Purdy was unimpressive.....I don't see him being that much better than Jimmy G honestly. Then again, he probably doesn't need to be...
SF played poorly and the product they put on the field and final score reflected that. If they continue to have a questionable gameplan and coaching they will either get bouned next week or in the SB. I don't have a ton of faith they'll hit the switch in a week and reach their full potential like they have in the regular season. And Purdy is absolutely an upgrade over Jimmy G, and it's not even close. You clearly haven't watched enough games. I've watched them all and about 2/3 of his offensive snaps via the All-22 and Purdy can do things Jimmy could only dream of.

The Purdy narrative is a lazy one. He didn't play his best ball, but delivered when it mattered. He was very good on that GW drive and he didn't turn the ball over all game. He outplayed Jordan Love, period. GB had all these opportunities, and Jordan Love should've capitalized, and he didn't.
