Alex Smith was asked if he thinks Brock Purdy will win a Super Bowl:
“Yeah, I think he’s got a great chance. This is a guy that I think will always give you a chance to be in contention. Look at last year, if that’s not an example— they had no business doing what they did last year. Given all the adversity and who they were playing against. Look at the division. I still think you can make an argument that Kyle Shanahan is Coach of the Year last year with the job he did. Look at the way Brock played. Again, he’s always going to give you a chance vs anybody. I still think Brock’s best days are ahead and I think he has the skill set to play high level football for a long time.”

🚨#49ers Mike Evans on having Brock Purdy as his quarterback:
“I love Brock, man. He’s a big reason why I came here and I said that in my initial zoom call with you guys.
He throws a really great ball.
I’m getting the timing down with him now.
He’s super smart.
He’s about his business.
I’m looking forward to having a great connection with him this year.”

2010s All-Decade Team
2x Super Bowl appearance
One franchise.
One of the greatest 49ers linemen ever.

Doc Rivers with probably the realist words ever said about LeBron -
“With MJ we allowed him to grow into greatness. With LeBron we didn’t & he STILL over achieved. He’s had some of the biggest clutch games in NBA history yet no one knows it.” 💯👑
Heard podcasters talking about how poorly Harden played in the first round, I thought he was fine. His rebounding and active haves on D is such a bonus they hadn’t hard previously. The turnovers are bad no doubt, but I think he made up for them
#CBJ is 11-4-3 this season against the current top-7 teams in the NHL standings.
Colorado, Dallas, Carolina, Buffalo, Minnesota, Tampa Bay and Pittsburgh.
Reunion: The #49ers are signing back one of their former stars, agreeing to terms with LB Dre Greenlaw, sources say.
The former SF draft pick spent last season with the #Broncos and now returns on a 1-year, $7.5M deal.
Ima Shumpert says LeBron is the ‘Chat GPT’ of the NBA 👀
“This the best way I can describe shorty. He is Chat GPT. You can ask him anything, he knows. He know the coaches, assistants, the player development… it took me a month to get used to him saying X1, X2, X3. I’m like bro stop… I went from Melo, to Bron. To learn from lead by example to learn from example but if you don’t get it, I’ll come teach it to you. Most athletes better than you give you one pointer, if you can’t do it, give it to me. Bron will give you the learning curve”

DI players in last 30 seasons to score 25+ points & have 2 or fewer turnovers in three straight games, with each coming against an AP Top 25 opponent:

That’s it.
Rex Ryan on Brock Purdy:
“He’s the most underrated quarterback in the league and it ain’t close. No quarterback in the league throws with more accuracy, timing, and anticipation than this guy… Brock Purdy is special.”
