Didn't really love that.
Plenty of cheap QBs out there we could lose 10 games with. If he regresses further or plays like he did this year we will lose plenty of games next year and the year after and the year after since we would have no way to move on from him.
With his average to mediocre play this year, the best case Brock has is that there really are no good options for us this offseason to upgrade the position and that he had a good first couple years so we must and are forced to HOPE he can recapture that level of performance. Meaning we have to pay him HUGE $ for very few elite tangible traits and hope he can process his way back to better performances from his first two seasons and not look like a better Jimmy version 2.0 with ill-timed INTs when the game is in the balance. Since we are prob stuck with him I have not choice but to HOPE this year was an aberration. Wish we could just let him play out his contract and see what he does next season before paying him big.
I don't trust him anymore. I don't want to pay him 55-60m for past performance when I am no where near convinced his future performance will resemble his first two years. And I admit recency bias is a factor.
Brock believers I get why they have no problem paying him on a long-term deal.
Still thinking Lance needs more reps? Lol
Lance needs more and more chances when he clearly sucked but yet trade Purdy after a season of an insane amount of adversity...after winning back to back NFCC and an SB run.
I do think Lance needs more reps.
Doesn't mean he will be good once he gets them but obviously a super raw player needs as many reps as possible. I cannot judge ultimate suck-ness on 4 starts in the NFL and make definitive conclusions. But it looks like he won't be the player the 49ers wanted him to be which is good since he is on Dallas now.
Trading Purdy has to do with his contract and wanting a long-term one in the 55-60m per year area. That is just a huge risk to take based on what we saw this year in his performance and injury proneness to his throwing arm. If one is going to get that kind of money he should be performing much better than he did adversity or not, and we should expect to see strong performances during adversity and elevate his teammates around him.
Just curious... were you a Jimmy fan his last couple years here and still believed in him because we made the SB with him in 2020? I have no idea.
I like Brock and maybe he can be great assuming he will perform like he did his first two years. Problem is there is now, based on his mediocre performance this year, huge RISK in extending his contract long-term at that kind of money. Go ahead give him the money but the Niners better structure some sort of out after two years where they can move off him for only a limited cap hit if he keeps regressing allowing us the flexibility to draft a QB high in the draft if we like one of them and not feel as though we can't because of all the $ committed to Brock.
