He probably is that and will be that.
Not yet, at least. He's got to have supremely good numbers and not have the impression he's being carried by the team. But if he keeps stacking wins; he'll move up slowly. He's probably fringe top 10 now.
"Impression" is just a personal vibe. The tape, results, box score and advanced metrics say he's nearing the elite tier. The national vibe will always languish behind. Can't want for laggards to catch up. He's there right now. People just need to come to terms that we are witnessing history.
Agree 💯%, a lot of folks who don't watch 49er games are still stuck on his 7th round draft status. Those who do watch 49ers on occasion, see all the star power on the 49ers and assume its the team that's helping him amass those stats.
It will take a super bowl win to shake those folks up. Hopefully once that happens the national narrative will catch up to reality.
