I lost all respect for Simms as an analyst when he said Mac Jones would've led the 49ers to the Super Bowl as well. The guy just does not want to admit he was wrong about Mac Jones and Brock Purdy. That's the worst kind of analyst. The former player who refuses to acknowledge he was wrong and thinks that because he played the game, his opinion is somehow more valid than others.
I don't think he was as wrong as you think. Mac Jones best attribute would have been perfect for us. You guys keep looking how guys fared at their current/past places with current/past situations without taking into effect what that player would have had here. I truly believe If We had drafted Mac Jones we would have made the Superbowl in 21
He likely would've had the same opportunity Trey had. I don't think he would have been an immediate starter of JG. I do think that Mac would have had to start that Texans game like Trey and not looked back. I don't think we would have started a hurt JG in the playoffs if we had Mac. I think we beat STL and quite possibly CIN. But definitely would have be STL IMO.
Having said that, I don't want him nowhere near this team. Not because of him as a QB but because of his antics on the field. Oh and because Brock is 10x better
