Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Jimmy GQ...this was a 1-10 team when he took over...they just dropped 44 on the Jags...49ers are going to be relevant again in 2018...
Jimmy Garoppolo - QB - 49ers
Jimmy Garoppolo completed 21-of-30 passes for 242 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception in the Jaguars' Week 16 win over the 49ers.
He also rushed for a first-quarter touchdown. Garoppolo’s pocket poise and accuracy continued to stand out in his fourth straight winning start, this one most impressive because it came against the NFL’s very best defense. His touchdown passes went to day-three rookies Trent Taylor and George Kittle, a testament to just how little Garoppolo has around him. Garoppolo worked the middle of the field with tight ends, fullbacks, and slot receivers, and his quick release allowed the Jags' defense to get home for only one sack. In 2018, Garoppolo will get back Pierre Garcon and the 49ers will likely add a red-zone upgrade. Garoppolo will draw another difficult test when he travels to L.A. to face a stingy Rams pass defense to close out the year.
