Old Guy Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Man, did the Cowboys ever overpay for Lance! 49ers turned 3 - 1sts into a 4th three years later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 49ers are lucky they got Brock Purdy. He helps negate that horrible Lance trade if he pans out long term. Imagine how the 49ers could look if they kept those picks and had Lance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Purdy is going to be a one-year wonder and the 49ers roster is loaded. He's the perfect QB for Shanahan's offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 (edited) I wouldn't be so sure that Purdy is actually good . It's entirely possible that last year was a mirage and he's going to turn into a pumpkin, leaving the 49ers in the "Aggressively Mid" QB zone. Like it would not surprise me if Sam Darnold wins more games for the 49ers this year than Purdy does.

He’s definitely not a pumpkin but he’s got to prove he’s back from a pretty significant injury for a QB and handle the pressure of being the guy after they cut bait on a huge investment. I hope he cracks and that Lance turns out decent. I hate the Cowboys and the 9ers but recent history and the fact that I live out here means I hate the 9ers more than anyone outside of the division.

Purdy did have a really good run last season. Will be interesting to see now that opposing defenses have more tape and time to see what he struggles with and can get a bit more in depth with game planning. SF does have some really nice skill positions to offset the dependence on Purdy to carry the offense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 So I saw a lot of Purdy in college. My take on him is that his best trait is moxie, and his worst traits are "decision-making" and "accuracy." I figure that at some point (like the playoffs) defenses are going to figure out how to not make the reads as easy as the 49ers offense is designed to make them.

Brat&Beer Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 I have wondered if Purdy might be rather similar to Clifford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, Love has an enormous edge on Purdy when it comes to arm strength and being able to fit the ball in tight windows. Like the Cover 2 shell is coming back into style, and the way you beat it (other than running) is that you're able to hit those flat-7 throws that require timing and precision. I don't think Purdy can make those throws; I know Love can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refugee Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Watching the 9ers PS. Their kicker went out with a calf injury so they will be going for almost anything on 4th down. The local guys also said they’re pretty stacked at TE and will have to make some decisions on the 53. Too bad they’re not keeping 3 QBs but we might start fishing for cuts as soon as clock hits 0:00 tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanahan is more comfortable coaching pocket passers. My only concern with Purdy is his health. He seems to be great for that team otherwise.
