I can't believe people actually keep stats for practices. You can't hit the QB in practice.

Normally I wouldn't care, but coming off "major" arm surgery, It's worth noting that he's progressed back to pre injury form and is accurate.
Why so interested in this thread, Eagles fan? Nervous much? Lol

I'm personally interested as I collect cards and have a big stack of Trey Lance rookie cards (that I am almost close to setting on fire, jk)
But I will say, "stats matter" to the degree that if your QB is bad, its not a good sign. Like the stats I'm seeing for Danny Dimes in joint practices vs the Lions, not great (which makes me smile b/c they are obviously a rival of the Birds).
I am just genuinely naturally curious to see how this all plays out as well/how high Purdy's ceiling truly is.

Consensus of 6 sources. In bigger leagues, a decent backup QB is valuable.

"I feel almost back to normal": Brock Purdy provides recovery update after 49ers-Raiders practice
After Thursday's joint practice between the San Francisco 49ers and Las Vegas Raiders, Brock Purdy stepped up to the podium. The teams will scrimmage again on Friday morning, preparing for Sunday's ex

Not at all. I didn't think Brock Purdy was good enough to get the 49ers past the Eagles before he had elbow surgery. If he fails, the 49ers are going with re-tread Darnold. Yeah...that's not gonna get it done.
The 49ers are one of the teams that made the playoffs last season that I think can miss the playoff this year.

Batting .000 with that post, but you do you, boo.

He did play against the Eagles last season, no? Did the 49ers shore up that offensive line this offseason?
This is a fantasy board not a who can be the biggest homer board so take it back to eagles land...

You have to live in a fantasy world if you think the 49ers QB room has anyone in it that can lead them to the Superbowl.
What’s funny is I feel most Eagles fans would’ve said the same thing about theirs this time last season.

I have been a little vocal about the huge questions surrounding Purdy 1) coming off a busted wing and 2) what defensive coordinators will be able to do with a full off-season of film study. But those questions will be answered after Labor Day.
What I can say on 8/10/23 is the performance Purdy put up last season was absolutely Super Bowl caliber.
He wasn't good for Mr. Irrelevant, he wasn't good for a rookie, dude was good for a seasoned near All Pro QB.
He had poise, accuracy, efficiency, aggressiveness and demonstrated incredible football IQ.
The wheels could easily fall off this year but if they don't the NFC should consider itself to be put on notice.

49er's "composite" regular season QB last season would have been 337/511 (66%) for 4,015 yards with 30 TD's and 9 INT's.
Top 15, top 10, and top 5 numbers. With those weapons and coaching, someone's going to be putting up some stats.
(I picked Purdy up for nothing in a couple dynasty SF leagues last year and holding despite some lowball offers so far)

I guess Vegas and oddsmakers around the globe are all in fantasy worlds, since there are only 2 teams with better odds of winning their conference than SF, and both of those teams have "elite" QBs while the 49ers have no one worth a roster spot at the position.
The bitterness is funny.

Luckily nobody, including the 49ers, gives a crap about what you think

I'm enjoying what he says.
Well we found one person that enjoys the pointless antagonism
I for one look forward to this becoming a fantasy and outlook conversation about Purdy again
Chaka
Footballguy
This wasn't a very neighborly post either.
Not trying to throw heat just pointing out that the only thing we can do to avoid needless antagonism is to hold ourselves to a higher standard.
Our response is the only thing we truly have control over.
Concur and I took the bait. My apologies. He was fishing and deliberately trying to get a rise and i responded

No worries. We all #### it up.
We also all fall prey to reading posts in our own voice which leads to a lot of miscommunication and unintentional antagonism.
There is no perfect solution.

I play fantasy football and have some shares of the SF passing game. Their QB situation is of interest to me.
Wingnut
Footballguy
Yeah, he's thrown some picks (3 today I think) and people are losing their minds.
The thing is, he's still just 5 months into a planned 6 month recovery/rehab program and week 1 is still a month away. And the thing about practice is there is no game plan or real play calling. Purdy is at his best IMO at playing within a game plan and executing the offense within that plan. When he has a week to prepare for a defense, and have an offensive game plan as well as his full arsenal, we will see if he was a flash on the pan or not.
I'm not worried, but I'm sure a lot of people are, and a lot are hoping like hell he regresses, because if he doesn't its lights out for the rest of the NFC. I'm just gonna watch it all play out.

Any word on how Darnold looked?
Wingnut
Footballguy
Today, or in camp overall? He only got a few reps today, as far as camp, hes looked good and meh.
I have no idea who's in the lead for QB2. I'd guess Lance at this point but who knows.
Terpman22
Footballguy
Appreciate the feedback. I'm the type to believe "practice is where you try things out" vs being a machine and making no mistakes so, camp INTs and joint practices underwhelming don't really get me too fired up. Good point about him still in recovery from the elbow surgery too. We'll see how he looks in preseason, assuming they are going to play him in games. Then go from there.

Didn't Mahomes toss many interceptions during training camp and preseason in his 2nd year with Chiefs (his first year as starting QB)? That is before he he tore up NFL and won league MVP.

Maiocco's 49ers camp observations: Purdy's bumpy practice vs. Raiders
Brock Purdy had an up-and-down session during the second day of joint practices between the 49ers and Raiders, but there shouldn’t be cause for concern.

I remember Mahomes taking a lot of heat back then. Of course the same "experts" were all over Chase for dropping a few passes in his early days.

Lombardi:
INT rate of top three 49ers' QBs at training camp...
Brock Purdy: 4.5%
Trey Lance: 2.1%
Sam Darnold: 1.1%
Purdy in the regular season last year was 2.4%. SF would like to keep that rate at 2% or lower, but Purdy was also exceptionally efficient even at 2.4%.
They'll obviously want a lower INT rate from him in the regular season, but they'll also be game-planning to facilitate that — practice is about installation and iron-out, etc. Jimmy Garoppolo was at 3.1% in his most recent 49ers' training camp (2021). By 2022, Garoppolo was at a career-low 1.3% INT rate in-season.
So these things evolve. Practice is one piece of the prep effort

FF God forbids if I make any comparison between Mahomes and Purdy when it comes to talent. I was merely making a reference of negative media news during preseason, which amounted to nothing. I dont expect Purdy to storm the league outright and win MVP.
Exactly!

Purdy QBR in pocket: 74.9 (1st in NFL)
QBR out of pocket: 59.7 (13th)
Time before throwing: 2.84 seconds (29th)
Contacted by defender percentage: 19.4% (22nd)
Goal is to get him to get ball out even quicker in 2023.

So funny but he also is the coach when asked a year or 2 ago if Jimmy G would be on the roster come Sunday, he responded with something like: I can't guarantee he or anyone else will even be alive Sunday.

What does "melting" look like? Apparently not 10 INT on 197 passes in camp.
Shanahan says he's not nervous, what about us?

Purdy 2022 camp: 5.9% INT rate (all 3rd team reps)
Purdy 2022 season (incl playoffs): 1.7% INT rate
Purdy 2023 camp: 5.1% INT rate (all 1st team reps)
Purdy 2023 season: He will be fine.
Also:
Fact that Brock Purdy's INT rate has been over 5% in both of his camps and 1.7% (very low) during actual games illustrates what 49ers are thinking: There's a significant difference between practice process and game process. Purdy also had a low turnover-worthy throw rate in 2022.
Not only are they very good but they can really bring the pass rush

Trey Lance since he graduated high school has taken a whopping 420 pass attempts
Read that again slowly...
Most guys throw that many passes in a single season or less, this guy has never played football and being asked to do too much
Niners are a Super Bowl caliber team
Shanahan says Purdy is his starting QB, guess it's time to believe him
I don't have high hopes for the Niners passing game this season, I just don't
They are going to run the ball a lot and I expect their RB2 to get some real work throughout the year to keep CMC healthy, he's the guy.on offense.

The offense will be as it has been in recent years - running the ball, and the QB getting the ball in playmakers hands quickly while they rack up the YAC.
