Correct

Harbaugh is #1 in hilarious sideline moments though.

Brock needs to get the following to achieve three skill players wkth 1k receiving over the next three games:

- Kittle 135 receiving yards
- Deebo 213 receiving yards

would be an amazing accomplishment

it sucks, because Debo missed a few games so he would already be there, and Kittle was gimpy his first game or two

By far, lol.

Number 1 in my 'have a beer with' coach power ranking.

Buddy of mine calls him 'heart attack harbaugh' for a reason.

He's not wrong.

Usually see a player have a break out year, Purdy has steadily gotten better each game. He's starting to make those crazy accurate timed those that a saw every now and then now a couple times a game.

Didn't get to see the rise of Montana but I imagine it felt somthing like this

It wasn't this good so fast, Joe didnt have as many studs to throw to though. This is surreal.

Even when you have perfect coverage on your guy Brock Purdy kills you with the back shoulder throw… where only his guy can make a play on it

This throw was Drew Brees-esque pic.twitter.com/eVon6m7Gjs

I just realized he threw this from the far hash. Holy s**t. Brock Purdy amazed you every week with his throws. This is the space he dropped to Deebo

Are we really even surprised anymore when he makes these kind of throws?

I did not realize Tomsula is the COY in Europe he's undefeated
he might make a good selection lol

Beyond being surprised when any QB has that level of precision? No. Either he's on one of the longest running luck streaks ever, or he's really good.

Mine probably is the teeth clenching spit flying capture from opening day @ Green Bay in '12. Simple yet elegant. Pure intensity.

Heh....that's a good one...

I kinda like the one where he flips I believe his play sheet in disgust.....I can't even remember the game but I laughed a good one.

Basically you want BPA with your high end draft picks, and you can get the QB mid to late rounds. Build the team up around the QB. Then you are locked into a team controlled QB deal. We have a window for the ages here.

Odd how there are only 5-6 top QB elites at any one time, with something like 1600 colleges and teams (of different divisions) and only 5-6 QB elites come out of all that. Well, here's a thot…maybe there are a lot more of them, maybe even dozens of them who come out of college only to be ruined by the majority of NFL HCs (and or therir OCs or QB coaches) . Like clockwork, every season we have 6,7 or 8 NFL HCs fail and get replaced. Some , like Staley, go after just a season or two.

My contention is there are a whole lot more potentially Elite type qBs (like a Brock if you want an example) who end up going to a crappy HC and the QBs get ruined. There are more than i could count. How many QBs do you know who got ruined by their NFL HC? Obviously it is hard sometimes to tell if it was the Qb or the coach. Lots, or tons of current HCs came to crappy teams with little or no experience of properly coaching a Qb to greatness. Brock got super lucky falling into the coaching of Kyle…it was a match made in heaven. But what if he had gone to Chargers, Titans….just go down the list…and the question remains, how many really stud QB elites have been ruined by their HCs? A lot.

Then there are guys like Brock's HC in High school and at Iowa state who saw greatness and knew how to coach it. In the pros, that is just a hard situation to find. Was Zack Wilson really that good in college or was his NFL coaching that bad? Who knows? Russ Wilson was Superman at SEA but couldn't find his own azz with either hand under his coach at DEN.

Probably there is some of both, but thru the yrs i have seen perpetual losers follow losers (most likely from a dodo owner who wants to run his team and has no idea about how to hire a great HC and GM.) Most likely of the 1600 some qBs graduating from college there are many who had'/have the talent and it wasn't discovered. There may not have been 800 nor even 20 who were elite, but there surely were more than 4-5 of them. So that leaves the HCs and we have seen many who lasted a yr, maybe two…or 3, and in failing themselves they destroyed a potentially elite QB.

Becoming a great or elite QB requires a) the inherent talent of the qB , his determination, smarts, athleticism and b) a great HC who knows how to coach up an elite college Qb. Without both factors present …we end up with only 5 , maybe 6 elites a yr, and that includes a Mahomes , Lamar , who are on the list yr after yr. So the # of elite Qbs we bring into the NFL is lower yet…only 1 or 2. This yr the 2nd pick in the draft was either better than the 1st QB picked or the 2nd pick Qb obviously had a great HC/OC/QB coach and the first pick in the draft didn't.

Thank God we got Kyle…and it took him awhile to hit on the right QB, but it also took luck at @ pick #262.

I like how the title is keeping people on their feet.

Good post, if you look at Carolina, that's kind of the anti 49ers. They didn't build anything up, they sold a lot for pick 1, selected the QB and said ok, you bail this entire thing out. Yeah, good luck with that.. Other positions are more able to win, and easier to project, like an elite rusher dominating the guy across from him, a elite lineman, etc. Look at Goff, they built up both the OL and DL, now suddenly Goff is pretty darn good. So I would take great players at non QB positions, and build the team up, then make the job easier for the QB. We may be providing the new blueprint.
