QB Brock Purdy Thread

Just like Purdy needs to work on rolling out to his left in clean pockets. Purdy needs to work on being more accurate and consist with just throws to the right side of the field.
Purdy needs to work on throwing across the field into double coverage like he did a few times. He was lucky it wasn't picked off a few times. He did it a few times with linebackers too.

it's okay to hold players accountable, doesn't mean you don't like them

But that is exactly what he is doing when he believes that Brock will come back from a major injury to his throwing arm. He is hoping. He cannot say hope is a good thing when it fits his argument and say it is a bad thing when it doesn't. That is called being a hypocrite.

Yes, the point of his comments.. which you obviously missed... is that with Lance you don't have much else beyond hope. There isn't anything to support an argument to play Trey over Brock, at this point, other than hope.

With Brock you hope he returns healthy but there's evidence beyond hope that he should play. He played great when he had his opportunity.

It's been the crux of his argument the entire time. He didn't at all say that hope was a bad thing.

My argument has been that you don't bench Trey if he is playing well and the team is winning. That is it. If Trey is playing poorly than by all means put Brock in.

His argument is you put Brock back in no matter how well Trey is playing because Brock played well for a short stint in 2022.

Hey yacbro -have anything to say… lmaooooo I guess everyone else just has two glass eyeballs

David Lombardi, really?

Trey Lance's issues are due to footwork and timing inconsistencies. I have stated that as recently as today. Also, like I stated in a previous post not long ago. Trey has the highest dropped pass % of him, Jimmy and Brock. In fact, Trey's dropped passes are twice as high as the other two. Which is a major contributing factor in his low completion %. Just an FYI. Drops are defined as ON TARGET PASSES dropped by the receiver.

Lol why do you think his passes are dropped? Most likely cause they aren't accurate and/or touch. It's like kap when he would try to break peoples fingers on dump off passes.

stop blaming the weather and everyone else for his short comings and hold the kid accountable. He has a lot he needs to work on.

Perhaps you cannot comprehend the phrase ON TARGET PASSES? I thought it was pretty self explanatory.

I think some are afraid that Trey will actually play well enough to keep Brock on the bench. No idea why, because that means the team is doing well, but once the season starts, we'll see what Kyle does. Chances of Trey starting the season as QB1 are probably 90%. Once he's playing, he will actually have to play pretty bad to be benched. As little as people want to admit it, the capital we've invested in Trey will give him a longer leash than someone like Purdy.
Lol this idiot seriously believes Brock Purdy is only worth day 2 or worse picks

I think it's more to do with the arm strength and threat as a runner than the picks.

Lance will more than likely start and finish the season as the starting QB unless Injured or poor performance.

It sucks for Brock that he got Injured because now he may have missed out on his opportunity to become the starting QB for the 9ers and once again showcase his talent this season.

If he plays well then that would be awesome. I just don't know what makes you guys think he's going to. There's nothing I can point to from NFL or college that tells me he's even going to beat out Darnold. Let's see him show something in a battle with Darnold before we just hand him the keys to a SB season.

I've seen both your arguments. My comments were focused on you misrepresenting his comments about hope and then insulting him.

As far as your guys' overarching arguments, you're basically in agreement with some differences. You've said if Trey plays well and the team is winning, Trey keeps the job. And he's said Trey would have to surpass Brock's play for him to keep the job. It's really quite similar.

I look at starting Trey as a waste of time, not scared off it at all.

The word "well" is subjective. In my mind. That's just being a game manager. Jimmy played well. Alex smith played well in KC. Etc. idk why we would want well. Lol

i don't understand why you would want mediocrity to play when you have a guy who was balling out of control. Purdy has earned the chance to start if healthy, even if Lance is playing "well".

i just don't think well is good enough to start Lance over Purdy when he is healthy. You go with the guy who played at an extremely high level in his small sample size. That's all

What happens if Brock doesn't sustain or surpass his performance from last year? How many games does he get? Just curious.

It depends on how well he and the team are doing. He has proven he can play at that level.

If the team is losing and not scoring with him like they were last year, he would get benched for Trey.

He has shown a lot already.

Who said this? I remember having a discussion with someone about what criteria Trey would need to meet in order for Trey to keep the job when Brock was healthy. The response I received was far less than concrete and highly open ended so that the goal posts could continue to move. I don't want the team to carry any QB. I thought that was one of the biggest reasons why we moved on from Jimmy. I am, however, against inserting Brock inspite of Trey, if Trey is playing well and the team is winning.

Surpass Brock's performance from last year. The bar has been set.

Unfair expectations for even Brock. Example would be Brock's TD% which is well above elite and was even god level for a stretch of his games last season. Again, unfair expectations.

That's the bar that he set.

Well is a pretty subjective word, but I understand your argument.

You simply don't think Lance is going to be able to play at a high enough level to keep Brock on the bench, and you think the people that believe that's a real possibility are basing it on nothing but hope.

It's not complicated, lol.

Right, I agree. You let him prove to you that he can't be elite consistently. If he does that, then let him and Lance duke it out. At that point we are getting mediocrity from both anyways.

i just can't fathom not putting the guy in that's been amazing when given the opportunity. He's more than earned that opportunity when healthy, but more importantly, Lance hasn't done enough to take that opportunity from him.

Purdy did more than enough to strip Lance of the job. Not just Lance, it would of been jimmy and anyone else.
