NFL NFL Discussion: Playoffs or bust

If they kneeled on the ball more they might’ve won. But shanny decided to keep airing it out when they could’ve ran out the clock. Did the same shit with Turdy against the chiefs a couple years ago. Way too much passing when force feeding cmc in the second half wins the game.

Yup. Shannahan's biggest weakness is his own ego. I hope he's learned from it. He's one of those guys that so smart at the gameplan that he just couldn't take a step back and do the smart thing. He wanted to go out there and try to show his brilliance vs just playing the basics of clock management. I hope he wins the big one to get that monkey off his back......but then again the praise he'll get and the gushing that the analysts will do over him will be crazy!

Top 5 in completed air yards per pass attempt on the season. Try again.

I feel like at this point the whole mr. irrelevant , last pick of the draft, thing should just stop being talked about. It's like every game they gotta say it. Purdy has proven himself over time and who cares now where he was drafted?
If Purdy was a #1 pick people would be saying he has potential to be the next Brees or Brady or Peyton. It's like people still can't believe it. I had my doubts but Purdy is clearly a top 10 QB in the league without question.

Bummer my Niners always have an over abundance of injuries, sheesh~~~~

With our injured players playing I do think we can hang with anyone.

No Bosa, Warner, Williams, Kiddle tonight and we just took the lead.

Purdy a lot more mobile than he gets credit for.

How cool would playing the Superbowl at home be?

Niners are the only team to use five different QB's in the biggie.

Montana, Young, Kaepernick, Jimmy G, Purdy

Ya, if they had Bosa and Warner (and assuming Trent and Jorge Kittle come back) they'd be in the mix for best SB odds for sure. They just can't seem to get any pressure rushing 4 at all! Then all the injuries in the secondary too. Is Stout hurt now too?
It's gonna be tough to score 35+ points a game, which is what they are going to have to do with a bend, don't break too many times, defense in the playoffs. That #1 seed and extra week of rest would be huge for them!

They also drafted a pass rusher 11th overall who tore his ACL week 9.

If Purdy was drafted #1 overall they'd say "Wow he has an amazing arm" or "That's why he was drafted #1 overall."

People can believe a mediocre QB with limited physical capabilities can success in a Kyle Shanahan offense. It's almost like every other mother fucker has been able to do it too.

We just pretend like Kyle Shanahan wasn't trying to get Kirk Cousins for years lmao

I remember now. I got it backwards. Lol

This is like some Abraham Lincoln/John Kennedy assassination level of coincidences here...

Love how people will quote stats until they don't like what the numbers tell them. Here's where Brock falls for the season with 8 starts heading into the final week:

Brock Purdy, Advanced QB Ratings

• #1 = EPA/Dropback (<--strongest correlation to winning of all advanced QB metrics)
• #1 = Adjusted QBERT (Nate Silver's latest all-encompassing metric that factors in interceptions that aren't the QB's fault, strength of defense, the weather, etc)
• #1 = ESPN QBR
• #2 = CPOE% (Completion Percentage Above Expectation)
• #3 = PFF QB Total Offense Grade
• #4 = QB Passer Rating
• #5 = NFLElo QB VVAS Rating

Brock Purdy, Key Non-Advanced Stats

• #1 = Win Percentage, starting QBs: 87.5% (7-1), projects to 15-2 season
• #2 = Passing TDs per Game
• #4 = ANY/A (Adjusted Net Yards per pass Attempt)
• #4 = CAY/PA (Completed Air Yards per Pass Attempt)
• #6 = Total Passing Yards per Game
• #6 = TD% - INT%
• #20 = TD/INT Ratio

All the familiar excuses begin. It's the coach, it's CMC (who is incredible, but not the only incredible offensive player in the league), it's the roster (fuck all the injuries this year), it's his protection (his line isn't Top 10 in pass or block winrate), it's the weakness of schedule, blah blah blah.

Subsequently the haters will conveniently ignore that all the QBs they worship and are leading the MVP race also show up at the top in all of these same stats: Allen, Stafford, Maye, etc.

Brock is the Rodney Dangerfield of the NFL. The man gets no respect.

Get a positive record then get back to me

I at least seen my team win a superbowl before I died, good luck with that lol.

Also fuck the Bears.

Clinging to the past because your shit tier franchise has no future. I remember when the Klan was in their prime too lmao

Admin took that can out. Deservedly so.

“Don’t ever try to out-racist Da Speeit” should in the rules section of this website.

A warning to all

I gotta be honest I'm shocked we are doing as well as we are. So I will just enjoy being shocked as long as I can.

The Bosa injury will be why we don't win it all..........again.

 

[Sir Elzio Dennick]

He had it in Tennessee and couldn't even perform a basic hand off or take a snap under center without dropping it.

So you are saying that no he should stay a backup?

You know it's funny that Brock Purdy makes people forget how retarded the 49ers were going in for Ghey Lance the literal draft Before. Talk about the Universe correcting a fuck up with sheer luck.

They would have just signed Nick Foles or something and have been fine while drafting another QB.

When we look at how many quality QB's the Niners have had since coming over from the old AAFC in the late 40's, we do have to expect a couple duds, simply how it goes.

People don't get just how good a runner Purdy is.
