Ya Digg? Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Yesterday was the first time I have watched him play, and I just was not impressed. No zip on his passes, and if the guy wasn’t wide open he couldn’t complete a pass to him. He also panicked several times as he was scrambling around, giving him virtually no shot to make a play. I’m not sure if this happens every game or if he was just off, but he just seemed very meh to me. That being said, his scrambling did lead to a couple of touchdowns and he had several completions when his guys were wide open. Can he bring the team back when they are down 10+ points? To me that’s the question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew21PA Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 We will see next couple weeks here shanahan system is amazing no doubt kid may have something with him, but I think against more solid defenses he’s going to struggle in the playoffs i have them in the NFC so maybe not till they play us in Arizona Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I actually remember him at Iowa State. They were rarely on television but I remember the game and he sort of wet the bed after a ton of early broadcast hype. Then he fell off the radar. Anyone know if he was injured or did he decline? When they said he was Mr Irrelevant I thought to myself ‘oh yeah, I remember that kid’! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Hucklebuck Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 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. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was nowhere near the ball. Aiyuk was wide open. That's what CMC has done for them. At the risk of making this an Edmunds thread, that's one play after which I immediately thought Tremaine would probably be roasted by some fans here if that was him. But it was Fred Warner, who is regarded as one of the best, if not the best LB in the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has not folded to the pressure of a super bowl run, less than a year after being the last pick in the draft.

Eastport bills Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Real or fool's gold? Much too early to tell! He's seeing alot of wide open looks now and has great playmakers.

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. Edited January 15, 2023 by NewEra 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEN-CAL17 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 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 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Purdy is obviously a decent QB. His supporting cast is crazy talented though. We will see what happens in the coming weeks.

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. 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
