BROCK PURDY: for real or fools gold ?

[Italian Bills]

Yesterday he had another great game, it seem he has been in control all the game, very accurate and more. 
 

You that know the game much more than me, what’s your take on this ? 
 

If he’s for real the 49ers can have a serious shot to the SB.

My take is every team should be drafting seasoned QBs in the 7th round no matter their lack of measurables.

[Gugny]

If Mouf is for real, the 49ers will be a tough out.

I hate when people hype up these players who have a good game or two.  So annoying 

[Simon]

The 49ers instantly became a more dangerous team the minute he stepped on the field.

He’s played very well for a 7th rd pick.  He’s a great story and discussion. 
 

I hate it when people hate things that carry no weight in their lives.  Why hate such a thing?

Cam rising is my 6-7th round backup I want 

Tough as nails, winner, intangibles …. Just not the most physically gifted

 

There’s always a fourth or fifth year senior with a great make up to be a good back up

I’m impressed.  Josh wasn’t that decisive in his first two games.  Amazing find. 

[SageAgainstTheMachine]

You always have to wait to see how the league adjusts to rookies, but the quick eye test says he's at least skilled enough to shepherd a team with a great defense to some playoff wins.

I think this guy COULD be the real deal unless he meets Matt Milono

[atlbillsfan1975]

Expecting a PFF article on how he is better than Josh any minute. 

[LeGOATski]

He's for real like Nick Mullens was for real.

 

It's all Shanahan.

[transient]

Are you suggestin San Francisco is looking to him for deliverance...

How many times have you seen this same scenario and the player flame out.  Probably 99% if the time 

[SCBills]

NFL has a tendency to figure people out, but the 49ers are an extremely QB friendly system in need of a guy who can just manage the game and make the occasional throw down the field… Purdy can do that, along with mobility at QB they didn’t have before. 

[Low Positive]

The Shanahan system makes things easy for a QB. It’s the same reason that Tua is so much better this year. They just get the ball to playmakers in space and let them do the work. In fact, the Deebo injury will be more impactful than the Garoppolo injury.

The real test is how effective are they after 6 weeks, once there's film on the new QB and opposing DC's have time to game plan. Then can they adjust their game and win again.

[FilthyBeast]

At this point 100% fools gold considering he's not even played 2 full NFL games.

 

This is the NFL and it takes a little time to get tape out on the latest flash in the pan. Credit Kyle Shanahan for being a great offensive mind and putting this kid in position to succeed around a great roster but he'll get exposed at some point especially in the playoffs, if not much sooner.

Lots of clicks guaranteed,

[Mark Vader]

Too early to give a grade of either kind after just two games.

 

Purdy had a great career at Iowa State, and was not a one year wonder.

 

He brings to the game the type of skill that is probably similar to what Garrapolo did, although potentially better.

 

The 49'ers run the ball a lot, so that helps Purdy. As of now I have not seen him make any bone headed plays that Garrapolo would make.
