Trey not a captain when he was anointed starter.

This just tells you either how much shannahan thinks of purdy, or how he really thought of lance.

Good lord... Your smoldering, scintillatingly sensual feelings for Jimmy burn so strongly you STILL hate Lance even though he's nearly two thousand miles away.

Whatever their feelings about Trey Lance, their attitude suggests them to be the charter member of the Non-Partisan Anti-Kyle Shanahan coalition.

Go out and make them eat their words, Brock.

Who said that, I haven't seen that.

A few pages back someone posted The Ringer's annual QB rankings.

And lo and behold, Brock is ranked 32nd, 2nd to last in starting QBs. Here's a list of QBs they have ranked higher than Purdy:

Desmond Ridder
Anthony Richardson
Baker Mayfield
Kenny Pickett
CJ Stroud
Bryce Young
Mac Jones
Jimmy G
Jordan Love

Not that I care what some moron with a greasy keyboard thinks about Purdy. But it is pretty comical that a guy who played like a franchise QB for half a season's worth of games, and has never not played at that level, is thought of as nearly dead last.

That one. Plus many of the talking heads picking Seattle to win the division is basically "Geno is better than Purdy" comments in disguise.

Well you see, if George Kittle is out there that makes the QB read defenses better, process faster, play with more poise in the face of a rush, throw more accurately… etc.

Yeah, you don't have to have everyone out there in order to play good. If Brock needs all pros at every position just to have a good game, then he himself is trash.

having good talent around you makes it easier, but he can still play well if dwelley is in there, or anyone.

What some fail to realize that even if a play doesn't work, doesn't mean the QB didn't play well.

That's why I never understood that argument for Trey. Trey struggled to do the little things right, that makes a qb play well.

The argument for Trey was that if/when he got the little things, he had a LOT more than that to add.

But I will die on the hill and say Trey is not here for one reason: Brock Purdy. Brock Purdy played like a Pro Bowl QB at a fraction of the cost. That short circuited any desire for the team to wait for Trey to develop. That's BY FAR the most important factor here.

I pretty much agree on this point.

The Trey injuries did also play a role. Having said that, Purdy looks like a generational talent. If he can handle BlitzBurg the way I think he can, he'll be setting more records and breaking more records this Sunday. CMC is going to be a big part of calming that blitzing defense down. I also think Brock's arm strength is being underrated. The blitz will force Brock to throw deep in this game.

I am as big a Purdy fan as anyone, but a generational talent? Lets pump the breaks shall we?

The Real Deal Captain

You can pump your breaks..as BP flies on by and wins at least three SBs lol.

Geno better than Purdy? Pretty sure BP is undefeated so far against SEA lol. And with a broken rib. Brock makes Geno look like a has been even when the guy is injured. Truth lol

Lol right. This is being a homer to the extreme.

Probably the 'experts' on ESPN who never played a down in their life

One thing no one in the media talks about in regards to BP is the fact that Kyle's had a full training camp and off season to mold and design the offense around his strengths and limit his weaknesses after having 8 games to learn about that.

Last year BP came in to an offense that was meant for Jimmy, who wasn't nearly as mobile or willing to throw outside the numbers or downfield. Now that Kyle's had time to pour over the film, rethink everything and work with BP for a whole training camp, do we really expect the offense to be the same? People argue "Oh, well the NFL has TAPE on him now." as one of their arguments to why he'll regress. Well, I've got some news for them, Kyle has tape on him too.

I don't think much will change in terms of play design for Brock that was already in place for Jimmy. The main differences were in the playstyle, not so much the plays. On top of the upgrade in mobility and escapability, Brock was more likely to look downfield and not simply take what's in front of him like Jimmy did. I think the biggest change for the offense is having a full offseason where CMC can be integrated into the offense.

How long will it take for Purdy to finally get national recognition? He was the lowest ranked QB in the playoffs last year, which I understand based on the unknowns. But this year the knock on the team is STILL that they don't have a QB. He's currently ranked at or near the bottom of the league on nearly every site. So does he have to go through the whole season to finally get some love? Playoffs?

Some will give him props but the haters will credit kyle and his weapons on offense for purdy's success

i dont think Purdy and the team really care about the outside noise. im perfectly fine with the media talking heads sleeping on him.

Ratings before rookies take an nfl snap are worth as much as Kyle's qb draft notes. So basically nothing. Purdy is the guy. He stays healthy and we have a great chance of winning every game. He has X factor talent that can't be trained. Confidence and leadership. Love that he is our guy. The talking heads can shove thier rankings. Keep him underrated. Who cares as long as he keeps performing like last year. Btw. I am a Trey fan and not so much of a kyle guy.
