QB Brock Purdy Thread

BP faults himself rightly for pick 1 and pick 3, pick 2 was a lil bad luck, but it's risky throwing with a defender in your throw lane. Pick 4, you don't want to be contacted as the ball is coming out, that's a duck, unfortunate it went right to a defender. BAL seemingly all over our screen game, did their homework I suppose.

When we were down a couple scores I thought wow what a great opportunity for Brock to show he can come back and win. What a great opportunity for the team to prove they can win from behind and not rely on 2 TD leads.

But yet here we are again. Why can't this team and Brock take one on the chin, get up and respond? A playoff team/teams will hit us in the chin again. It will happen. I'm seriously worried we can't win from behind.

That's because we can't.

Shanahan record says we can't.

They actually have won 1 game from behind in the 4th. Packers divisional round 2021

That was game the defense won it for us. We should be able to with the weapons we have on both sides of the ball. The Eagles have been doing it all season then again everyone thinks they're trash now (like us).

Not too worried about Purdy. People just need to accept the fact that he will have some bad games. This won't be the last one. But he will also have some amazing games as well. He's still on pace to have the best season a Niner QB has had in over 2 decades and helped lead this team to a potential one seed and home field advantage.

If he's doing this in year 3-4 then it's a problem but he's on his 20th start and has had what…? 3 bad games and 15 spectacular games and 1-2 mid games..? lol.

The one concern I may have is this inability to come back. But this also seems to be a Shanahan problem as well so I'm not sure what the issue is. Just seems like when this team gets behind early they tend to just implode. That's more concerning than anything else. They're either REALLY good or REALLY bad which is strange.

Sometimes people forget that Brock is still a young buck. Our entire offense, Kyle included, was overwhelmed last night. But Purdy will learn. I'm not worried in the least bit.

Thank you for making sense.

That's not really cherry picking. What that stat means is if they trail by one TD or more they haven't been able to win. It's easy to drive down for a winning FG. We see several teams do it every week. Getting into the end zone once you reach the red zone is different. The fact that they're the only team since 2017 that hasn't done that is disturbing.

One thing we do need to consider is the Niners have been good and won a lot of games in that time. They haven't trailed very often in the 4th quarter so they haven't had as many chances as some teams.

My point is MOST HCs aren't coming back from that, people fail to post all the other HCs record in that situation which is also awful….so yes that's cherry picking or not proving all the information.

Pretty crazy to have a supposed brilliant coach who can't win when behind, as a rule

can't win from behind by design, we rank dead last in pass attempts, with an emphasis on run blocking up front, and even blocking out wide. all that flies out the window, or goes up in smoke, once we trail 2-3 scores in the second half.

part of the reason we rank last in passing attempts is because we're rarely playing from behind.

Every team becomes one dimensional when they're down multiple scores or turning the ball over at a stupid high clip.

that plays a role, but KS wants to run the ball, even out wide it's a lot of blocking, more so than route running, we have players to fit his scheme
I'm not complaining about the scheme, KS is elite, but let's see it for what it is, we ain't built to throw our way back into games

going back to the benching, can we recall a QB1 out not due to injury, when the QB1 is The Guy? reminds me of the Eagles in 94. Steve was hot on that one, wonder how BP handled it, or what that convo was like. Weird situation. Maybe it will fire up the team, like in 94

This. We can always blame so and so, but man costly TOs and a f**k ton of defensive penalties are hard to overcome

This. He's going to be so much better in year 3 after having a full year to recover from surgery.

Not that worried about Purdy. Some of those were fluky tip ups. He's been good all year and last year too. Much more worried about the terrible Shanahan play calling and our horrific offensive line.

I kinda get what you're saying…But damn near every team wants to run the ball.

Not following the run blocking vs route running thing? They're running routes when it's a passing play. BA is actually pretty elite there. Deebo is much better than folks give him, he is better vs zone though.

I was skeptical of this game because they matchup very well. Tossing all kinds of TOs was the reason for the loss. This team can throw the ball just fine, we just can keep throwing it to the other team in those situations.

I mean when the game is out of control we've seen the starter get "benched" we've seen teams do it vs SF

I see one WR who can win on routes consistently, JJ is an elite blocker, out last night, but he's our WR3. Deebo is a bit of a wildcard, but I don't think of him as getting a lot of separation. The way we use Deebo, is in the run game, or as a joker, the screen game, just manufacture ways to get the ball in his hands. He doesn't excel dropping back every play and him toasting his matchup for easy completions. Lot of teams have a slot machine, a guy who can play the slot, we don't have a slot WR rostered (as in a conventional slot WR). You kinda need that if you are gonna drop back every play, or comeback in that fashion.

The weird aspect is the game wasn't really out of control from a score perspective. We had the ball on the 2 to make it a one score game, north of the 2 min warning. I believe we had our TOs also.
