We're the only team that's ever had injuries. Poor us.

What does that have to do with my reply to the infomeme you posted about preseason expectations? If the injuries and underperformance were calculated into expectations, they would not be favorites.

The team needs to keep Brock Purdy. He'll get a deal in line with ones like Love got with the usual bump that comes with annual QB deal inflation.

Jordan Love had a great year after being a 1st round pick. That got him his extension.

Brock's situation is exactly the opposite. Why we keep bringing up 1st rd. picks like Lawrence and Love that maybe had tapped some of their potential for a year?

Why not more examples of 6th-7th rd. picks and the large extensions they got after coming off of a subpar year?

This would sure give much better context.

Find one who posted numbers like Brock posted in the reg season and postseason and you would have a good comp.

We need examples of past situations. What option(s) does he have aside from settling for a few million less per year?

If he's "not",...then he's going to ball out of his mind these next couple of games or take the best offer that comes.

We are committed to Brock. We're just not $60M per season committed right now, nor do we have to be.

Thrown away so many drafts and picks on players like Trey Lance that we have no depth

Nah. Just excuse-making.

Pretty rich coming from a Trey fan. You made a lot of excuses for that boy, including the weather lol. Picking him is part of the reason we are so screwed right now

Definitely agree it was a large waste of valuable assets, but I think you can also use this type of decision making to question a decision to extend Brock this coming offseason.

Makes more sense to me to question the people making the decisions than it is to question the judgement of fans who supported them.

They suck at drafting, but they have a pretty good track record of knowing quickly when they messed up once they have a guy in the building(Joe Williams, Pettis, Sermon, Trey, Latu, etc)

This isn't Jimmy G where you make a decision after 5 games and then he immediately ghosts everybody. I trust them in this situation. They've spent 3 years with him

Definitely agree they have shown the ability to quickly correct. That's why when they inevitably sign Brock this offseason it will hopefully be with outs that allow them to correct as painlessly as possible should it become necessary.

There will be a way out of the contract if he doesn't perform, no doubt about it

A way out? Like the $60M+ dead cap hit in 2026 for Love. You can't give out huge contracts without losing somewhere to get out of them .
As far as building an elite team around Purdy, the FO hit on only 9 of 25 picks in rounds 1-3. My confidence isn't too high on them in the draft.

The most frustrating thing Brock has done this year is prove the naysayers right. They all said he would crumble to mid without a top supporting cast, and unfortunately they've been right. I hate it, but I can't dispute it.

All quarterbacks have guys drop balls or have plays called back on penalty. Unfortunately he hasn't overcome that this year. He hasn't been clutch, and to make matters worse -- and the most disturbing thing for me personally -- is that a lot of Brock's awful plays had nothing to do with the guys around him, rather just indefensible mental mistakes.

He's still super young, and I won't give up all hope, but it's hard not to have lost a lot of faith. The positive is his escape ability is amazing at times, he can create something out of nothing. Now if he can just pair that with more consistently good decisions, he'll be great going forward.

A nice honest post, need more of these in here at times.
Also some of us 'naysayers' don't hate Purdy, as many assume in their posts. We just want a little more proof going forward that he is worth $60M

I'm not sure about that. I can see from his own play that he has somewhat regressed.....but lets face it....this season was completely torpedoed starting at training camp (Pearsall getting shot/BA & TW holdouts/insurmountable injuries/etc.) I've said for months that this is a lost season and really little can be judged from it.

The so-called naysayers were the guys who always thought BP was a product of the talent/system, so they get to shout from the tallest pulpits at this time. I think he's long term, but in order to be long term, SF must revamp that O-line - starting at C/G.
