Kap wasn't crap. He had some great skills and qualities, but got waylaid and distracted.

Kaepernick seemed to have no interest in improving as a qb. He wasn't very good at reading and reacting to defenses, and he couldn't throw touch passes with much accuracy. He was more interested in building his biceps and street cred than his football skills and instincts. If he could just throw a decent fade pass, the niners have another sb trophy.

I was one of Kap's biggest early supporters, but the hype got to his head and he stopped taking football seriously. We basically saw no improvements from him on the mental side of the game. Now compare that to Purdy, who came into his sophomore season and it seems like he's spent every minute learning the offense and studying defensive coverages. Kaepernick is very intelligent, but you need to put in a ton of hours doing boring work and some people rather spend their time enjoying their celebrity lifestyle. Purdy's work ethic and preparation is what makes me way more comfortable trusting that he won't comeback down to earth anytime soon.

As much as we hate on the national media for doubting brock, gotta give credit to chris canty. He's been recognizing him as top 10 since the steeler game

Jimmy Graham calls him top 5. I think he sees a young Drew Brees. Because they are the same size, great at processing, anticipation, reads and throw with accuracy. Because he played with Brees.


There are a few people out there that have been raving about him. To me, it's clear who has actually watched Brock and who just catches the game notes. If anyone watched him play, and I mean a full game or even a couple games, they'd clearly be singing his praises if they know anything about football.

so I don't take a lot of the media serious, they don't watch all the games and def not the 49ers since they're a west coast team.

Based on the comments and slights I think a lot don't even watch him play much. Because if you have you would see it like you said. I agree.

You live in a fantasy world LOL

If we're down by 4 I don't think Kyle is going to draw up 5 x 50 yarders.

Give me this version of Purdy blowing out teams with only 20 pass attempts. These 30 and 40 pass attempts by the likes of Stafford is actually concerning because it means his team is desperate. This is modern football and rarely do you see guys with that much pass attempts. It usually means they are losing.

We can argue Purdy doesn't put his team in that position. We're not a desperate team.

I see that recognizing sarcasm isn't your strong suit.

Who is that meathead on Twitter that keeps track of Brock's "almost could have been bad plays?" What will he say this week?


Probably that he could have completed that pass to McCaffrey lmao. Or that the first deep ball wasn't perfect. But I mean ffs the guy had a 97.2 QBR. Anyone trashing him after a near perfect performance like that loses their football card.

Did you see what the PFF guys said about him? The week 4 review for the game the little bald guy was trying to say that Purdy was trying to split the safeties with the deep pass to BA and that it was fortunate that he was do bad off target on that pass or else it would've been picked off. It seems pretty obvious that he was leading Aiyuk away from the safeties and almost overthrew Brandon.

He is playing great but no one is perfect. He mad a bad throw and it worked out. Great for the 49ers.

It was not a bad throw. It led Aiyuk away from the double coverage to where only he could get it.

He threw it "flat" to the side away from coverage. A less-experienced QB would have thrown it up the field and hoped BA would have won a contested catch. I'll take the first option every time.

From a national POV, Purdy is criminally underrated. Sure, I can see that he's not a top 5 QB, but trying to put him in the same pile as Jimmy, Wilson, Carr, Tannehill, and Geno is a joke.

He's already top 5. IMO he's right behind Mahomes, Allen, Hurts, and Herbert, and if he keeps playing like this he'll climb even higher.

I feel like people are really sleeping on what they're witnessing. This kid looks special. It's the exact same feeling that I had watching Steve Young. He makes the right decisions 9/10 and his ball placement is elite. Now you throw in his ability to extend plays with his legs and he's clearly already ahead of many of the league's young QBs. Who the hell is trading Purdy for Lawrence or Burrows? Would you dare take that gamble of trading away the next Tom Brady for someone with a bigger arm?

Lynch/Shanahan.

They are in talks of trading BP for Cousins
Done deal

Y'all are pretty ridiculous. It's more of the same garbage that I unfortunately spent too much time discussing when Brady was younger and everyone thought he was just a passenger. What Purdy is doing isn't normal. All the numbers say this isn't normal. Yet you guys will trade him for a guy with higher draft pedigree? Explain this take please. I'm watching a kid with a perfect record and he's efficiently shedding everyone he faces, but Trevor Lawrence is better? Both Lawrence and Burrow have great weapons too, so no excuses about our stacked playmakers. If Purdy got to throw the ball 40+ a game, his numbers would dwarf those two.

I'm seriously sitting here wondering when the entire fan base will finally jump on the ELITE bandwagon?

Took a look at every Purdy dropback on a special, record setting day.

The college backgrounds of the two were very different.

Give your sarcasm meter a good shake. I think it may be stuck.

Yep, for those who didn't get to experience those days, if they are young whippersnappers, lol..this is what watching Steve Young was like. I was just thinking this yesterday, it's the exact feeling I had in the 90s. That excitement and feel good, fuzzy all over vibes haha. Not sure how to describe it haha just damn exciting lol. The football buzz, haven't felt that in a long time & almost forgot what it was like! This is Steve Young buzz feels! This is good times indeed lol.

For us even older guys, this kinda feels like watching Montana starting to look legit. Young never made me feel that way until the year they actually won the superbowl.

I agree with everything said about Kap. It's why I wasn't a fan of his for long at all when he joined the NFL. It all went to his head..I really was excited about Kap, being from my home town and all..kind of a big deal. Well respected at UNR. Solid player. Exciting. But man, he seemed to change quickly when he got to the big time.. (no, not talking about his political or social movements..before that time). It was like ok Charlie, I guess you are the s**t now...total ego and showboating s**t..all about attention. It's ok to have moxie but the attention seeking seemed more important than the game. I was not impressed. I owned a Kap jersey for honestly...about 2, 3 months or so? To be totally honest..I didn't even want it and gave it away. Harsh maybe, but I could tell from the beginning this guy was just..idk..not the real deal. But anyway enough of that..lol

I wouldn't trade Purdy for anyone in the NFL. He's playing the best qb so far this year of anyone in my opinion. He's only going to continue to get better as a qb as he gets more experienced.
You guys do know sarcasm can't be detected through text right?

This was already mentioned in message boards and reddit back in 2008.

Try not to be sarcastic on a message board because it will be on record of you being an idiot.
