I'd rather everyone keeps on criticizing, undermining, and underestimating Brock and the 49ers. We should continue playing with chips on our shoulders, continue being humble and being the underdog, and continue moving under the radar.

If we beat DAL, there is no moving under the radar.

Yeah but I bet you even if we beat Dallas, there will still be a lot of non- believers.

He already beat Dallas, IN THE PLAYOFFS. And they still refuse to give him his credit. He will need to at least get a pro bowl on his resume to shut the haters up

Agree 💯% or win the super bowl.
If Mike Florio has children they must be embarrassed to all kingdom come. I knew he was dumb but he's really dumber than f**k.

Agree about the lotto aspect of Brock getting drafted. Anytime you can get a (potentially) generational talent like Purdy, that's pretty much a lotto pick. I'll give a ton of Credit to Kyle, though, for basically cutting Sudfeld and keeping Brock.

Can we please pump the breaks for gods sake? LOL

Generational talent? Yeah, Brock is not a generational talent. As good as I think he is and expect him to be, this is not a realistic label for him.

Nah. All gas, no brakes. When you finally see what he sees, you've missed out on a lot of joy.

I don't think you and Giedi understand what generational talent means lol.

Really? I"ve watched Joe and Steve. I don't know what else to say.

To me generational means upper-echelon of the HOF QBs. Guys like Mahomes, Brady, Montana. It's certainly within Purdy's ceiling thusfar, but far too early for that moniker. Guys like Brees, Aikman, Elway, Young, Favre, Kelly, Wilson, etc all all examples of HOF (or HOF caliber) QBs that I would not consider generational. Being generational means you transcend the game, and bring it to a new level.

I think any time you make the hall of fame, you are a generational player. But that's just me.

Generational refers to once in a generation if I'm not mistaken, so basically the best QB of that generation. Do you think Jim Kelly was a generational QB?

I like his channel and agree with almost everything. I am not sure I buy that the Deebo TD was a happy accident on an underthrow.

Same. It's hard to tell. Baldy thought it was good, but JTO probably more credible.

I'm good with it working bottom line, lol.



They probably practiced the same route and pass all through camp

Almost had another one here.

Nicely Stepped up into the pocket & He's been avoiding that backwards bailout/spin to the left also..

You can teach an old dog new tricks I guess lol

So, we've seen Purdy in about 11 games now (excluding mop up last year and Eagles game with no elbow). So far he's yet to have a bad game, which to me is unprecedented. I think he'll have one at some point soon, and this place will probably implode that day, but for now let's not worry about that.

So, if this is our QB—this guy who has led this team these last 11 games—who do we have? Let's extrapolate these 11 games out for a career, and assume for the sake of simplicity that Purdy performs no better or worse; he doesn't improve, nor does he regress. The Purdy of today is the Purdy of the next ten years. What does that give us?

I think this gives us a HOF QB. If this is Purdy's baseline, this level of play, at what point is it okay to start acknowledging that he's got HOF talent? After 16 games, two seasons, three? Obviously it still feels so premature, but this guy won't give us a bad game to sink our teeth into, after 2/3s of a season's worth of games. Crazy.

He's Hall of Fame if he plays like this and he will probably get better.

He will get better if you give him a better OLine.

Right now they are a Tier 3 OLine. (Source - NCommand )

Now if you give Brock a Tier 1 OLine (a line that would give Brock 3+ seconds in the pocket) Which YACBros says is too Draft Captial intensive - Brock definitely can transcend whatever QB level he's at now. Personally, I don't think the 49ers OLine is far from Tier 1. The left side is elite (Trent, Banks, Brendel) it's Burford and McKivitz that draw the OLine grades down a bit (for now).

Somehow you'll have folks riding Philly's d**k still

Let em ride it.

Freak athletic traits are only a means to an end. Purdy gets the same results a different way. The path does not matter, only the destination. Enjoy it.

Agree 💯%, for sure. But on the positive side, he's actually in the National conversation now for top 15 QBs in the NFL. So his play has *definitely* moved the conversation from *pretty good QB picked in the 7th round* to *he may or may not be a top 15 QB.*
Haven't seen it brought up but the throw purdy made to start the 4th quarter to cmc was a DIME

he stepped up in the pocket and threw it to where only cmc could make a play on it but he dropped it.

Purdy's PFF grades are weird to me too.

Week 1 @ Steelers - 73.2
Week 2 @ Rams - 65.5
Week 3 vs Giants - 61.1

That would rank him 15th overall among NFL QBs for PFF. He certainly is playing better than 15th.

Not necessarily. Give it time,....it'll come. We dont have to anoint him. He'll earn it.

So do almost TD's weigh as heavy as almost INT's?
