QB Brock Purdy Thread

To me, the biggest factor for the 49ers was the inability to block Kenny Clark (320 pounds) and TJ Slaton (330 pounds). They owned the middle of the LOS and consistently muddied the front of the pocket.

Last night I rewatched the game, (Without the adrenalin surge, it was quite pleasant. ) Purdy missed on four throws where he had a clean pocket. A couple of those appeared to be the result of a wet ball. On five other throws, I noted specifically, that one or the other of those GB monsters had a hand in Purdy's face and forced him to throw it around their hands or off his back foot. Brendel and Burford (when he was in) could not control the middle of the LOS. Notably, on the final drive, Feliciano was at RG and Purdy was able to play the way we are used to seeing him play.

In the second half of your comment, GB did well because their lines played very well.

I think our entire team plays worse in the rain, not just Brock. Rain is a great equalizer. We are a better team than the packers but jt made us more even cause of the weather. Our defense was slipping, which is really the only way they scored. Our O line was getting abused (besides trent). Brock was slippin. I just hate the rain and it made us worse, which helped even the playing field between us and the pack.

you'll see it this week. We will be shakin and moving again. Dominating on offense.

I have been around football now for 44 years, as a player, and currently as a coach/scout/recruiter. I have never seen this level of unfair, insanely biased criticism of a player in my life. I mean, every daytime sports show - First Take, Undisputed, Fist Take, Colin, NFL Live, Speak, ALL OF THEM - are holding Brock to a standard that's painfully obvious they are struggling to maintain consistency when critiquing other QB's.

For a while I thought that this unfair criticism would even out, especially once he got a comeback win with missing talent around him. Quite the contrary, the criticism has gotten worse. Now I'm thoroughly convinced that not even a SB win quiet these people. Watching these sports shows I really feel that that GB win really pissed some people off, that they really wanted him to loose. Every time the 9ers win they strain their comprehension to explain how Brock wasn't the reason for win. In the GB game, it was CLEAR that Brock was the reason why we won. But listening to the national sports media trip over themselves praise Jordan Love you'd think GB won the game. Not one roasted Jordan Love for throwing 2 INT's. Not one mentioned that Brock had much better stats than Love. Can you imagine the excoriation of Brock had he thrown 2 INT's, one that lost them the game? Whole segments would have been on that alone. The talking points would write themselves.

It's clear to me that the sports media will not let Brock live down "Mr. Irrelevant". They just can't get past it no matter how many games he wins. I think the mental thinking goes something like this: "Mr. Irrelevant don't deserve to win, much less win the SB, especially over more established QG's. He's Mr. Irrelevant for a reason. It's not fare for him to be in this position when other, more deserving QB's have been in the league longer and drafted much higher with far more talent that we'd prefer to have this spot."

I just wish they be man enough and come out and say what they REALLY feel about Brock and stop presenting the world with these floating goalposts no other QB is expected hit.

Well said sir.

what da haters gonna say then?

I predicted 276 and 4 scores. 400 yds would be a bit alarming. Would imply we are chucking all day and in some sort of insane shootout or trailing. I could be thinking too much about gameflow

I'd be curious in a stat like team record when QB goes for 400.

They did? I thought for the most part Brock had time to throw the ball…the weather was clearly an issue more for Brock than Love.

if anything I think Colton was the guy that gave up some pressure on plays that could have been explosives

The narrative won't shift if Brock wins the SB. They already have set up that argument. Brock has Tony Stark and the Averangers.

I hope pat shows up up to the NFCC with a Purdy jersey on and gets our locker room amped up.

Go back and watch. He has time to get the throw off but the hands up in front of him are altering his release point. Shanahan even mentioned that in his presser

Love the we should have won stuff (I mean we say it too 😝 ).

End of the day the only TDs they got were from a massively underthrown PI, which lead to our guy slipping on the grass for the open TD…..and them getting a 70 yard kick return, fumbling and getting lucky that it bounced right back in their chest.

There was multiple no-holding calls. One on RayRay, one on Kittle, and like always a couple on Bosa. Don't get me started on the flop with Trent 😂
