Ed McCaffrey explains why Brock Purdy is 49ers franchise QB with ZERO hesitation 👀

full episode: • Ed McCaffrey On Christ...

[@drumguy1960]

LOL Chris Simms....A guy whom Brock Purdy surpassed his entire career in one season. Consider the source.

[@Philip_LasVegas]

Chris Simms a clipboard jockey at best

[@RDSports5]

More like one game.. I used to like Simms' takes, but he's going the route many former players have gone which is to just make shock takes, clickbait material, but without any shred of logic to any of it. Its pathetic really

[@johncaputo5538]

Who cares about Chris Simms opinion? A mediocre QB. 2005 was his only good year. He had injuries, of course, but still mediocre.

[@lulugust8140]

​@@RDSports5scam Newton😂😂😂

[@judshuttie70]

I don't mind him having his opinion the opinion was consistent with each guy, for example he knocks Tua says he can't go higher because in his one playoff game he was bad in freezing cold v cheifs, yet dak is top eight and he shits the bed every playoffs he has a rookie 20 having never taken a snap but he needs to see more from guys like purdy, so really he's saying playing great in NFL isn't as important as being athletic😂. I do wonder if Simms is knocking purdy subconsciously because he knows Kyle is way smarter than himself so he has to justify that by giving Kyle all the credit because he dosnt like to think he's so far behind smart coaches so he justifies Kyle by being so far ahead of himself by telling himself Kyle's just that much better than every other coach lmao. Or maybe he's trying to help Kyle lowball purdy next year even though Kyle will pay Brock whatever it takes.

[@dr.deborahbarr4389]

Agree with this. I’m so tired of the hypotheticals it is what actually happens that matters, and we all know football has a certain amount of luck to it.

[@drumguy1960]

The two best to EVER do it was Tom Brady and Joe Montana...Neither of which had elite physical traits. I often think that having elite physical traits hinders a QBs development because they rely on their physical aptitude rather than properly refining their game. Who knows I could be wrong.

[@neochezhian]

Brock has elite acceleration escaping the pocket. Pretty sure that’s a physical trait, Brock arm is underrated. Not saying he has a top arm, but it’s way better than anyone credits him

You're right. Success in the NFL takes more than physical aptitude.

[@tflo75]

Purdy was the best QB in the NFL last season..and he performed at that level despite the 49ers oline ranking in the bottom of the league in terms of pass protection. Purdy exceptional anticipation and elite quickness within the pocket is why. Purdy is the best thing to happen to the 49ers since Eddie D hired Bill Walsh.

[@Austin080]

I totally agree!

[@HockeyDudeJames2]

That's hard to argue against even if you are not 💯% a believer.

[@Dayton808]

He will win a superbowl before this kid retires I’m just hoping he’s a 49er when he does it.!

[@Paul-tp9yh]

Purdy will start racking up super victories this season, no telling how many there will be.

[@archierieser4348]

Brock got us to the super bowl

[@roccov447]

The BS take is Purdy has maxed out, in 1 1/2 seasons, and QB's like Lawrence have so much more upside but just hasn't shown it, maybe never will. They intentionally forget to mention a major off season arm surgery and Brock saying his arm did not feel 100% till mid season.

[@neochezhian]

And Brock is only 24 they talk like he is some 27 year old

[@Austin080]

Never heard of a QB maxing out that has never had a off season as the starter 🤣😂. Purdy is going to be better this coming season now that he finally has this 1st off season under his belt.

[@jinnij.caiman]

Yeah he’s smaller.. same size, same height same weight as Jalen Hurts… but it’s never been held against him. Jalen holds his size up top Brock hold his in his legs. Baby Bosa. Brock also changed his throwing mechanics in between his college to rookie season. It was basically an experiment that worked. It was neat to read the article back in 2022. If I can find it I’ll post it.

[@mrmichael972]

His work on his throwing mechanics between college and coming to the Niners is something that almost no one talks about. I read that too.

[@HockeyDudeJames2]

Purdy would be all time great if he had the weapons and o line Hurts has.

Cant wait to see Pearsall elevate Brock's game.

[@GeorgeStammerjohn]

Or the other way around. Ricky didn't have good college QBs

[@RDSports5]

@@GeorgeStammerjohn Exactly! Mertz was AWFUL by basic NFL prospect standards, and yet Ricky still found a way to be productive and stay healthy enough despite the 3-4 medicine balls per game at Florida. With a guy like Purdy... Pearsall can be a perennial pro bowler, and maybe some day an all-pro

[@Austin080]

Purdy is going to elevate Ricky Pearsalls game if anything.

[@3sha214]

Or Brock elevate Pearsall just like elevated Aiyuk. Aiyuk was good in his 2nd year but not as good and wasn’t Aiyuk without Purdy. It was all about Deebo. I am curious how Deebo is going to play this season knowing he was about to get traded .

[@michaelparker6240]

Brock in this offense is a top ten qb period hes a winner and basically kirk cousins with athleticism

[@williamroberts6803]

Brock Purdy in this offense is number one rated quarterback in the nfl. Number one in plus twenty yards throws. Number one in outside the numbers. Fastest split ten at 1.53 seconds.

[@ORagnar]

One thing you don't often hear is that Brock is good at escaping defensive linemen when they have him in their grasp. He's strong enough to bamboozle them from time to time. o-)

[@michaelgeraghty3989]

Chris Sims normally doesn’t make boneheaded comments. Ranking Purdy 17th based on his first two years is a world class boneheaded take. Compare his first two years numbers with the all time greats, much less Dak, Lawrence, Goff, Lamar, Russ, Josh Allen and Burrow. Purdy’s numbers are better than all of them in their first two years, and they also played on good teams. Purdy’s numbers are a little better than Herbert’s stellar numbers, and similar to Mahomes - after he sat for a year learning from Alex Smith, who really helped him. Purdy’s already Top Ten, and if year 3 is similar, he’s definitely Top Five.

[@franciscopacobarreras9270]

I’ll take my 17th best QB in the league over 16 guys ranked ahead of him 😊

[@williamroberts6803]

He would be a franchise quarterback on any team if it was up to me. He led the Super Bowl from the fourth quarter on ever time he was in he led when he left the game. Defense let him down.

[@anthonywopaness2927]

I guess it comes down to - do you want a QB that looks good on paper or the field, a QB that can throw before he can think or one that thinks before he throws

[@Paul-tp9yh]

Purdy is second only to Mahomes, and that will be as battle for the top spot for a long time/ I expect Purdy to get his mvp this year to continue to make his case.

[@woodrowsmith3400]

Ok...this is from a Tacoma dude who's been a Seahawker since 1977. Brock Purdy is the best SF has had under center since Steve Young. You got to understand where this is coming from...but I hate the guy three days a year...home game, away game, playoffs. On the other days I like the guy...like watching him. He is a real gamer. He gets the entire picture. There have been other guys I hated for two or three days a year...Howie Long comes to mind. Just despised him twice a year, respected the daylights outta him on the other 363. One can only hope Brock will stay healthy. If he does, HOF will be fitting him for a blazer.

[@danielrodriguezjr2263]

Checks out ..he looks like one to me

[@Suga_j_fitness15]

Video is spot on

[@918guy]

TLDR: Purdy sets the tone. The defense makes amends. The biggest sign for people that take an objective look is how HUGE a gap there is in passing attempts when comparing him to his peers. The fact he is QB1 in a balanced but run first (at least in the regular season😂) offense yet still has the yardage and deep ball metrics he does should carry more weight than the talking heads want a casual fan to know. When statistically a QB has a value of 9.9yds the moment he drops back it is a good indication of high percentile QB play.. that value of nearly a first down is completely independent of what defense its against or the play being run! Also I want to put in this comment my prediction on what will be overlooked by many. The footwork will be even more consistent. Purdy will have a bit more built in freedom for some quick hot reads. Kittle will have over 10 TDs . At least four 49ers will have at least 1000 yds receiving. Bosa and Floyd will have at least 25 sacks combined. Final note that I think will be felt will be that Purdy will leave zero doubt that its his offense and it will be quite clear the goal is to keep their foot on the opponents neck and not let off. Which unironically will lead to more rest for the starters because they get to be cheerleaders for a large number of 4th quarters. The defense will have multiple games in which they dont allow a touchdown with some actual shutouts this season.

[@anthonyhilton4168]

Look guys, Chris is doing the bidding of Lynch and Shannahan to tamp down Brock’s expectation to reset the Qb market.

[@Austin080]

Exactly right! Also to help keep Brock a level head and not a big head. Don't think it is possible that Brock can get a big head. I think he will be team friendly with his contract inorder to not bust the team up too bad.

[@user-ez8wj8gi3e]

My opinion is Brock is number two behind Mahomes who was runner up in the Superbowl. If my Niners would have won the Superbowl, I would say Brock is number one

[@ninerempire3398]

That is delusional

[@joshshepherd5660]

I know enough about Brocks ability to play football. We are good there. What I wanted to know is, how does the team respond to him? How does he run a practice? Because those things tell you AAAAAAYYYYYLOT about a guy. Is he pushing/gently nudging everyone to get to as much team time as possible, is he working hard every rep, is he the guy the whole team silently turns and looks at when someone stands up and says"Hey! I need to talk to the leader of this team!"....Thats how how you know who you have at QB1.

[@NK-qn6pq]

according to Grant Cohn, he is doing those things. Yes, THAT guy actually said something nice about purdy

[@dr.deborahbarr4389]

I think Chris Simms should apologize to Brock Purdy, not for his rankings but because of what he said about him in the Super Bowl. I also felt disrespected as a fan because he basically said we were all watching through rose colored glasses! Bad look for him. Wonder if he lost a bunch of money on that game 🤔

[@briani8785]

A qb in the mvp discussion last year with phenomenal stats at his age is 17? Got it lol

[@Abby_Normal_1969]

I remember when the 9ers picked Trey Lance, spending a ton of draft capital. It seems to me, all the commentators who loved that pick - some saying that it was a super bowl winning pick - seem to hate on Purdy. If that is an indication of their critical thinking, then I am glad they are hating on Purdy. I would worry if they liked him. I wonder how many of those commentators hold the passing record for an NFL team? None I suspect. And to all those commentators saying that any QB could put up numbers in the 49er system with the 49er weapons, then explain to me how many passing records were set by Jimmy and Trey? Oh, none?

Chris Simms is blaming Brock Purdy for the SB loss? Did he watching the game???

[@robertdavis7398]

Funny how QB’s who couldn’t make it in the NFL are somehow seen as good at evaluating the same talent they never had. Notice when they poop on Brock’s game, they always use hypotheticals. Never any facts or data. As a man of color, this used to be called covert racism when someone was attacked with hypotheticals and not facts. Somehow Jordan Love is the next coming of Football Jesus and Brock is 17th… ok … sure.

[@stevel2245]

All you have to do is look at Sam Darnold. He has all the elite physical gifts. He is almost there, but is inconsistent. He didn't beat out Purdy.

[@passportpapi713]

They will find out how good he is when Pearsall and cowing flourishes with Aiyuk holding out to begin the season. Purdy is in the stage of his development where he is now experienced enough to elevate the players around him without his superstars. Just give him some talent and watch the new talent become supserstars. Pin this . And let come back here by week 8 My Hot take is Brock Purdy will be battling for the number 2 QB in the league behind Pat mahomes. Mahomes only has the superbowls to push him further ahead, but let’s not forget Mahomes first few years he had a super offense as well, with hill , Kelcey elite oline and all pro rbs in Kareem hunt and lesean McCoy. Not to mention they also had a decent Sammy Watkins and the next year the speedster hardman to start his career. A little premature but if purdy can some how manage to get 2 superbowls before mahomes can get 3-4 , then the conversation will begin with who is the best, Mahomes or Purdy??

[@Austin080]

BA will get signed before training camp starts up.

[@passportpapi713]

@@Austin080 yeah well it’s in his best interest bc if he doesn’t and pearsall comes in and just has 75% of BA’s production, bye bye BA. He will just give the 49ers a chance to see what life is like with his replacement and if his replacement balls out, he loses his leverage and could possibly open up a wide door for another realistic trade .

[@onceuponareset-ho7fg]

There is still more levels to how good Brock Purdy's QB talent is going to progress in the coming years. Kyle Shanahan has dumbed-down Purdy's game in many respects, and has stunted Brock's growth as as a QB, by keeping Brock on training wheels. Kyle doesn't trust Purdy with more of his offense, because Kyle lacks the game management skills that would allow Purdy to use even more of his skillset. Kyle doesn't even trust Purdy to use an effective hard count, or call an audible at the line from time to time.

[@SuperReviews4you]

15+ QBs in the NFL would look like franchise quality QBs with the offense and coach the 49ers have. He is a good QB probably around the 12th best QB in the league. I have him better than Love and Lawrence. 17th like Simms said was too high but anyone putting him top 8 isn't objectively looking at his game only the stats.

[@neochezhian]

Brock last season had historic season in efficiency. Not sure any other top 15 QB can beat a historic efficiency season. Kyle cannot call the same plays with other QBs

These stats do the best job at isolating QB play. “He can’t play without Deebo” 0.242 epa/play WITHOUT Deebo on the field which would rank 3rd in the league +6.18 CPOE WITHOUT Deebo On the field whch would rank 1st in the league “He can’t play without CMC” 0.4 EPA/Play without CMC on the field which would be first by an extremely wide margin +8.62 CPOE without CMC on the field which would rank first by an EXTREMELY wide margin “Jimmy G had success on the Niners too” Jimmy’s EPA/Play between 2017-2022 was graded at .209 which is way less than Brock’s 0.338. Jimmy’s Passer Rating from 2017-2022 is 97.05 which is 15.95 points less than Purdy’s 113 last season Jimmy’s TD% was 5.0 and Purdy’s is 7.0 Jimmy’s Y/A was 8.3 and Purdy’s is 9.6 Jimmy’s QBR was 55.71 and Purdy’s is 72.7 Jimmy’s CPOE was -0.725 and Purdys is +2.5 Jimmy’s PFF Grade averaged at 73.48 and Brock’s is 88.4 Jimmy’s Big Time Throw% was 2.98 from 2017-2022 and Purdys is 5.8 Jimmy’s Adjusted Comp% was 74.38 and Purdy’s is 78.3 Yes, Brock Purdy has a great system. Yes, Brock Purdy has great weapons. While these are all true, we have ways of isolating QB play & when we do we can see Brock is a great QB individually. If you dont believe in advanced data and analytics, we can also compare him to the QB he repalced who had the same scheme and weapons, and no suprise there, he blows him out of the water in every statistical measure. Now my 2 cents... What ppl fail to realize is that Brock has done all this in his FIRST season as a full-time starter. AND he did this behind the 22nd ranked O-Line. And it's only that high because Trent Williams is a alien @LT. You take out his grade and Brock had one of the worst pass-blocking O-Lines in all of football. AND let's also not forget, this was done coming off of a severe arm injury that most baseball players have a hard time recovering from. The injury wiped out his entire off-season so he didn't even have a chance to really improve upon his rookie campaign. His entire off-season was strictly rehabbing just to be ready for training camp in 2023. So riddle me this...if Brock actually has a chance to work on his craft, enhance his play, timing & correct his mistakes for an entire off-season, do you think there's not a chance for him to improve upon those numbers?? And what happens when he gets a chance to stack off-seasons on top of each other....what's he going to look like in his fourth year? Fifth year??
