Kinda ratches-up the urgency to get JJM out there on that rook $$

and what do all those teams have in common?  the niners have to be honest in what they have in Purdy and not fall victim to the have to over pay for mediocrity mentality.  they would be better off bringing Darnold back at 35 million year than Purdy at anything close to those numbers.  hes good, but he isnt rare or special and he wont carry a team once all the real talent is gone.

I agree about Purdy, but any team without complementary talent isn't going far. We've seen that QBs can't carry a bad o-line unless the defense is picking up the slack, and so forth. Even the Bengals' appearance in the Superb Owl was an aberration; Burrows had a s**t line, but was on a young team playing over their heads from top to bottom.

Absolutely!

Plus, when we're not in it, mocking it has become reflex...!
