Anyone want to address the fact that he spent all offseason rehabbing his throwing arm and still led them to a Super Bowl

Brock Purdy earned my respect on Sunday. 2nd year rookie going against Mahomes. He did fantastic!

I’m a rams fan. I have to say I did not like Brock for reason that are obvious. He got my respect now. Dude went from being the last pick to a damn good QB. Love how humble he seems.

49ers pass blocking needs to improve. Purdy did great given how many times the chiefs easily beat the oline

MVP of the game was KC punter who hit the heal of Luther. That win them the game😅

I don’t think the protection was Brock’s fault this time because Kyle has lost games multiple times to blitz on the last play.

Steve Spagnuolo told Albert Breer unprompted "Brock is really good. we had to change our entire defense at half time because he was identifying our coverages and ripping apart our zones." spags is a top 5 DC in the NFL and Purdy had him on his back foot the entire first half. its even more impressive because they were throwing the same concepts at Purdy that Mike MacDonold bamboozled purdy with on Christmas. Kid learns quick

People are looking for any opportunity to tear Brock down the kid is 24 years old in his 2nd year first ever Super Bowl up against one of the best defenses in the league he has every reason to hold his head up high. He finally has a full offseason and nowhere to go but up!

Patrick just came out and said Brock played really well. He did. Heartbreaking loss. Can't have the mistakes too.

I am not a 49er fan, but people keep forgetting that Purdy is only a 2nd yr player. if he is THE QB, he will get better. He's currently still better than half the QBs in the league.

Why no talk about the fact that Purdy got them two leads at the final 2 minutes and overtime And the defense could not get a stop on either

Even with all the "shoulda coulda woulda" moments, for me this drive should have been the game. Kill time, kick a game winning field goal. But for some reason, they did not drain the clock. I recall there was a play where they snapped the ball with about 20 seconds on the play clock. Even with that, on the final sequence CMC gets 5 yards on 1st down and I'm getting excited thinking "just run the ball two more times, maybe even 3 more times to get another first down, make KC use their TO, kill more time, kick a FG and game over". Maybe at worst KC has 30 seconds left but with no TO. But Shanahan inexplicably passes on 2nd down, gets 0 yards, and then has to pass on 3rd down, incomplete pass, clock stops, Mahomes has plenty of time, even almost won the game in regulation. FML

I was begging the 49ers to vary the snap count or change Purdy’s cadence. Especially in big moments you might be able to ID the blitzes so it’s not a split second decision. But no they let KC time up the pass rush. Do one or two hard counts maybe the Chiefs jump offsides.

At this point of his career; 25 games, Simms had completed 297 passes for 3117 yds (58%) 12 TDs and 18 INTs for a 69 rating. Brock at 23 games has 492 completions for 5654 yds(68%) 44 TDs and 15 INTs for a 111 rating.

Chris had an excellent analysis!! Need nore!!!

You can rip apart any singular play all you want & say "well why didn't he do that?"....Mahomes was stopped & made big mistakes on plenty of singular plays, but his team around him blocked better & played better after the 1st half than Purdy's did for him, & that was the difference. I did think Mahomes' running was a difference maker, but only because the 9ers had poor defense schemes there...they were certainly out-coached late, but they were not out-QB'd. Purdy played the more poised game vs. Mahomes, & would have been MVP had he gotten some level of help from his team, like Mahomes did. I'm gutted as a 49ers fan, but I'm also super excited about a bright future with our barely 24yo fell-from-the-sky franchise/elite QB.

analysis is accurate. Purdy recognizing he missed that means he's going to learn and get better next year.

Chiefs handled the blitz better than the 9ers because they held/tackled our free rushers lmao

In 75 minutes of football the greatest quarterback of all time managed to put up 3 more points than Purdy. And that included the 49ers fumbling the ball in FG range, the kicker missing an extra point and the 49ers fumbling a punt return at their own, what was it, 11 yard line? Purdy twice put his team in a winning position but the 49ers defense couldn’t stop Mahomes. We keep hearing how good Allen and Lamar are but they both lost to Mahomes on their home field in regulation time. Mahomes needed OT to defeat Purdy. I think they are kidding themselves if they think 46 year old Brady is beating Mahomes. Brady lost to Nick Foles so he is not infallible. If Mahomes is the GOAT going toe to toe with him in a Super Bowl and only losing in OT deserves a lot more respect than it appears Purdy will ever get.

3rd and 4....Brock could been in the center and (fake hand out) rolled outside to run to get the 1st down.

All Brock had to do was flip Christian and his route to the left side, he could have chipped the corner blitzing and run into the flat ... now you have a crosser, outside slant, and Christian all within sight and they are easy throws with the corner being chipped. Nothing else on the play needed to be changed. It would be interesting to know if that was a miss by Purdy, or if Kyle (and the offensive scheme) didn't allow him to make that adjustment.

Look at 9:18. There was no lane as 32 had his hands in the air and would have knocked down the pass attempt as well. Honestly don't see him completing that regardless of his choice. Maybe Mahomes completes it but that is far from a given. Mahomes made solid but not spectacular plays during the game but he didn't not have to face 9-10 unblocked rushers during the course of the game like Purdy did. That Chiefs defense is pretty special.

Shanahan has to wear this like the bone-head calls the Detroit Coach made at the Championship Game! He was completley out-coached by Spagnola and abandoned the Run game in the 4rd quarter.

Had an All-Pro RB (basically a RB/WR), All-Pro FB, All-Pro WR, All-Pro TE, and an All-Pro LT...this will end up being the best chance Purdy had at getting a ring and its unfortunate since it was so early in his career; but most guys play a lifetime without the opportunity to play on a roster like they had this year.

Funny hearing Chris talk now. Don't get me wrong pretty good analylist but I remember watching him play at Texas in in NFl so its funny hearing him say what a QB shoukd do 😂

Ummm am I taking crazy pills or did Brock say the read is inside out but JJ is the hot? Therefore, he threw to the correct hot read but said he wished that he ignored the rule.

Excellent Idea to " Mike " up the Ref's after the game in a " Press Conference " to go over the calls . . . Excellent Idea ! ! !

If the Niners pick up the first down on this play. They kick a field goal to take the lead leaving only 22 seconds (or less) and no timeouts for the Chiefs..

Don't get this "15 in red would've done this or done that". Chiefs won due to the defense. And the "15 in red" threw an interception and couldn've move the ball much until the niners fumbled on the punt return. Niners lost the game, rather than the chiefs won the game, but Purdy is not the one to be blamed. It's sick to see these people talking about him this way.

But it was 3rd and Jujuan !

It was only 3rd down but it would’ve made sense to just max protect and run the ball.

On the 3rd-and-5 in regulation, JG hits Aiyuk there for the first down. Now, he doesn’t make the play that Purdy did in OT to flip it to CMC for the long gain down the sideline, but if you win in regulation, no need for OT.

I'm a Seahawks fan and I think brock purdy played better then mahomes and barley lost to one of the greatest web of our time. He did all that in his 2nd year as a full starter! Dude balled out and his defense let him down.

so why is Kittle in the backfield blocking when he is usually on the line blocking? should Purdy have flipped Kittle to other side to pick up that blitz?

Brock was sacked only once. Patrick was sacked 3 times….

Y’all should just watch JT O’Sullivans QB school break does the best and most honest breakdown. Every “analyst” or show host should do the same before taking a dumb take

Mike “don’t want to crap on the guy” then does for 15 minutes. He made an error. Won’t be the first nor would he be the last.

The one thing I get tired hearing is how Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson or Matthew Stafford would be unstoppable if they were the 49ners quarterback. They neglect to mention they could not pay these guys if they were quarterbacks on the niners then they couldn't pay all the talented offensive stars. Pundits can measure height, speed and arm strength but measuring reading defenses is much harder. Pundits point out that Purdy can't run like Josh or Lamar but always forget to mention they are running many times cause they can't read defenses like Purdy and have to run when he doesn't.

I didn't understand why they didn't give the ball to CMC to run it on that 3rd & 4. Even if he only got 2 yards, they could have run at least 45 seconds off the clock before kicking the FG, or, at least made the Chiefs burn one of their last two timeouts.

BP and the whole team could've been better. Fact is, they had a chance to win in regulation and overtime but didn't get it done. To beat Mahomes led Chiefs in a big game you have to put the game out of reach, which they could've if they played mistake free and disciplined.

You guys are comparing a regular QB to a guy who's in the GOAT debate at 29 years old ... its not fair

Brock had a pretty good game, considering especially how early in his career this was… but yeah this big moment called for proper execution and he fell short this time. Gotta get back to work.

Why was the ball snapped at 9 seconds why not wait 5 to 6 more seconds rescan the defense see if you can see what they're giving up

Give me a break. The pass protection was messed up on these plays as well. Sims ain’t making these plays either. And the blitz was timed perfectly.

Could you argue that the line slid the wrong way? Could you also argue that George missed his block playing RB? Purdy definitely should've thrown it to BA, but if the protection is better, I think he puts a better ball on BA

Why didn’t Kyle call a timeout and help adjust to the blitz. If he was expecting the blitz like Chris said Kyle was saying than that’s bad coaching

IMO he probably thought that mcduffie was bluffing, and going to drop back into that space in front of aiyuk. In that case, he's thinking they were running a zone inside with mcduffie droping back and the safety coming down and then 1-1 man outside on Jauan. He never thought they'd actually leave BA open, given he's been his favorite target all year on big downs. and that's why spags is a genius. Did the one thing purdy never actually thought he'd do. This is all just my guess of course... but i think it's what happenned

If they didn’t like it, call time out!!!

The better question is why when it 2nd and 5. Why didn’t they run the ball. Run the ball and take time off the clock. They could have easily gotten a first down with 2 runs .

Your window of opportunity is running short

Look at these clowns covering for shanahan. Not one full video criticizing his play call. Brock didnt play amazing but he played well enough to win but they’re not gonna burn their buddy kyle like that.

A great coach should prepare 4 downs for 10 yards (not 3 down). If 49rd coach told B.P you have 2 downs for 4 yards...then the game is very much over. SF has one of the best running back...running 4 yards is not a problem. S is a good coach but not a great coach. As long as Mahomes is actively quarterback, SF will be beaten again again and again if they meet.

Brock had a 75 QBR against the blitz, higher than his QBR overall.. examining one play against the blitz and not looking at all of them in totality, then making a broad-sweeping statement that the difference in this game was Brock doesn't respond well to the blitz yet.. is really selective analysis/thinking..

Great QB make great plays.He's good but you got to win the Superbowls.The only expectation is Dilfer,McMahon,Simms and Theisman who had great defenses.

Watching the game back, there was definitely too many fumbled passes, and missed opportunities to get the ball to his tight end, Kittle. I do believe he was way too hesitant making touch downs and big plays…. There were times it was thrown to McCaffery and it shouldn’t half he e been. BUT I do think he did a really good job being only a second year quarterback and 23 playing in the freaking Super Bowl. Only better from this point. ❤

Lol kyle passing with no pass protection again. What a clown

He was doing good on blitzes all season long, but yeah wrong time to miss it.

We already know the Fix is in it’s too late. Steelers Seattle Super Bowl was a very obvious one. This has been going on for a long time.

As a Rams fan I'd LOVE to face Purdy for the next 10 years because I guarantee we'll win more than we lose.

If he had the pass protection he makes that play

Brock had Mahomes the goat on the ropes for Pete's sake he's 24 years old with 25 games under his belt. The league will fear him one day

Frickin analysts who don’t analyze ALL the situational attributes and their presumable outcomes. So focused on scapegoating Brock Purdy for a single play..when he was brilliant in several others. Hold my beer. McDuffey lined up in man on Ayuk pre-snap. Purdy looked left first and Ayuk is covered at the line. He looks right just before the snap and that’s when McDuffey moves into a blitzing position, uncovering Ayuk in Purdy’s blind spot. His blitz angle intersected his line of sight to the route Ayuk takes as a result. Not to mention that although the safety is 10 deep in coverage, a break on Ayuk’s route isn’t uncommon..a bait used effectively against QBs of all experience. Marlon Jackson on Tom Brady in AFC champ game to send Colts to SB 41. Disguised coverage. Did Brady catch this hell for that mistake? Hell. No. Gimme back my beer. Let’s talk NFL’s irresistible chance to orchestrate an improbable..otherwise impossible..Chiefs win for a shot at gaining 200 million new fans, known as Swifties, the majority of whom have had no previous interest in pro football. The innocence of competitive sport is a fantasy.

BA was the hot on the 3rd &4. Purdy chose poorly. He made the righ decision in not throwing to CMC, but he should have just made a simple throw to BA in that situation for the 1st down to seal the game.

Brock Purdue managed the game well. Unfortunately you need more than that to win the superbowl. I saw many plays from Mahomes that were wowing. None from Purdue, I saw him play live few months ago, same thing. The team got them there not the quarterback play.

these guys yap about 1 play for like 10 mins just repeating "brock purdy made a mistake" over and over again

Poor analysis. BA is not uncovered pre-snap on the 3rd and 4. Humphrey isnt in man coverage, but if he doesn’t blitz, he is in perfect position (within a step or two) to intercept/break up the pass to BA.

Purdy will improve. he will learn and get even better. Purdy will be in the top 5 QB's and will be perfectly good enough to take 49ers to the SB again.

havent watched yet but let me guess, simms is going to blame purdy while making excuses for his best friend, kyle. Am i right?

Purdy led his team on 3 straight scoring drives in the 4th QTR and OT which gave the Niners the lead all 3 times. In the two 3rd down and 4 plays the Niners offense lineman blew the coverage and let Chris Jones and another Chief rush Purdy unblocked!! If the O-Line blocked Chris jones for 1 second, Brock throws the TD in OT. If the O-Line pick up the blitz on 3rd and 4 in regulation, the Niners run out the clock and win. Those were not on Brock Purdy. Purdy went toe to toe with Mahomes, who needed a muffed punt, missed extra point, and Greenlaw injury to win.

It sucks that they could not get that first down but even if they did the game was not over. I know Chris likes to say it would have been because he is a Shanahan homer but if that pass connected the Niners would have most likely ran the ball 3 times to kill clock and the Chiefs 2 time outs. Following the FG, Mahomes would have had 25-30 secs to move the ball 30-35 yards for a FG to tie. With the way our defence was playing soft coverage I feel he would have picked up those yards to tie anyways.

Florio acting like he knows anything about the x's & o's is downright hilarious. Of course, given more time or a better angle to see McDuffie coming, he makes a different choice. But, that's the point of bringing a zero blitz. You force the protection and the QB to be perfect and, even if they are perfect, the receiver still has to make the play.

I’m a long time Niner fan. Was the failure to pick up the blitz just an offensive line problem? Or is it more offensive playcalling problem? We’re just Purdy missing the read?

Did you just say you were complimenting your partner because you are jet lagged? How about because he said something smart and not because you are jet lagged. Wtf

9:36 They say SF was expecting a blitz.....oh yeah??? Well, KC blitzed 40% of the time the entire game lol

Show the fricking play video

It's a learning experience. Brock will only get better this year. As he did last year.

@13:53 forward ... do they have the "anti-trust" or "class-action" play (yeah that would be a good play) .. maybe after Feb 22, corndog mustard mustard mustard

Look back at earlier snaps does the defender drop back on ayiuke

No 12 would've seen it, shanahan didn't help by not bleeding clock

The 49ers didn't disguise their blitzes that's why we got burned.

Chris said the Chiefs could handle the blitz.😂 I guess when you hold the whole game and not get penalized, you keep doing it.

Brock was sacked once in the game. Mahomes was on his back many times, sacked as well. Brock is creative, shifty, tenacious and fast. He can throw weird throws - #22 was in BPs lane on this throw. Too fast, too close to attempt touch pass there. i think going to JJ was "safer"

Re: what would happen if Brady was there; "If ifs and ands were pots and pans, there'd be no work for the tinkers hands".

What are you talking about? There is going to be very little change next season. We're won't lose a single star, probably 3 technical starters who we have replacements for and, tbf a bunch of good role players on the dline. Juan Jennings is gone, Bell steps in. Gipson is gone but because Brown is taking his job opposite Huff. We'll change our slot DB just because we didn't have one that was any good. Hopefully we can resign Ferrel but LE is a mystery. probably going to need a new OLB and also someone to fill in for Greenlaw till he's ready. We pretty much ONLY have our DLine starters returning, so there's a lot of work there. But that's losing a lot less pieces than any SB team I can remember.

3rd and 4, 2mins left. I would have ran JP Mason and push the pile, force Chiefs to take a timeout. Chiefs were gassed, fresh legs Mason could have gotten good yardage making it 4th and short. And then go on 4th as well. I would not trust the FG Kicker.

Blocked field goal, you would have said he outplayed Mahomes, and still walked off in OT ahead.

Purdy was such an upgrade at QB that they ended up in the same exact position they did with Garoppolo? Interesting

Brock Purdy going forward will look at the films and learn from it. Kyle Shanahan on the other hand no so much. 49ers need to make QB coach Brian Griese as the new HC. He was the one who told Purdy about the OT rules, yet the rest of the 49ers players doesn’t know squad, that’s on the HC. Heard Shanahan never practiced 2 min drill. What type of HC doesn’t practice 2 min drills.

Purdy was great.

Give Brock a break.. geez. He played well. He literally had 1/2 a second to decide on that 3 n 4 play. He'll learn that needs to be a boom-boom play. Yes, it hurts. oh boy it hurts. But Brock played his heart out. They all did.

This is what kills me about these guys... There's no one "rule" I don't think aiyuks first read was to the slot...

mr. f ... @16:49 you have the NFL's attention.

Please people. The niners were clearly the better team and should have won. It’s about executing. They didn’t execute. That’s all. It happens in every close game. The niners would have won easily. They just stepped on their feet. It happens. Brock is a second year quarterback who led his team to the Super Bowl. He led the league in pretty much every category. He’s a great quarterback. The narrative would be totally different if the niners won. The kid admitted his mistake. That’s admirable. Everyone makes mistakes. There’s more to life than a football game. ROMAN CIRCUS. The niners were clearly the better team. They lost. Enough said 🙏🏼

Brock Purdy he just been has QUARTERBACK why you all hating on Brock purdy. You should never gave Tge QUARTERBACK mvp because he didn't deserve but Brock Purdy perseverance the mvp

kirk "the computer" cousins would have hit that.

He can’t be compared to Mahome. You’re talking about a second year player recovering from elbow surgery.

From a #1 ranked college, backup qb, starting DB, and kicker; dad played with Otto Graham in CLE... no blocked field goal...Purdy then outplayed Mahomes with an INT and won easily...Right? Why would Kurt Warner after looking at tape say he plays the best....Do you evaluate 22 video like I do? Do you really see what his is doing..while others aren't...I do. With no injury he could beat Philly (my patient was PHIL Wentz back up); ; if not hurt last year it could be two SB due to his processing and accuracy no?... he will make a ton is all you should be concerned with because he would have tore KC up and no OT if no blocked field goal even with a muffed punt. We cold be talking about 2 SB in first two years. Let alone 1. At least an appearance. Do you think Purdy got them there due to two comeback drives beating QB's making 1,000 times more without an offseason and injury... Since I know the family of Jimmy G and OC for Ravens.. Did Purdy outplay Lamar, Allen and Tua vs KC did he not vs the stats? I know he did... and did he not outplay Mahomes if kicker didn't take too many left steps and wind up for the PAT, while KC when right behind the holder... I kicked in college, QB and DB...I said to everyone in his set up for PAT..WHAT IS THE KICKER DOING on the PAT? It got blocked. I'm not sure why you think Trey or Jimmy looked better making 50 mil more than Purdy.. Doesn't Purdy have the same 10 yard split as CMC? Mahomes lost to Brady, Brady won with Tampa after that, then He won. He should have lost this one with the kicker getting blocked no? Or are we seeing production differently? D coordinators understood this post game for KC and Andy. Why can't you see he will get paid if he plays the same...like 50 mil per year. What is your evaluation of Purdy?

SF lost because of the weakest link all season. The OL. They couldn't protect long enough. They couldn't create running lanes. Even Trent killed a drive with 2 consecutive penalties. Mahomes will make you pay if you give him the chance.

I wish they had run the ball

This play is well down the list of critical plays. The over analyzing of this distorts the reality of what happened and what is possible to happen. Off the top of my head, I can think of at least 4 other key plays that are far more worthy pivot points that decided the game. As a neutral fan, I thought Purdy played well and was clearly better than Mahomes most of the game. The MVP is farce of an award. Clearly it had to go to a defensive player as there were no standout offensive players on either team. Both defenses outplayed the offenses in a classic defensive contest.
