I recall one play where this happened (Brock checked down when there was an open deeper target) and it was because LVR ran a presnap disguise. My guess is Brock got a bit confused postsnap, and made the safe play and checked it down. I have no problem with that, on that play.

That's smart football. I love it. A lot of people miss big plays and then try to force it. I'm glad he is playing conservative when the time is right. It's all about balance
depends which play.. there were times he had plenty of time but locked on one option.. stop owing teammates and hit the open guy

Wait, now fans are OK with the conservative plays? You motherf**kers! LOL j/k

Go get 'em All. Keep 'em accountable.

It's okay to be conservative on some plays when the QB has shown he is capable of making big plays. If a QB rarely makes the big throw and shows a high frequency of resorting to the conservative play, that's a problem.

Agreed. There is a difference between a guy hitting a safe throw early in the downs versus a guy who constantly throws short of the sticks on money downs because he's worried about connecting on the deeper stuff.

Brock has shown he's not afraid of hitting plays down the field. It's about the big picture. Have to be smart with the football. We've got the guys where the short game can get the job done…as long as he doesn't get complacent and ignore the bigger options when they're open and luckily I don't think that's Brock's issue.

The biggest issue I see with fans on here, and I'm sure this isn't unique to the 49ers fan base, is that a lot of people have a black and white mentality. If the person doesn't take a risk, they're conservative. If they do risk, they're turnover prone.

it's like when I was trying to tell someone that I don't consider Lance a mobile QB at this time. Being mobile is more than the ability to rush for yards - it's all encompassing of someone's ability to move/agile/quick/avoid sacks/extend plays etc. that doesn't mean I think Lance is a statue. I just think he needs to improve in that area if he wants to be considered "mobile" like Josh Allen or Herbert etc but some folks are like "you don't know what it means!" Or "oh so he's a statue?". It's weird. It's like all or nothing with a lot of folks on here - there is much more to a player than GREAT or TERRIBLE. Lol

also, I love it when I say two players have similar TRAITS, but then some people think that means I'm comparing everything about them and their style. I said do you think Lance is as mobile as Fields, Mahommes, Allen, etc. and the answer I was given was "I am just talking to talk if I think fields is the same as Lance". Lol it's unbelievable, sad, and hilarious all at the same time.

I thought you were done talking about this? Did you watch the Seattle game yet?

Go watch the film from that game and then come back again and tell us in black or white how you think Lance isn't mobile.

It will be unbelievable, sad and hilarious at the same time to see you pretend that after seeing that game again.

Even if that's the game plan? I hope we're not back to talking about missed opportunities didn't see such and such down the field etc etc. Completely bogus slander on Jimmy and now we're doing it to Brock also? Oh my God. People talking about this stuff need to get their statistics together how many times do quarterbacks in the NFL quote Miss open players quote a game. Then let's talk about which quarterbacks are doing more or less of that. Otherwise let's move on to something else.

Media all over Young for comparing Brock to Mahomes, when all he did was comparing how cognizant and quickly they both naturally reacts to situations on the field with out hyperventilating.

I've watched every snap of his career. Lol I don't need to go watch highlights to be convinced by you. We disagree - that's fine.

Aren't you the same guy who says Brock and Trey both have too small of a sample size to make any projections about them? Yet off of one game - you're absolutely convinced he's an elite level mobile player. lol okay.

you have the lottery numbers while you're at it?

Woah there. Elite-level mobile player? Or a player with elite mobility?

Because there are players with elite mobility that never even earn practice snaps in the NFL.

So which one is it here?
Just wanna say, I really do want lotto numbers if anyone has any lol

They got on Young for saying "The Force" too. Apparently, Young can't say anything right lol.

Are you ok? You claim to have watched the Seattle game(I didn't say highlights, there weren't many in that game) and think that game doesn't show Lance to be mobile.

Then you read my post and see me claim "he's an elite level mobile player"

Care to highlight where I said he's an elite level mobile player?

Your whole discussion here has been he's not mobile period.

I have no problem with Brock missing some chances because he's shown he can hit them at times. Oh yeah, he's also playing in his rookie season.

Agree.Almost every pass play in the nfl you can find a receiver who's "open" that the qb "missed". Yawn. Unless the analysis gets more sophisticated, we can't keep pointing at that like it's meaningful. Everyone loves Brock because he hits downfield chances, unlocking touchdowns from shanny's field goal cupboard. To me, it's likely that Purdy "missing" shots is due the coaching staff (i.e. shanny) preaching safety. He's got 4 picks in 5 games. Jimmy had 4 picks in 9 games. AFAIAC, that's fine. if he throws 1 pick every 5 quarters, we are strolling to the promised land.
Lawrence ain't ice in the vein calm as Brock . A little pressure and he missed an open guy that's 10yards open by 15

The field goal cupboard was stocked by a guy with zero confidence in his own arm not being able to attack downfield with success mixed with an inability to consistently read defenses properly.

Luckily that has now changed.

Having CMac as your outlet, Trent Williams as your tackle, and Shanahan as your playcaller probably helps. #JustSayin

He's literally told me that he thinks that Lance is on the level of Allen and Herbert.

I hate this convo cause it makes me sound like I'm just bashing Trey. I just want to see him earn it. Prove himself.

i think Trey has elite level traits. I don't think he's tapped into them. I also think that just because you have something , doesn't mean it'll ever come to fruition.
