Two touchdown lead will do that...

Shanahan and these Niners weapons are the real deal. People are going wild for Brock Purdue but it ain't him.

Yeah. He's not the next Tom Brady.

Bingo.

Purdy is an awesome story but I don't think it lasts. 

It's lasted so far. I think he'll make it to the NFC Championship. The kid is making the reads, he isn't scared and he not only can move, but he knows when and how to move either in or out of the pocket. He also knows when to  bail out of a play, that's wise beyond his experience.

Not saying he doesn't have great weapons and protection around him and a defense that helps immensely, but we've all seen guys who had all that and couldn't do much with it.

I completely agree that the team around Purdy is ridiculous and Shanahan is an offensive genius (I mean he got Matt fuging Ryan to the SB and an MVP...). That being said, Purdy has been incredible too, considering the circumstances (3rd string 7th round rookie). I honestly think he's been playing better in Shanahan's system so far than Jimmy G ever did even in their SB run. I know, that's not saying much since Jimmy G has been overrated when Shanny deserves the credit, but if he keeps playing like this they have a better chance to win it all than they have had before under Shanahan in my opinion. The worry for them though is teams having more film on him and he'll struggle against the elite defenses he'll see later in the playoffs.

      Joint Practice - Jets

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.

      You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
