Great throw. Forbes was in decent position.

Purdy is really good, I don't know if he's great, but very good for sure. 

But since he's a 7 rd pick many here say he's not worth keeping.

Why not blitz? What do you have to lose, really?

Ron's afraid they know the only blitz he deploys, the single delayed, is too predictable?

[London Kev]

Wow, sometimes you just have to appreciate a great throw and catch, even if it is against us.

poor Sam.  Still he's had a decent day

For sure , thought for the most part he done okay. But unfortunately it’s going to be to hard for us to ignore Williams or maye in the draft. 

[GoDeep81]

****. That was good coverage too. 

[shakinaiken]

Honestly, very decent coverage by Forbes. Better throw, good receiver

I know they’re not the same player but if you all remember the game in Buffalo with Haskins vs Allen, Josh Allen looked quite bad for over a whole season during that year, really two full ones before he turned into a good QB. 
 

I lived in Buffalo at that time and nearly the whole fan base was ready to move on from Allen. 

I see a lot of the same with Howell as far as how he’s played so far his career. 
 

I’m not fully in either camp with sticking with Howell or drafting a QB round 1, but sometimes it does take a couple years of playing. 

 

Kinda hard to compare Allen's trajectory to sams. Allen was a first rounder with unbelievable traits, and really was when it would click, not if

I think many think he's not a rookie, and truly he is

No he's not.

But Josh Allen has prototypical size, athleticism and arm strength.  
 

That buys you more time to develop.  Because your ceiling is HOF. 
 

Sam doesn’t have those traits, so he won’t get the development time.  

[Hdf561]

If I’m the 49ers I’m embarrassed they are not killing us…I’ve seen it live and in person they ain’t that good 

[cougs]

SF is just playing with us like a cat would with a mouse. They know they can score on any play and they are just using this game as practice. Only one game left of this sh$&&@&$/:;

[davo]

Sam could play well with that amount of time to throw , tough to evaluate him properly.

Bryce Young has 47 yards passing and 38 yards in sacks taken? Ooof

That’s not entirely true.  Plenty of first round picks with incredible traits, it never clicked.

But you get more leeway when you have those traits.

And he was a can't miss pick

They peaked early.

He had an entire season of NFL practice and learning before that game. He is not a rookie. Period.

Sam has had plenty of time to throw today and has made some great plays. The problem with him is he rarely makes enough great plays or he makes to many mistakes to overcome with great plays

Says who? Thor Nystrom?  He’s like 4-11.  Of course he could miss.

We all need to remember it's an illusion, or at least a random aberration,  we get every season...like when we beat tom Brady and pats with the under center....fools gold

 

Hopefully we're headed for the real thing starting this off season 

 

Idk, not hard to see the back of this magic trick and how it works.

 

SF doesn't have a QB on level of any of the young stars in the AFC, no one in the NFC does.  Teams get humanized really fast when their QB is inconsistent, ask Fallas.

 

We are wasting this are of not needing an elite QB in NFC right now and teams like SF are supposed to be built for it, I don't expect it to stay after this drive, but it was close for up to this point.

 

If we tried to stabilize the defense after Bears game by firing JDR then, being inconsistent wouldn't of been that bad compared to just bad.

Can't wait for us to trade up 3 spots for Caleb Williams to get similar results next year
