Here’s a game for ya. Brock Purdy vs Skylar Thompson in 2021. Breece Hall had almost 200 yards rushing.

Not that it is going to happen but this COULD be a Superbowl matchup since both until end of day are still in playoffs.

Purdy good story imo. San Fran is a stacked team with great coaching, no wonder all 3 (completely different) QBs flourished in the system.

 

Give the kid some credit. He has not folded to the pressure of a super bowl run, less than a year after being the last pick in the draft. He may not be elite, maybe ever, but he's playing well now and deserves the kind words he gets from the talking heads.

 

And he's in the NFC. So no direct conflict. Weird person to hate right now. But people hate Josh too, so........

 

 

Kurt Warner was an UDFA who got some experience playing fast in arena ball.

Ryan Leaf was a 1st round can't miss pick.

Draft pick (or does not necessarily equal talent or ability to be able to adapt to NFL.

I don’t even think it will be an open competition. Unless he completely falls apart next week, I think Purdy goes into camp as the solid starter.

 

I could see this being the case.

 

But as a principle if a starter loses his job because of injury, you should give him a chance to earn the job back imo.

 

But you may be right.

Purdy is the player that has the perfect offensive structure allowing him to succeed. He’s got an innovative play caller that  has been successful with other QBs. His O-line and skill players are arguably the best in the NFL. Have you noticed that he sits back there and crossers are running wide open and they have the speed to create big chunk plays from 15 yard underneath throws. Deebo, McCaffrey, Ayuk, Kittle and that O-line along with Shannahan make Purdy a mobile ,weak arm QB who throws behind most receivers, someone who can win a SB. A great defense doesn’t hurt either.

[D. L. Hot-Flamethrower]

Real or fool's gold? Much too early to tell!

 

He's seeing alot of wide open looks now and has great playmakers. One has to wonder if the glass slipper comes off  in a place like Philly at the wrong time. We shall see.

He looks good to me.

 

He gets rushed, he escapes.

 

There was a throw in the first quarter to Aiyuk over a linebacker that hit him in stride.

 

Nervous backups can’t complete passes, they checkdown, they throw interception, hold the ball and take sacks. 
 

Purdy just makes plays and is more mobile. They’re better with him than Jimmy G.

💯

I watch just about every niner game and the kid has what it takes to lead an nfl team.  He played a ton of snaps in college.  His college experience + shanahans offense = just enough.  He won’t wow you with arm strength or mobility but he has just enough of both to beat you either way. He understands where to go with the ball and isn’t scared by defenders in his face. He’s pretty calm, cool and collected.  He won’t win many game, if any, on his own.  He’s the anti Josh Allen, but he’s a nice system qb that isn’t afraid to throw the big pass.  

If I’m lynch, I’d see what I can get for Lance before he spends another year on the sideline NOT playing football. In the last 3 seasons (2020 ncaa, 21/22 nfl) the kid has gone: 71-152 946 yards 7 TDs 4 Ints.  He never really learned how to play QB in college and probably won’t get the chance in SF either.  His career as an NFL starting QB could be over already.

Dude is 7-0, how much more *****in' real do you want?  It's hilarious how many keep predicting that this kid will melt down any minute.  He's the goods.

I’d like to see a full season but what he’s done is pretty impressive. However, to your point, if Purdy stepped in and did this for the Bills pre JA, Bills fans would be naming schools after this guy 😂

People are just pissed that the 49ers threw a dart blindfolded and hit a bullseye. We had to wait 20 years, trade up and then develop our QB.

Which "starter"?  Jimmy G won't be around next year.  Lance is another backup QB (lasted 2 games).

Give him another 70 starts and he WILL BE EXPOSED!!

 

He looked a lot better than Herbert.  That guy hits more helmets than receivers.  He must have gotten high at halftime.  What a dud.  

[CEN-CAL17]

Purdy seems to have a lot of potential.

 

But based on what I saw last night, Seattle made it very easy for him. Purdy was throwing to wide open receivers all night. Not to mention his weapons are some of the best playmakers in the league.

 

Also, Seattle is terrible, probably the worst playoff team this year. They lost to Atlanta, Nee Orleans, Vegas and Carolina. Lost 3 of last 5 games!

 

Last nights… oh look at Purdy should fall on deaf ears!!!  9ers still potentially have to go through Minnesota and Philadelphia. Both we be much better tests. 

[Mark92]

Purdy is obviously a decent QB.  His supporting cast is crazy talented though.  We will see what happens in the coming weeks. It reminds me a little of Tom Brady.  He's being asked to be a game manager.  Hell, Trent Dilfer win a Super Bowl.

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. 

With the talent around him on O they stand a great shot of not only making the SB but winning it.

Talent and Shanny. He seems to be able to elevate every QB he works with. I think Purdy’s future is as a solid backup in SF, but that’s his ceiling. Still, he could Nick Foles the 9ers to a SB this year.

He's real and he's spectacular!  

 

He's a good fit in Shanhan's offense and that's all that really matters.  

[Brand J]

People always feel threatened and want to discredit whenever a potentially good QB comes out of the blue. Hats off to Purdy, I have zero ill will towards a 3rd stringer getting his shot and making the absolute most of it. It’s the American dream.

He's another great example of how poorly NFL teams scout, and why I have said for the last 20 years that any team without a QB (Like the Bills back then) should be getting a new one every frigging year (or more!) until they find one.  Just take one from somewhere.

 

Maybe he'll turn out to be Brock Purdy.

 

Or Tom Brady.

 

or Josh Allen.

LOL; folks at this forum are threatened and for some reason feel a need to attack ANY and ALL QBs around the league not named Josh Allen.  It's some sort of odd, primitive, defense mechanism.  Kind of a mother hen thing I think.

I watched a fair bit of 3 games with Purdy and was pleasantly surprised too see him have very good poise, making quick decisions and being largely accurate. I don't see why several here are disliking him. He has done very well this season and has the best results of any rookie QB this season. We should be happy to see a good talent enter the league. 

Except against the Bills. If he were to beat the Bills in the Superbowl, I will change my opinion of that little sh** in a hurry. 😁
