Media thinks whoever is at QB decides the Games.
That why they made everyone worried about playing Brady or Rodgers in the Playoffs without even looking how terrible the rest of the team was.
Purdy is perfect for what KS is doing here, and Hurts is perfect for what the Eagles are doing. And the QB is not doing to be the one deciding factor, just like I don't think Dak was the one deciding factor in our game, no matter how much the media is focused on just him.

The giants defense is just as mediocre as the seahawks defense. The Brock Purdy lead offense dropped a 40 burger on them in the WC round.

I would also add that Jalen Hurts is everything we were grooming Trey Lance to do this season right prior to his injury where he didn't get a chance to show anything
This is EXACTLY why Purdy needs to show he can win this game is to show that we don't need a Jalen Hurts or a Trey Lance type talent to win but that we need a Purdy

Yup it's what I'd do too just as Lynch once played and won with Warren Sapp

Imagine being the person who has to cut the checks to pay these imbeciles for this crap to air to the world lol.
It's intimately a good thing for the Niners because it's only keeping the pressure on Philly. What happens when Brock makes plays and all of the sudden Hurts makes a mistake? It's only going to create momentum towards SF.
It doesn't matter if the Niners win by 30 points, in the media's eyes, it will have nothing to do with Brock Purdy.

East coast bias is real. The eagles were the best team throughout the year, so they've been regurgitating the same talking points for the past 3 months.
Rookies have never won this game game (NFCCG or AFCCG). They're paid to say what the audience wants to hear.
The media narrative anyway of QB vs. QB is nonsense. It is QB vs. defense.
I can't believe we actually have to say this out loud.

Round 3: How the Eagles will win. (Expected) 1on1 sit down with Jalen Hurts. (50/50 Expected) How the Eagles lost.
Superbowl: How the Bengals will win. (Expected) 1on1 sit down with Joe Burrow. (50/50 Expected) How the Bengals lost.
Amirite? LOL
That would be about right.

I loved the last question the female host posed: "Who would you rather have, Brock Purdy or Jalen Hurts."
Keeping in mind that Brock Purdy hasn't lost an NFL game yet, while Hurts has lost his fair share, the first response is "HURTS."
WTF?
On the other hand, let the disrespect flow. Let it continue. It only serves as high octane fuel.

The best part of the 49ers team is the DLine, and the best part of the Eagles team is the OLine (2 probowl, 1 good, 2 avg). Plus Eagles have a mobile QB with multiple rushing TDs, MVP candidate, plus a probowl running back. The 49ers OLine (one probowl, one below avg, 1 good, 2 avg) vs the Eagles DLine (1 probowl, 1 good, 2 avg+).
These comparisons can go on and on.
So far, 49ers with a 40% chance of a win. Not sure how this number changes between now and Sunday.

Disrespect to who? The guy that's currently OPOY and MVP candidate lol. Sorry man you're not the "hungry dogs" this go around. you're not rolling out Nick Foles. If anything it's the other way around.
