I feel bad for Brock Purdy. Both his detractors and supporters are far too zealous. He's in the center of this tug of war between people who are certain he's going to fail and people who think he's the next great Niners QB. Can't you just let the kid play, and see what happens?

Why would lyles agree to less than half a race though? Tyreek came at him first and he should have e to go run a 100 or 200m race.

[@tengille]

Tyreek is fast for the NFL. I think people are lost on just how much different track is to NFL DK lost to a bunch of guys that didn't even make the Olympic trials, let alone make it to the Olympics, and DK didn't beat them at the start. Tyreek isn't 10x faster than DK. And Lyles is the best sprinter, on Earth, currently. Its literally someone saying "well I was good in high school" versus a pro. I think if Tyreek, after high school, said "I'm running track and focusing on that only", he could have developed Olympic speed. But he didn't, and he made bank in the NFL. Lyles will make some money on sponsorships but he'll never get that bag Tyreek got (most Olympians aren't even millionaires). I was the captain of my high school hockey team, I'm as good as an NHL player, right? Same thing /s

Not only was Brock Purdy playing against a good Saints starting defense with only backups, he also has not practiced with said backups during training camp (because he takes the first team reps). Also, Kyle Shanahan wasn't calling the plays.

[@scootermcgee6375]

Beatles were a rock band. People always focus on the early Beatles (1960-1965). Post 1965, the Beatles were a rock band, a pop band and generational icons and everything in between. Led Zeppelin were a hard rock band. Everything taken into consideration (quality, longevity, cultural impact, etc.) Beatles are the “best” rock band of all time. No real debate here. Only the stones and their longevity could be argued to truly compete. For the record, it’s all pop music.

[@jimchilton99]

I point out that the '83 draft. Marino was the last QB taken. Elway, Blackledge, Kelly, Eason, O'Brian and Marino. It has more to do with the system than the QB. Brock Purdy starts for only the Niners; he does not start over Mahomes, Hurts, or Allen. Purdy succeeds because of the team and the philosophy. It may be that Denver is the system that works with Nix. It has much less to do with the man than it does with the system. But then again, Blackledge, Eason, and O'Brian. Clearly, none of them found a system that worked.

Purdy “succeeds” because he’s surrounded by pro bowlers. And when I say succeed I mean in the regular season, against bad teams, when it’s not raining.
