About 3 seconds wasted fighting instead of just falling down.

If the Packers do wind up losing this, they are going to be thinking a long time about the two dropped pick sixes, the failed 4th and 1 and the missed FG.
The SB winner will probably come from the AFC

Oh Jordan.

Either throw the ball away or run forward towards the sideline.

He would have probably picked up between 5-10 yards just running forward towards the sideline.

And he could have thrown it away.

That was bad.

He is a rookie trying to be a hero.

He arrived ahead of schedule. Hopefully he will learn.

Thought I heard a stat on him during the season indicating he's not good when he's out of the pocket

Well, some teams in the playoffs should be happy with their young QBs. These guys have shown they can lead the franchise moving forward. Stroud had an excellent season. Love certainly looks worthy of being the next franchise guy in Green Bay. Purdy leading his team to the NFC Championship two straight years.

Our franchise…. Well we’ve got a dud 1st round QB and a portion of our fanbase just sits around here and shits on every throw these others QBs make when they know deep down our guy will never be a playoff winner. Pretty sad state of affairs.

How about the QB the Steelers took 242 spots in front of him? How many playoff wins does he have?

Didn't mention that as a defense of Kenny.

Just saying he is not elite without all the parts in place.

Yeah and he’s not a rookie…I have to keep remembering that.

Just a first year starter.

But Favre tried to make that throw all the time.

Must be a Green Bay thing…lol.

Hey I flat out said the TD pass Love threw is a throw Kenny could never make.

Which put some weird jinx on him because the rest of the night, he threw like Kenny…

We are all Lions fans now.

Including Jerome Bettis. Did you know he was from Detroit?

Purdy wasn’t spectacular tonight but he made a lot of plays in tough elements.

Oh and back to back NFCCG as Mr. Irrelevant.

Not bad I guess…

Not a chance. SF wins big. not a good matchup for Detroit. For starters, SF’s pass rush vs Goff’s need to have a clean pocket combined with the SF coverage LBs.

This all assuming Detroit doesn’t get upset by the Bucs.

True.

But to my eye, Purdy is hardly Mahomes, Burrow, Allen, Lamar.

He’s just not on their level. He’s below that. He’s not putting a team with less talent on his back alone and winning the biggest games.

Helluva a lot better than the scrubs on our roster. I have to keep telling myself that Mason looking lights out is not Mason being lights out but merely a reflection of just how bad it’s been.

I get why people were so upset by the Buff loss (tho I wasn’t). Complain about Tomlin all you want in that game, and there ARE legit reasons, but Mason on a team vs Allen on a team when Allen is on? Get the fuck out of here. That’s a loss.

I don’t care who the HC is, until we have a legit QB, we’re not going far. Just the way it is.

I doubt the 49ers will ever win a SB with Purdy.

It might be now or never for Lamar. He needs a ring to legitimize his skillset as a PS QB, IMO. Seems like a likeable dude.

I would enjoy seeing Allen get a ring. Mega talent with some question marks who also needs a ring. Epic showdown today Chiefs vs Bills

I won't be surprised if the Chiefs win it all again. Hope they don't.

Purdy should have 2 pick sixes tonight.
Purdy has been very erratic. This the worst I've seen him play.
Oh he’s been far worse than he played last night.

Far worse. The Cleveland game dude was brutal. Against PJ Walker.

It’s very simple. Purdy is surrounded by the most talented supporting cast in the NFL. By a lot. The 49ers have zero weaknesses on either side of the ball.

When you are surrounded by superstars at every level, Purdy has embraced his role as a little point guard and is performing that role very well.

Yesterday, Brock is very lucky he didn’t get blown out. He tried to throw 2 pick sixes and Green Bay didn’t make those plays. Gift plays.

Where Purdy is dangerous is that in quite a few games, he does really stupid, Tua-esque things and will give opponents chances at easy scores.

If you don’t put Purdy away and make those plays, Brock usually plays very good football late in games and the mistakes go away.

That’s exactly what happened yesterday.

If you took the current Steelers offense, took away the Najee binky Coach loves, because he wants to be him or some weird shit, and bring in Trent Williams, start Pick, Warren and DJ, it would look very close to the offense we saw last night.

Well, you have to get rid of both Mason and Kenny Touchdown too and put in Purdy. Although, if SF has a QB coach that can actually do things to help a QB Kenny QB might figure a few things out rather than being left hung out to dry by Coach Pouting Imbecile running away from his responsibilities.
