I think you need to settle down. He's missed like 4 games his whole life and some of those are from getting benched.

He got hurt in the middle of the NFC Championship game when he tore his UCL nerve in his elbow. It was national news, as was his choice to have an experimental surgery done to repair it instead of Tommy John surgery, which would have resulted in him missing most of the next season. Instead, the surgery was successful, and Purdy played the year. He suffered a concussion but didn't miss any games and then suffered another concussion/shoulder injury and sat the last game of the year. He then played in the playoffs until the Super Bowl. The next year, 2024, he missed Weeks 12 and 18 with injuries to his shoulder and then his elbow again. This year, he's out by Week Two.
So he hasn't missed a ton of games but his health has been front and center ever since he took over as a starter. He played eight games and tore his UCL. San Francisco then waited on him to see if he was okay late into camp and he won the job over Sam Darnold and Trey Lance. Then he lasted until Week Seven and suffered a concussion. Then it was seven more games until a concussion that turned out to be more of a neck/shoulder thing. Then he sat the last game and had trouble throwing in the Divisional Round, if you recall.
Now he's out for what is potentially a few weeks.
FBG says he's a 90th percentile healer and that's awesome, but he is hurt a lot—he just recovers quickly.

Yep, he's missed one regular season game before today.

Nope. That's wrong. He's missed three and exited early from a few, including the playoff game where McCaffrey wound up being QB.
I know you like the 49ers, but maybe try a reverse jinx to keep him healthy.
Today is number four.
It's not a lot, but his injuries are numerous. They're frequent and we often wind up talking about his health and the 49ers' health. He heals quickly, but one surgery was major. He's only been in the league three years. I get that people get hurt and that it's a rough profession. Never called him soft. It was a colloquial observation, anyway.

I dint think so. Got a link?Yep, he's missed one regular season game before today.
Nope. That's wrong.
Edit: yes he sat week 18 last year, hut I'm talking games missed due to injury, there's only been one in the reg season.

No, you're wrong. Check Wikipedia. I don't have time for this today. I'm getting this all the time, and I'm right about 95% of the time, and it wastes my time.
I'm editing. I think you ought to check before you ask me to spend my time on it. You're incorrect.

FWIW, it appears to me:
As of today, Purdy will have missed 3 regular season games due to injury since becoming the 49ers starter.
- In the NFCCG after the 2022 season, Purdy tore the UCL in his right elbow and missed more than half the game.
- In 2023, he was held out of the week 18 game to rest because the 49ers had already clinched the #1 seed.
- In 2024, he suffered a right shoulder injury in week 11 and missed week 12.
- In 2024, he suffered a right elbow injury in week 17 and missed week 18.
- In 2025, he suffered a turf toe injury in week 1 and is definitely going to miss week 2. He may miss additional games, but we don't know that yet.

He was rested that game because the 49ers had clinched the #1 seed. He was not out due to injury.
Keep this 100% on football and not arguments with each other.

I think you both should stop it. My Weiner is bigger than the both of yours combined, btw.

Hey you didn’t like my post Uncle Leo .. wanna fight about it or what?
My bad. Placed the

Nah .. I think Purdy is going to be just fine, once he comes back. Don’t bail on your boy over a toe injury man!!
(Yes, that is all you are talking about right?)

Ok. Now, Wingnut .. all you have to do is say “ok” and “let’s move forward”
And we can all move along talking about football - as if we’ve ever known anything, ever? Lol.
For the thread?
Are you guys paying up for Mac Jones? Are you worried about how much of a boner Shanahan had for him? Or do you believe it’s still Purdy’s job?

Back on topic.
Kyle Shanahan after todays game on the chance of Brock Purdy playing next week against Arizona:
“I think there’s a chance. But we got to see how the toe goes. It’s very up to debate. So we’re just taking it a day at a time.”

I'm 57. Been doing this a long time. When I start having this type of exchange either in digital form or in person I know something's not quite right.
This is a great hobby, but it's not worth getting remotely unsettled about all this at this point in life.
And I'm not saying you're right or wrong.
All the best.
One last time in this one - please keep it 100% on Football and not shots at other posters.
