QB Brock Purdy Thread

They want the narrative they originally heard and believed to be right? It certainly can't be how he plays. How consistent he is. How great he processes, makes the right decisions and throws accurately. I'm sure it can't be that. I'm sick of these guys. Especially other teams fans. "He's just in the right system." "He's lucky." "The NFL will catch up to him."

I find it so funny that Brock played exactly the same as he did last year in 8 games (very well), and NOW, after one more game, everyone is declaring he's the real deal. I don't get it.

If you don't like Brock hate, I'd avoid twitter if you aren't already.

WOW, the stuff on that gets regurgitated on that platform...especially by other team's fans before we play them.

No it's even other friends. Who mostly watch other teams. Have rarely seen him play. They just have no idea. They are hung up on his draft status and what it's named, his size and stature, and his very young boy face (LOL). They just don't believe. Mostly they don't even watch him and have no idea he plays like Drew Brees. But they annoy me. It's bugging me now. Dude is phenomenal. The real deal.

Does he just have to keep winning? Win a Super Bowl? What will shut these fools up?

I do have family members that are Raider fans that think Brock looks fantastic and are jealous.

I was worried about some of the hits that Brock took yesterday. That fumble that he managed to grab behind his back really concerned me. He really had to contort both elbows to accomplish that.

There came a point in the game where Shanahan really dialed the offense back. I didn't see Purdy attempt many more deep passes, but also noted some of his short throws came up short or were a bit off target. I just hope that isn't due to any elbow damage. I suspect the 49ers won't say much if there is a problem, unless it becomes apparent.

Yeah why did Darnold come in to take the Victory formation snaps, so Brock's fantasy numbers won't look bad (-1 rush yards per Victory formation snap)?

LOL I knew one of the former Jimmy Club members would comment on that. Hey, he's a good quarterback. Always has been. He's just not at Brock's level.

Yeah, the "IT" factor with Purdy has no way to measure or prove, but you can see he has it. Jimmy's good, even guys like Goff and Carr, but when you watch them play you can see Purdy has IT.

Jimmy has an "IT" factor too, but it's the kind of "IT" that will make your girlfriend leave you and then make you shake his hand after he bags her.

Thought it was pretty cool. Wonder if his career will help that school's recruiting.

Btw, in that photo he's giving an estimate of the size of his C.
