of Darnolds past and 50+ games got excused and doesn't exist once he signed here or something 😂 Get over it. The team (BOTH coaches and players) chose Purdy and rightfully so, Sam will only play if he gets injured, not because he's better

Above average means Brock is the 15th or better QB in the NFL. The Ringer ranked him 32nd (which I disagree). Many people on the 49ers Reddit and here ranked him 20th. Are you disputing that or do you think he's a top NFL QB on par with Mahomes, Herbert, Hurts, Burrow, Jackson, Rodgers and Allen?

Lol you're the one who's trying to form some stupid ass conspiracy. Everyone else thinks your full of s**t too, maybe it's you and not everyone?

He's ranked higher than Darnold and your boy, which is what is actually relevant in terms of our team.

Most intelligent people aren't sure exactly what he is yet.

Darnold was equal or better than Purdy last year on all of the advanced QB metrics on a much, much worse NFL team (CPOE, EPA, ypa, yac, INT rate). Darnold can make all of the throws Purdy made last year. Purdy has yet to make many of the throws Darnold made last year and even this preseason.

There's a reason Greg Papa, the most connected 49ers outsider, thinks Darnold will challenge Purdy this year. He's been talking to Shanahan.

Greg Papa has been a huge Darnold guy since his USC days. Considered him an Andrew Luck type prospect. Would gush over him during his radio show.

To be fair to Greg, Darnold has a ton of physical talent. What a lot of people don't seem to understand is that physical talent doesn't make you a great QB, nor is high end physical talent needed to become one.

Enjoy your highlight videos though, lmao.

Darnold threw two deeps outs to Ronnie Bell and Chris Conley in preseason. When have Purdy or Jimmy ever thrown something like that? Why hasn't Kyle called those plays for Purdy and Jimmy but he has in preseason for Darnold?

Makes a new account and spends all day talking Darnold lol. This guy must be his agent or a close friend/family. Nobody in their right mind thinks that Darnold is better.

Pray we never have to see Darnold take a snap unless its because we are blowing teams out by the 4th quarter.

You must be one of those people who think correlation is causation. What if Purdy was on Carolina last year? Would he put up the same numbers with the Panthers as he did with the 49ers? Don't think you think that having Kittle, Deebo, CMC, Jennings and Aiyuk and the #1 D who intercepted balls for him inflated his passing stats? Be truthful.
