QB Brock Purdy, SF (6 Viewers)

Oh my goodness. Is this guy ever healthy? Elbow, shoulder, toe . . . WTH?

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.

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:
  • 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.
So multiple earlier posts in this thread had incorrect information.

As of today, Purdy will have missed 3 regular season games due to injury since becoming the 49ers starter.
 
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?

Time to step away when this kind of crap starts taking place.

You know what? You're probably right. There are things that are going on here and in life that I'm no longer abiding well, and it probably is time to step away for a moment and recalibrate. I just don't remember it being this way when I started commenting here (I think—and I can only think without proof—that things have gotten more caustic and people meaner and acting with less responsibility or care taken than when I began) but it's also my own mindset and processing of these behaviors that has led me a bit astray. I should probably keep that in mind. It's what I bring to it at times.

I should say that I don't care about being right other than that I simply want things I say to be met with either a humility or respect—or I'm not positive what, but I know that maybe what I'm seeking isn't here for me in this format. And it might have been that way all along, and I'm just realizing it, which would have been a doozy of a mistake on my end. Or I could just be aging. I was in my thirties when I started. I'm fifty-two now and things are different. So please accept this as my apology for the interlude. I'm not going to lie; I wish the other person saw fit to say the same thing, but I don't expect it nor wish to compel it. It simply is my own frame of mind and I need to be mindful of where I need to spend my time and how I'm responding to the environment that I choose to be a part of. Thanks for allowing me your attention. Peace.

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.

That's a great editing job, FBG Moderator. It's like you had me edit the Star Wars trilogy and I completely used a pen to strike through the part where Luke finds out Leia is his sister and Darth Vader is his father yet you skip ahead to where Han is dating Leia and Obi meets his fate.

I mean, that's so content deaf that . . . well . . .I won't talk about other posters. LOL. Joe wants us to cite every fact. Why don't we go through the entire argument and cite it? You'll have to restore it all, but that would give the reader and accurate picture of what was actually said and claimed and what the argument and context is behind it.

Forget it. This was clearly not for accuracy's sake.

Dude, just move on, please.

I deleted it. You running around liking every post that is antagonistic towards me is charming and you’re liking stuff that’s just incorrect. Your choice, man, and I have no problem that you feel something negative towards me given your other beliefs, but you don’t need to comment when it’s been thought better of and erased. Maybe you didn’t know, but you seem to follow me around passive-aggressively and do stuff like this, so I don’t really care about benefits of the doubt anymore.

I told FBG Moderator I’d appreciate a fair edit if he was going to remove stuff, or if that couldn’t be achieved, to delete the whole conversation. He or she did not, and the resulting dialogue that is left paints a very inaccurate picture of tone, content, and context. Edits like this on a board that asks for citations for everything (which I provide) from its unpaid commenters seems careless and thoughtless. I post a ton of good, factual stuff and take pride in it. That it is edited in the spirit of context and faithfulness to the original posts is important to me. It might not be to you, but this is an anonymous board and all I have is my tag and avatar for reputation.

Fin. If you are willing to delete your scold then I’m willing to delete this rebuttal. Your choice.

Already late stage Jimmy Garoppolo. Gets a bag, can't stay healthy, isn't mobile anymore, passes sail, lacks arm, poor accuracy, throws picks, fumbles the ball, sends all the receivers into the blue tent with hospital balls, and has thrown 8 INTs in his last five starts. Even Dave Lombardi's spreadsheets and crosstabs can't sell that Purdy can win the Super Bowl in 107 Days. Or whatever. EPA are like poll numbers anyway.

I disagree. Yeah the turnovers suck but Jimmy G was a game manager. Purdy looks like a real QB. Im glad hes back.
 
49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan on the injuries:

"Brock Purdy complained of soreness in his toe after the game. Hopefully we find out more later today."

Pudys status for TNF is uncertain

His first interception was not his fault. Need to look beyond the box scores.

If you want to look beyond the box score you would see a qb that sailed almost every pass way to high. Almost every pass was badly off target. He literally got all his wrs killed

He can't drive properly off of his foot which is affecting his throws. Also, his game relies on his mobility. He clearly isn't ready to be back yet. They should sit him and let him heal up proper, imo.

it would be malpractice to play him on a short week vs Rams. Take the L and he gets a mini bye week to heat up - Pearsall/Jennings too - with reinforcements on the way
 
I would expect Mac Jones to start this week. Sounds like Purdy had better health on Sunday, and Jones has better health today. So simply going with the healthier guy makes sense.
