I haven’t followed super closely but didn’t he have a concussion recently that conveniently aligns with when he started playing worse? Feels like the bye week should get him healthy and back to playing well?
It aligned closer to Trent being injured and the OL folding like wet toilet paper (Deebo being out also doesn’t help).
The concussion was in the second game of the three game skid, though he’s generally played decent over that time period, with just some inopportune mistakes at bad times
Good players don’t make excuses. Yes, I believe he was concussed vs the Vikings but he was healthy vs Cincinatti and still had 2 picks…if I am gonna praise him for great plays…gotta keep that energy for the bad
Brock Purdy really saved the 49ers
Literally. I know there’s naysayers on the Niners. But at least the Trey Lance trade is forgotten about right lol
The 49ers are really an interesting experiment right now. Usually teams that give up so much to trade up and draft a QB don’t pan out so well, panthers and redskins come to mind. So Brock did save them from falling into the abyss like them, yes. I would argue, and yeah it hasn’t been proven yet so it’s just my take, that he really is just gonna keep them where they were before the whole lance saga. A contender who definitely could win it all given the right circumstances, but their window definitely has an end in sight. Once his rookie deal is up, I don’t know how they could keep such a roster together the way it is now, with the mix of aging stars. I’ll be interested to see what they do going forward to revamp the team, but I feel like the window is the next 2 years to get number 6
I really do love Purdy for it too
I was having a great game… until Jesus made me throw a pick
He’s gotta be smarter like jimmy g, who stepped out of the back of the endzone knowing it would negate the pick 6 he was about to throw
If we ended up losing that game because of the 2 points instead of 7, it would’ve been the biggest 5D chess move ever
Or the time Kittle fumbled in the playoff game against us and it got returned for a TD. Yet it got wiped away cause Jimmy G throw a pass to the flat directly into the dirt. Just smart Thinkin by him
Just once I want to hear “Honestly I blame everyone else. All my coaches, my o-line, the wide receivers… even the opposing defense. Fucking bullshit.”
Yeah there seems to be an unwritten rule that QBs always lead by taking the hit for performance and sometimes it IS them. But when the offense has a team up by something like 34-17 late in the 3rd and the D collapses, that’s not on the QB. But there’s no single player on D that has to stand up there and say “yeah, we sucked”
Mr Blame Coaches
There are some guys who could legit say this and not even be wrong.
I would like to apologize, to ABSOLUTELY NOBODY.
In public you’d have to look to Jeff George but the best quotes are probably lost to time.
In private I’d say Ryan Leaf said that exact thing in the qb room at least once.
“Y’all are so trash I’m gonna say your name before I call you trash so you know I’m talking to you.”
“If I see your name on a top 10 list, imma kill somebody”
Fields blamed coaching recently
Justin Fields came close earlier this year
“Fucking input lag”
Didn’t Jerry Jeudy kind of do this lol
I think he’s smart QB and plays quite well in the given system. Mistake or turnover can happen even with elite QBs.
Everything you said and it’s only his second season. He’s a solid qb who still makes rookie mistake. His decision making is still better than most starting qbs despite the picks.
Not unless it’s Dak apparently lol
Actually it’s the other team that takes ownership of your turnovers
Even if it isn’t your fault, as the QB you take accountability for it. Passer rating includes INTs for a reason. Even if they aren’t the QB’s fault completely, it doesn’t really matter, because accountability is required for success at any level, and when you look at film you’ll discover all of the individual breakdowns that lead to a play failing. But when it comes to handling the criticism, this is what leaders do.
this is a good clarification i thought brock purdy had intentions to be very dumb with the ball
Cock Sturdy’s play has been pretty limp the past few weeks.
I have a feeling he’ll go pretty hard again soon
He has some “what in the Carson Wentz” type plays lol, this is a good response though.
He consistently says the right things, and more often than not does the right things. He just needs to clean it up the rest of the time
I thought he was going to take ownership of the 49ers.
Caleb Williams was about to be in shambles.
All coming together for Kirk
I don’t know if Kirk would stay healthy in SF given our QB curse under Shanny and him coming off an ACL at 36…
It doesn’t make sense
All that to get whooped by jags 🤔
He will commit two more Sunday
