You gonna still love Purdy when he starts dating Cardi B?

I’ll have to Google Cardi B. Not 100% who she is.

He will get paid - I agree. But he is no upgrade over Alex Smith and they dumped him to the curb (as did KC). He will be Super Bowl MVP after he gets paid - I don’t buy it.

Mahomes gave credit to Alex smith in an interview saying the culture that him and Andy Reid built before he arrived deserves credit for the win. They texted back and forth after the win.

Patrick Mahomes credits Alex Smith after Chiefs’ Super Bowl win: ‘He built the culture that I came into’

The current Chiefs quarterback gave a shoutout to his mentor and former teammate for his help in building Kansas City into a Super Bowl winner.

Sports talk guys this morning saying it felt like in the 2nd half, Shanahan went away from CMC to have Purdy throw for the win. Plus SF's decision to receive the ball first in OT also wasn't the best decision.

Good thing we have Sports talk guys Sherlock and Clouseau on the job.

There is so very very much humor in this. . . .

Don't!!!

blue collar QB about 180 degrees from Taylors boyfriend and cry baby, it's always about me, Mahomes.

Definitely agree here- he is an easy guy to like with a super cool story. Wouldn’t bother me at all to see him turn into a stud, I just don’t see it yet.

Who knows. Their window is still open, although I do wonder how long CMC can last running like he does- that guy is an animal.

Better than RFJ Jr ads I have to believe

It might be "whores" instead of "hoes" I can't quite make it out.

At least he acknowledge he miss 2 open TD passes and did exactly what the scouts said he does against secondary pressure and did not sufficiently adapt.

Exactly he does the right thing takes the blame regardless of whose at fault. You don't know who was fault it was anymore than I do.

And those 2 with franchise records surpassed have rings - which he doesn’t.

They also had some absolutely amazing weapons.And lots of seasons under their belt.
Game managers before it was cool.
You are arguing an opinion as fact.

Listening to these guys talk football is like hearing Joe Rogan talk about public land hunting...

Okay, my 2 cents...the read was there. Pressure coming in from the right means you have a hot read and throw to the pressure. MOST experienced QB's make that throw. I like Purdy and his humble roots/underdog story as much as the next guy. Doesn't mean I can't armchair quarterback...Why the hell else do I watch the games.

I knew that last night's game was going to sting 49's fans really hard, so some of the testiness, I'll let it slide.

The first half the 49's were clearly taking it to the Chiefs. Yet, they did not get much to show for it. Some measure of that HAS to fall on the offense. Let's name their key skill players...Samual, Kittle, McCaffrey and Purdy. Does KC have a receiver as good as Samual? Does KC have a back as good as McCaffrey? Just to be kind, I give Kelce the edge over Kittle, they are both very good. So, why do they not have a larger lead, when their defense was giving the Chiefs fits. Some of that has to be laid at the feet of the qb.

When I watch Purdy, here is what I see. I see a poised player who is talent limited. He was not Mr. Irrelevant for no reason. The reason is he cannot make all of the throws an elite qb has to make. He can't throw a deep out. He more or less makes his living with shorter throws over the middle. He is accurate with those throws. He had an open receiver deep for TD's twice and missed both of them.

I fully expect that teams will adjust to him. Since he can't throw deep outs or really any deep ball, teams are going to concede that portion of the field to him and take away the short middle throws, as best they can.

It won't bother me if he gets paid. Hell, Carson Wentz got paid. If they do pay him, it will put them further away from a title rather than closer. If he wins a title, it will happen in the nest year or two, while still on his rookie contract.

Other peoples' viewpoints aren't always bad. Free your mind.

I totally agree with them, it was only obvious to anyone that wasn't reading a book, making dinner, or sleeping through the game. WOW!

I hope the sports talk guys you referenced don't get paid much.

Ok guys so

Purdy has also completed 27-of-41 passes that traveled at least 20 yards this season, good for a completion rate of 65.9 percent. That is, by far, the highest number Pro Football Focus has ever recorded among qualifying quarterbacks
He led the league in deep pass completion%, deep pass air yards per attempt and accuracy.

Brock Purdy's NFL-leading accuracy on deep passes a 49ers key vs. Cardinals

The 49ers are connecting on explosive pass plays at a rate exceeding the "Greatest Show on Turf" St. Louis Rams.

If you only watched a few games I can see how you would get that opinion. But he happened to lead the league in completion percentage against pressure.
Again he didn't play his best against a great defense and the cheifs got to him at the right time. Both of us can be correct.
If you think kirk cousins makes those throws"all day" in his second year in the Superbowl against this defense. I'd like to see the tape. It's all situational

At $1MM he is the best value at qb, no doubt . On a non-price assessment of the young-ish qbs, I would take Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, Stroud and Herbert over Purdy in a heartbeat. Picking between Purdy, Lamar and Hurts would be a toss up. If you include all QBs Purdy is comfortably in the 8-14 range.

For the Purdy lovers, would you take any other QB even up? Or do really think he is #1 and just let down by a muffed punt?
