This is the Joe Montana playbook. All the great things your team does are due to the great people around you and the problems are your mistakes that you need to improve on. He fits into this system perfectly.

[@btreese7]

As a Seahawk fan I hate the Niners, but I love this kid. It's going to hurt but I'll be cheering for him to do well. This is what starting 4 years in HS and 4 years in college does. His game experience and being under pressure really makes a difference! I hope Sea can draft a young QB this year who will take over from Geno in 2024 and we can get some Sea/SF battles again. Russell Wilson can learn from this kid about being genuine and human in interviews instead of the cliche machine he has become.
