49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1
- Thread starter guitarchitect7
- Start date
Possible, but my guess is Darnold ends up 2nd string. But I’m not following too closely.
The good news it looks like 1st string is Brock's to lose!
Edit: Don't know what the SAnFran/NFL rules are but it would be great if@CW could do pod, 1st year/rookie reaction, kittle relationship, rehab etc. This fan base is not use to having high profile guys in the league, nothing against our guys, but Purdy going to be a legend. (Prob already is on CF)

That's some high praise and confidence from the 49ers staff! Says a lot that they haven't even gone through camp yet to come out and say that Brock is their guy. Curious to see if Lance is as humble about it if he loses they job when he's healthy as it's easy to take the team player approach when you can't physically play. But when you are a former 1st rounder that they gave up what they did to get him and now you could be holding a clipboard for a guy that almost didn't get drafted it will be interesting if he continues to buy in or asks for a trade.
Gonna be a lot of pressure on Brock to perform but he looked awesome last year.
If anything, this is saying QBPs surgery went well.Article from ESPN interviewing Lynch about Brock

2nd best job in the NFL is backup QB good money for no pain. No shame in holding a clipboard for a few million a yr.
Speaking to NFL Network's Steve Wyche later in the day, coach Kyle Shanahan agreed with Lynch's sentiments.
"In the games he played, he played at a level that was the real deal," Shanahan said about Purdy. "If you go off that evaluation and what he did, he earned that job. He should be our starter on how he played. Because he has that film. And that was really cool to see."

Martz: Lance a ‘long ways away' from starting compared to Purdy
Mike Martz doesn’t think Trey Lance is the 49ers’ answer under center — yet.

Feels like we knew this but maybe I was just assuming that was the case?
