49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

It's crazy to me that a QB that has taken his team to 2 straight NFC championships in his first 2 years has to be defended.
Talking about it in terms of what? He's not a good QB because he's 2-3 in the playoffs?
Why is he beyond criticism? When they choked badly in the playoff, where is the criticism? If Purdy loses on Sunday, national media will crucify him. I still don’t get Lamar Jackson lovefest. He is an exciting athlete but not a great QB. He is a great runner and has good lifetime TD to INT ratio but all other QB stats are mediocre. He is greatly benefiting from outstanding defense and OLs but no one brings these up. He is benefiting as much from Ravens outstanding defense and OLs as Purdy from great Niners skill players.
I don't know that I buy the premise that Lamar Jackson has never been criticized. I think he's taken plenty of criticism that he isn't a great passer, his accuracy specifically, in the past.
Not like Purdy. The media and internet pundits are slandering him incessantly since last Saturday. If it was Jackson not Purdy who brought his team from behind, the national media and pundits would had nothing but praised Jackson. I have never seen a QB who engineered winning drive criticized harshly like Purdy. If Ravens lose on Sunday, headline in the media will be “Ravens lose despite valiant efforts from Jackson”
One game to get to the Super Bowl. I think he can do it. It will be amazing to see him in the Super Bowl if we get there. We have a good chance.
I had this exact conversation the other day.
With a Cyclone fan!
Very odd.
Let's Go 49ers!
Tim Brando just gave Brock Purdy a good plug on the Purdue @ Rutgers MBB game on FS1. Mentioned that he called a break-out game (w / Spencer Tillman) for BP when he was a freshman in Ames, and he has not looked back since.
Please count “almost intercepted passes” against Jackson like the haters normally do to Purdy. Also, since he played very poorly for 3 quarters, they’d better criticize Jackson even if he makes 4th quarter come back with same intensity that you did to Purdy
So Lamar is the undisputed MVP, right?
Not really interested in hating on the guy, but I guess if he’s the MVP, this loss is his fault?

Baltimore didn’t show up at all. Kelce was in their head even BEFORE the kickoff. Masterful mind games by Kelce, then he comes in and bats .1000 on top of that.
If Purdy had a game like this and they lost today he’d be mercilessly blamed as if he were the only player on the team. It’s two different realities.
Is it already decided? I'm mean once the playoffs start there isn't any precedence of the leader not winning?
Voting happens after the season ends and before the first playoff games.
